Why Jesus changes everything

Deacon Jay W. Vanhoosier explained that Jesus Christ is more than a moral teacher, religious leader, or historical figure. Writing for The Western Kentucky Catholic, Vanhoosier stated that for Christians, Jesus is God who entered the human experience to share life with humanity.

In the third part of a monthly series titled Ten Matters of Faith Every Catholic Should Know: A Journey From Belief to Discipleship, Vanhoosier noted that the central claim of the Catholic faith is that the Son of God became man. He wrote that through Jesus, God experienced human emotions and situations, including friendship, rejection, joy, sorrow, suffering, and death.
