10/25/15 Ordinary Time: Do It Now

Homily from the Thirtieth Sunday in Ordinary Time.

The one difference between potential and sanctity.

You have everything you need to be the saint God created you to be. You have all of the potential you need. There is one difference between the saints and the rest of us: when it comes to doing it now or doing it later...the saints do it now.

10/04/15 One and Only: The Only One

Homily from the Twenty-seventh Sunday in Ordinary Time.

You feel alone. You aren’t the only one.

We have a loneliness problem. Each of us can feel like we are the only one who feels alone, unknown, and unloved. God has a plan for our lives, but it is not the elimination of loneliness. It is something more. God’s plan for our lives, our being made in His image (God is love) is more than “loneliness avoidance”. God’s plan for our lives is that we learn to love, to participate in the school of love, and be an image of His love to the world.
