05/31/26 Understanding...or Trust?
Homily from the Solemnity of the Most Holy Trinity. God is not a problem to solve, but One to be trusted. The Holy Trinity is the term that we use to try and convey the Mystery of Who God ultimately is. But no definition will suffice. And no explanation could possibly capture God's fullness. God is simply beyond anything that we can conceive of or imagine...but He has revealed Himself and called us into relationship with Him. Even if we do not fully grasp Him. Mass Readings from May 31, 2026: Exodus 34:4b-6, 8-9 Daniel 3:52, 53, 54, 55, 562 Corinthians 13:11-13 John 3:16-18

05/24/26 Near Occasion of Grace
Homily from Pentecost Sunday. God always answers our prayers, but our prayers do not control or convince Him. We can say that "prayer works", but we must be very careful to know what we mean if we were to utter such words. Mass Readings from May 24, 2026: Acts 2:1-11 Psalm 104:1, 24, 29-30, 31, 341 Corinthians 12:3b-7, 12-13 John 20:19-23

05/17/26 A Necessary Goodbye
Homily from the Ascension of the Lord. "It is better for you that I go...". Is that true? Jesus told His apostles that it was better for them that He ascended to the Father; that it was better for them if He left them. But why? Mass Readings from May 17, 2026: Acts 1:1-11 Psalm 47:2-3, 6-9Ephesians 1:17-23 Matthew 28:16-20

05/10/26 A Reason to Hope
Homily from the Sixth Sunday of Easter. Hope that is not tested is hope that cannot be trusted. How do we grow in hope? Saint Paul tells us: through affliction that leads to a new level of trust in the God who loves us. Mass Readings from May 10, 2026: Acts 8:5-8, 14-17 Psalm 66:1-3, 4-7, 16, 201 Peter 3:15-18 John 14:15-21

05/03/26 The Next...: The Next Goodbye
Homily from the Fifth Sunday of Easter. What is this in light of eternity? Our perspective either helps us see things clearly or muddies the waters. The only way forward is perspective, and not just any perspective, eternal perspective. Without eternal perspective, our hearts will never find rest and we will always be searching for our true purpose. Mass Readings from May 3, 2026: Acts 6:1-7 Psalm 33:1-2, 4-5, 18-191 Peter 2:4-9 John 14:1-12

04/26/26 The Next...: The Next Road
Homily from the Fourth Sunday of Easter. There is no perfect road. There is only the next right road. There are many things that we might end up regretting in the course of our lives. But the most important thing is to keep our eyes on Jesus and our ears attuned to the sound of His voice; to listen to Him, stay close to Him, and follow Him. Mass Readings from April 26, 2026: Acts 2:14, 36-41 Psalm 23: 1-3, 3-61 Peter 2:20-25 John 10:1-10

04/19/26 The Next...: The Next Mass
Homily from the Third Sunday of Easter. The Enemy wants to steal your heart. The Lord wants to give you His. It is possible to know the truth; the truth about the Resurrection, the truth about Christianity, the truth about Jesus...and still struggle. It is possible to know and wrestle to have the courage it requires to continue on. Courage is necessary. Heart is necessary...especially in the battle of discouragement. Mass Readings from April 19, 2026: Acts 2:14, 22-33 Psalm 16:1-2, 5, 7-111 Peter 1:17-21 Luke 24:13-35

04/12/26 The Next...: The Next Confession
Homily from Divine Mercy Sunday. It’s not about your first or last confession. It’s about your next one. The Christian life doesn’t end with a first confession, baptism, or Easter moment, it continues through the next step. What keeps love alive is not looking back, but continually returning to Christ through confession, mercy, and grace. Each “next” encounter with Jesus strengthens faith and guards against a cold heart. Mass Readings from April 12, 2026: Acts 2:42-47 Psalm 118:2-4, 13-15, 22-241 Peter 1:3-9 John 20:19-31
