  • 09/29/24 Desperate for Freedom
    Sep 28 2024

    Homily from the Twenty-sixth Sunday in Ordinary Time.

    Restriction is the first step towards freedom.

    God is good. God wants all of us to have the fullness of life and of joy. God wants all of us to have HIM. But there are things that suffocate joy. There are things in our lives that rob us of God. There are things that we choose to keep in our lives that strip us of freedom. And Jesus calls us to be ruthless in how we approach those things.

    Sep 21 2024

    Homily from the Twenty-fifth Sunday in Ordinary Time.

    Not all ambition is bad.

    Every good thing that we have in our lives we most likely have because an individual (or group of individuals) wanted to do something great. Jesus warns us of the dangers of wanting to be first. James warns us about selfish ambition. But is every desire to be great or to do great things wrong?
