Fr. Turbo Qualls: Walking Dead in Church: The Cure That Feels Like Death | Father Turbo's Homily

St. John Chrysostom warns us that loving money infects our souls like a disease. We cling to wealth as if it were our flesh. Father Turbo explores why the Rich Young Ruler walked away sorrowful. Why does “more” never heal us, and why does losing money feel like dying? False cures only deepen our wounds. Christ offers the seeming impossible remedy. If you've ever felt trapped by possessions or haunted by "more's" emptiness, then this message is for you: the real Walking Dead inside the Church. 0:00 Intro “Everyone’s infected” (Walking Dead) 0:28 The Walking Dead twist 0:55 The rich young ruler’s disease applies to us 1:54 Possessions weigh us down 2:04 Rich / Young / Ruler: mirror checks 3:33 The rich young ruler is all of us 4:22 Commandments vs. letting go 5:01 Heirs of the Kingdom 5:38 Idols & anxiety: when wealth squeezes you 6:55 “The Walking Dead” vs true life 7:00 Christ’s resurrection as life for the dead 7:29 Camel & the needle: 7:59 Counterfeit peace vs. Christ 8:27 He walked away sad.
