Girolamo Savonarola (1452-98) "Agite poenitentiam”—Do penance!

As Lent begins, it’s time for brutal honesty. Inspired by the searing words of Girolamo Savonarola (1452-98) and Jesus’ urgent call—"Repent, for the kingdom of heaven has come near" (Matthew 4:17)—this message exposes the emptiness of wealth, the hypocrisy of religious pretense, and the danger of delaying repentance. This is not a comforting sermon—it’s a wake-up call. Are you willing to face hard truths about misplaced priorities and the urgency of turning back to Christ?

Berthold of Regensburg - Tricks of Trade 1220-1272

In his 13th-century sermon, Berthold of Regensburg condemns dishonesty, exploitation, and the moral decay he saw in everyday trades. His words, surprisingly relevant today, invite us to reflect on our own integrity, our frustration with corruption, and our roles as Christians in a troubled world. As we confront modern injustices, Berthold’s passionate message offers a powerful lens through which to examine our responsibilities. I encourage you to dive into the study questions and consider how his righteous anger might inspire us to act with courage and conviction in these challenging times.
