In this meditation for the Solemnity of Christ the King, Fr. Leo Austin invites us to contemplate the final gospel of the liturgical year, a gospel in which Christ’s kingship is revealed through the cross in suffering, silence, and mercy. We are invited to recognize that the kingdom Christ brings is present in the heart of every Christian who asks for grace and opens themselves to his reign.

Listen now to reflect on:

Why the Cross is the true throne of Christ the King.
How the “good thief” reveals a path to conversion.
What it means for Christ to reign first in our soul.
The difference between suffering like Christ and suffering with Christ.
The interior kingdom Christ offers: joy, mercy, and friendship with God.
