“Born for Greater Things”: Celebrating the Feast of St. Josemaria Escriva

In our meditation of the week: On the 50th anniversary of St. Josemaria Escriva’s entrance into heaven (June 26, 1975), we reflect on the enduring legacy of his life and message. Msgr. Dolan explores the central theme of divine filiation - the foundation of Opus Dei’s spirit, and how it empowers ordinary Christians to become contemplatives in the middle of the world.

Listen now to reflect on:

• The moment in 1931 when St. Josemaria grasped his identity as a beloved child of God
• How divine filiation filled his heart with joy and shaped the spirituality of Opus Dei
• The meaning behind “Omnia in bonum” and “Ad maiora natus sum”
• Why a personalized “plan of life” helps us turn each day into a symphony of prayer
• St. Josemaria’s impact on those around him - from young students to scientists and engineers
