John 3:16: Why "The Truth" is Relational • Wednesday, 15 April 2026 • Catholic Daily Reflection

Remote video URL

Join Fr. Greg Heille, OP for today’s reflection for Wednesday of the 2nd Week of Easter (April 15th). We explore one of the most famous verses in the Bible—John 3:16—and dive deeper into what it means to live in the "Truth."

Father Greg explains that for Christians, Truth is not just a concept; it is inherently relational. Discover why we cannot properly hear the Holy Spirit or serve the world without the support of a faith community. This video is a call to a lifelong journey of conversion, transformation, and active participation in God’s mission within our neighborhoods, families, and the world.

**In this video, you will reflect on:**
*   The profound depth of John 3:16: God’s love for the world.
*   The choice between walking in the Light or preferring the Darkness.
*   The "coded language" of the Gospel of John regarding the word "Truth."
*   Why community is essential for discerning the voice of the Holy Spirit.
*   How to participate fully in God’s mission in your daily life.
