In this Commentary Clip, Tony explores the changing liturgical seasons in the life of the Church by comparing it to a marriage. As he explains, just as any lasting marriage experiences intense periods and at others more placid times, so it goes in our relationship with God. Nevertheless, regardless of the current season, the commitment must remain the same if the relationship is to deepen and grow.
