Third Sunday After Easter: The Indwelling
Why did Jesus *not* go to other nations after His Resurrection? The answer has to do with how Christians are called to live the three stages of the interior life: The purgative way, the illuminitive way and the unitive way. It also has a lot do with God's initiative in Ascension and Pentecost and then our response that leads to interior divinization and exterior evangelization. The launching point for this sermon is actually a comparison of the above teachings in Catholicism pace Mormonism.

Second Sunday After Easter
aka Good Shepherd Sunday This sermon recognizes the wolves that have caused the current crisis in the Catholic Church. In this sermon, I also describe the shepherds that God may be currently raising in order to shepherd the Church, as Christ and the early Apostles led and guarded the Church. This Sunday is appropriately called “Good Shepherd Sunday,” due to the Gospel from St. John chapter 10. Today is the eclipsed feast day of St. Catherine of Siena in the old calendar. In line with today's sermon, it is worth noting the seven things that God the Father told St. Catherine of Siena would restore the Catholic Church in times of [...]

Divine Mercy Sunday Sermon
In our traditional Latin calendar, this is also called Dominica in Albis or "White-Sunday." It is also called "Low Sunday." My podcasts are back after some technical difficulties (which I honestly believe were preternatural, as there was no natural explanation why the last recordings did not work.) In any case, please pray for the protection of my ministries in the parish, at the abortion mill, in the streets and even online. Happy Divine Mercy Sunday!

In Cena Domini
Tonight's podcast is from the Traditional Latin Mass for the Supper of the Lord (Cena Domini.) This sermon is about the connection between the Holy Eucharist and the Holy Priesthood, and why Jesus transfers His suffering and leadership to His priests. We will see that both the leadership and the suffering of priests are for the life of the world.

Laetare Sunday
This sermon is from my 8am Laetare low Mass. However, between the low Mass and the 10am Sung Mass, I was attacked by ants while talking to a parishioner outside our mission chapel! Separated by a few seconds of music on this podcast, I decided to also post that short 10am sermon. Thus, the last five minutes of this podcast is an improv sermon about the ants, but it ties especially into today’s readings and the most Holy Eucharist.

Annunciation Sermon
This homily is about how science and religion meet in the Feast of the Annunciation. I reference “Instruction on Respect for Human Life in Its Origin and on the Dignity of Procreation," in this homily. It was written by Cardinal Ratzinger in 1987 and it is found on the Vatican Website here.
