May 10, 2026

A program by Basilia Schlink of the Little Land of Canaan

The sermon emphasizes the greater power of love for Jesus, which is stronger than all tribulation, affliction, and death, and offers a promise of divine life and bliss for those who follow Him. In this sermon, the speaker discusses the power of love for Jesus in overcoming affliction, temptation, suffering, and even death. The story of Father Maximilian Kolber, a priest martyred in Auschwitz, is shared as an example of someone who chose to die out of fervent love for Jesus. Despite being in a starvation cell, Father Kolber's love for Jesus was so strong that he did not scream or lose his mind like others. The speaker emphasizes that divine life, which is fueled by the love of God, is greater than any tribulation or affliction we may face. The sermon encourages listeners to cultivate a deep love for Jesus and to accompany him on his path.
