Reflection on the Readings at Mass for the Fifth Sunday of Lent – Year A. The Liturgical Sense of the Scriptures Podcast, by Catholic Author and Theologian David L. Gray.

The Liturgy Empowers and Equips us to Bring the Dead to Life 

In this episode, we enter the breathtaking drama of a God who brings the dead to life—not only in the valley of Ezekiel’s dry bones, not only in Lazarus emerging from the tomb, but in every place where our own spirits have grown cold or buried. The readings reveal a God whose very breath restores what sin has killed, whose Spirit frees us from the tyranny of the flesh, and whose Son calls each of us by name out of whatever grave we’ve settled into. Join us as we explore how the liturgy places that same life‑giving power within us, forming us into people who speak life into a world full of dry bones and who dare to roll away the stones that keep others from rising.
