The Liturgical Sense of the Scriptures Podcast, featuring Catholic Author David L. Gray, reflects on Palm Sunday Mass readings. The liturgy illustrates that all things, including our most valuable possessions, belong to God. This truth, echoing through the Gospels, demands our recognition of divine ownership and authority. The illusion of ownership leads to possession, contrasting with the humility taught by the liturgy. Gray urges self-reflection on our attachment to possessions and calls for a return to the acknowledgment that our whole lives should be offered to God, as modeled in the Mass.
