Homily for Monday of the Sixth Week in Ordinary Time

Homily for the Sixth Sunday in Ordinary Time

Jesus didn't come to make the commandments less important to fulfil, but more important, and even harder. But he gives us the grace we need to fulfil them, and it's totally worth it!

Homily for the Feast of the Presentation of the Lord

The glory of God returned when the Messiah was presented in the Temple by His parents. Now, we have the privileged opportunity to bask in His glory every time we put ourselves before His Presence in the Tabernacle. But God does not want to remain there. Our eyes have seen His salvation. We are sent forth to bring the light of His revelation to all peoples so that all would know Him and offer Him right worship.

Homily for the Feast of the Baptism of the Lord

At our baptism, we were grafted onto Jesus Christ, and just as he was a priest, prophet and king, so we too participate in those same roles in our own Christian lives. In the interest of full disclosure, much of this homily was lifted from Fr. Robert Barron, a priest whom I respect and admire a great deal (after all, the good borrow, the great steal). Find more of his (much better) homilies here . You can also subscribe to the podcast in iTunes by clicking here ....

Homily for the Solemnity of Mary the Mother of God

The title of Mary as Mother of God proclaims clearly that the One to whom she gave birth truly is God. In fact, He is one Divine person who is both fully God and fully Man. The feast day is a clear example of how devotion to Mary actually helps us to know and love her Son better. True devotion to Mary never takes away from our relationship with Jesus Christ, but protects and even fosters it.

Homily for the Feast of the Holy Family

We see that each member of the Holy Family puts God's will first in His or her life, and that God chose to come into the world through the Holy Family. It is important more than ever that members of Catholic Christian families also put God's will first in their lives today so that God can continue to come into our world through holy families.

Homily for the Third Sunday of Advent (Gaudete Sunday)

Are you sure you know what to expect when the Messiah comes into your life?

Homily for the Solemnity of Christ the King

It is fitting that today's Solemnity marks the close of the Year of Faith. Has this year of grace helped expand the Kingdom of God in our own lives? How have we helped expand the Kingdom of God through our efforts to make disciples of all nations? How many disciples have you made this past year?

Homily for the Thirty-second Sunday in Ordinary Time

We aren't dualists. What we do with our bodies matters because we are a union of body and soul, and God plans on redeeming the human person, body and soul, in the resurrection of the dead. (Sorry folks, this one's a little long).

Homily for the Thirtieth Sunday in Ordinary Time

Are you the pharisee, or the tax collector? Are you convinced that you are ok, and don't need to ask God for forgiveness? Or are you aware that it is God who saves you, and tell Him that by going to Confession?
