Sunday Homilies

Jesus was lifted up on the Cross for our salvation, because “God so loved the world!”

I don’t believe that the One who has told us to love even our enemies is calling us to hate. But, he is calling us to put God first...

"For everyone who exalts himself will be humbled, but the one who humbles himself will be exalted."

But if I am humble enough to realize that I need God to have the wisdom and the fortitude to enter through the “narrow gate,” I may be less ready to pass judgment on others.

What could be an indication that we are authentically following Jesus? The answer that comes to me is the Cross.

Is our treasure our relationship with a loving God in Jesus Christ? And do we see our relationship with God inextricably connected to our relationship with others and with all of God’s creation?
