In this homily, I reflect on the two ways we come to God — through fear or through love — and how Jesus calls us not slaves, but friends. Drawing from John 15, I share a personal moment from my time as a priest that changed how I understood God's presence in my weakness. If you've ever felt like God is waiting to punish you, this one is for you. ## Actions - request_transcript: `POST https://stenobird.com/v1/public/podcasts/sunday-and-daily-mass-homilies-by-fr-aristotle-7073717/episodes/5-08-10-from-slaves-to-friends/transcription-requests` — Idempotently request low-priority transcript generation for this episode. - read_markdown: `GET https://stenobird.com/podcast/sunday-and-daily-mass-homilies-by-fr-aristotle-7073717/5-08-10-from-slaves-to-friends.md` — Read the agent-friendly Markdown representation of this episode resource.
