Homily from the Solemnity of Christ the King.

The Mass is the fuel for our life in the world...and our life in the world is an extension of the Mass.

The words, "The Lord be with you" are meant to prepare us for great things...dangerous things. When we hear them at the end of Mass, they prepare us to bring what we've done at the altar out to the world.

John 18:33b-37

Homily from the Thirty-third Sunday in Ordinary Time.

At Mass, you are not in the bleachers. You are on the field. You are in the game.

We are kingdom priests. But do we know what we are saying? Do we know what we are praying?

Mark 13:24-32

Homily from the Thirty-second Sunday in Ordinary Time.

It is truly right and just...worship sets us free.

Does God need our worship? He does not. But we do. Worship sets us free from slavery and opens us up to love.

Mark 12:38-44

Homily from the Thirty-first Sunday in Ordinary Time.

Worship is not about what we get, but about what we can give.

When it comes to Mass, we often complain that we "don't get anything out of it". Is that what Mass is about? Is that what love is about? Or is love (and worship) about what we can give?

Mark 12:28-34

Homily from the Thirtieth Sunday in Ordinary Time.

The heart of worship is sacrifice.

We know that the sacrifice of Jesus once-for-all is the moment that saves us. It is possible to be present to this moment and offer that one sacrifice now.

Mark 10:46-52

Homily from the Twenty-ninth Sunday in Ordinary Time.

A thing is worth what someone is willing to sacrifice for it.

How do we know what a thing is worth? When it comes to God, do we know how to worship Him?

Mark 10:35-45

Homily from the Twenty-eighth Sunday in Ordinary Time.

God's Word is living and active.

In order to understand our lives clearly, we need to know The Story. In order to know The Story, we need to become familiar with the Bible.

Mark 10:17-30

Homily from the Twenty-seventh Sunday in Ordinary Time.

God has called us here. God is with us here. God will not leave us here.

Marriage will always be a challenge. But there is a way to move forward in this challenge that brings greater peace and joy. There are no guarantees other than "I will not leave" and "God will not leave".

Mark 10:2-16
