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

In our meditation of the week: On the Solemnity of the Most Holy Trinity, Fr. Javier del Castillo leads us in a profound meditation on the central mystery of our faith: the Blessed Trinity. Through Scripture, Church teachings, and insights from St. Josemaria Escriva, we are invited to deepen our relationship with the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.

Listen now to reflect on:

• Why the Trinity created us out of a desire to share eternal love
• How each Person of the Trinity is distinct yet inseparable
• What the Church Fathers and early Councils taught against heresies like Arianism
• How Jesus Christ is our gateway into communion with the Trinity
• St. Josemaria’s devotion to the Trinity—and his image of “1-0-3” as a sign of humility
• Why intellectual humility is essential for contemplating this mystery
• How baptism initiates our filial relationship with each Person of the Trinity

In our meditation of the week: Fr. Peter Armenio invites us to contemplate the Blessed Virgin Mary as the Queen of Apostles—our model of total self-giving and the one who brings us to Jesus through her “yes.” He highlights Mary’s quiet but powerful presence from Genesis to Revelation and the vital role she plays in our vocation to holiness and evangelization.

Listen now to reflect on:

• Why Mary’s “yes” is the model for every Christian apostolate
• The connection between Mary and the Eucharist as “Woman of the Eucharist”
• Mary’s presence and role in the spiritual battle for souls
• How her example teaches us to give ourselves totally to God
• St. Josemaria’s confidence in Our Lady in times of suffering and discouragement
