Very interesting talks given by Fr Francis Martin on 'Preaching in Adversity'. With today's day and age, we are facing adversity in the media at work and even at home.
Below are the video talks and my brief summary covering what was discussed. The talks are not long, about 15-18 minutes long. You will gain much by listening to Fr Martin's talks.
I encourage you to make 15 minutes available in your morning or during the day and listen to these talks...think of them as your spiritual study time. You will find new ideas or thoughts being presented to you by Fr Martin...it happens to me every time I listen to him!

Fr Martin continues with his talk on preaching in adversity building on paragraph 20 of GAUDIUM ET SPES:
It is in our works that demonstrate what is within our hearts...are we filled with the desire of serving or is everything done for the pleasure of self?
