Homilies

With all the issues Mary had to address, the last thing she needed was a journey to some Judean town in the hill country.

There is nothing like a beautiful story. But the lives which create the stories are often less smooth.

The season of Advent calls us to let go of the stories of our hurt so that our hearts can heal.

Only three things are necessary to connect with God, and all three are always present.

Living in the truth is not easy. It requires courage to face what is real in our lives and to respond to that reality wisely.

When a change comes in our life, faith asks us to believe that it will not destroy us but will open our eyes to a new way of living.

Don’t give up. The game is not over. Keep watching and waiting.

If we want to welcome Jesus on the last day, we better start by welcoming him now.

We are asked to take one small step that could lessen the gap between the life that we live and the life most of the world lives.

The creation story is not so much about what happened at the beginning of time as what is happening now in our relationships.
