Ep 52 - Running With the Cloud of Witnesses
In this episode, Father Isaac reflects on the Christian life through the lens of the Boston Marathon. While the fleet-footed front-runners impress, it’s the stragglers — battling pain with grit and fueled by the cheers of the crowd — who reveal the true heart of perseverance. Just like them, we too are cheered on by a “great cloud of witnesses” — the saints and our loved ones who’ve gone before us.
But the race of faith isn’t about perfect performance or moral self-improvement. It’s about keeping our eyes fixed on Christ, trusting that God works through us even in our weakness, and letting our struggles unite us to His cross.
📖 “Let us run with perseverance the race marked out for us, fixing our eyes on Jesus, the pioneer and perfecter of faith.” — Hebrews 12:1–2
