Your Past Doesn't Define You

What defines you? Your failures? Your past? Or something far greater? In this powerful reflection, Fr. Malachy CFR shares a moving story from prison ministry in Nicaragua—a woman buried under shame, convinced she was beyond love—until God’s mercy broke through. Discover what happens when we allow ourselves to be seen through the Father’s eyes, not our own distorted reflection. ➡️ Episode Chapters: 0:00 Introduction 0:24 Recalling My Time In Nicaragua 1:22 Her Posture Changed in This Moment 3:23 Story of The Prodigal Son 5:00 Leave Me Alone 6:50 Receiving the Mercy of God Through Confession 7:45 Eyes of Mercy 8:43 Subscribe! ➡️ THIS SERIES Following His Footsteps | Episode #22 Following His Footsteps is a weekly video series presented by Fr Malachy Napier, CFR.
