In this SEEK talk, Sr. Josephine draws from Scripture, the Catechism, St. John Paul II, neuroscience, and her experience as a mental health counselor to show that every person is created, chosen, and sustained by the love of God. We are not abandoned. We are not made for loneliness. We are made for communion, charity, and the love we cannot earn — and therefore cannot lose.
