C&SI - Sunday of the Word of God - 25 Jan 2026 (S06E10b) (podcast excerpt)

On this weeks podcast excerpt we are joined by Fr Frank Duhig to reflect on Sunday of the Word of God 2026 which falls on the 3rd Sunday in Ordinary time. In his Apostolic Letter of 30 September 2019, Aperuit illis Pope Francis established that the Third Sunday in Ordinary Time is to be the Sunday of the Word of God. It is a day to be devoted to the celebration, study, and spreading of the Word of God. 

Fr Frank reflects on Sunday of the Word of God which is celebrated this weekend. Using the Parable of the Sower from the gospel of Luke Fr Frank reminds us that God is a God who wishes to communicate and the ultimate expression of that was Jesus as the Incarnate Word. Reflecting on the parable we need to ask ourselves where do we individually fit into the parable? Ask ourselves the question are we listening to the Word of God? How do we turn down the volume of the noise of the world to allow us to hear the Word of God? Where and how do we present "good soil" to allow us to receive the seed from God?
