469. Fr. Ryan Homily - Be Open
Monday Sep 09, 2024
Monday Sep 09, 2024
In the Gospel, Jesus tells the man "be open," but the place that most needs to be open is not his eyes and mouth, but is the place that is caught up in isolation. He wants you to be open too. He wants to take you away from the crowds so you can be seen, loved, and open to Him.

468. Fr. Ryan Homily - He Loves Where It Hurts
Tuesday Sep 03, 2024
Tuesday Sep 03, 2024
What purifies us is that God approaches us in Jesus. The purification we need comes through the encounter with Christ, coming so close that he can heal, purify, and transform us. Jesus always wants to go to the very place that is imperfect, our heart, and bring His healing love.

466. Fr. Ryan Homily - Power That Loves
Monday Aug 26, 2024
Monday Aug 26, 2024
When a man gets down on one knee to ask for a woman's hand in marriage, he takes a humble posture, waiting patiently for her response. The Lord does the same for us in each Mass, offering Himself, Body, Blood, Soul and Divinity to us in the Eucharist, and like the woman being proposed to, we respond to that love, that comes humbly and patiently, with a resounding "Yes" and "Amen!"

463. Fr. Ryan Homily - The Foremost Holy Day of Obligation
Monday Aug 19, 2024
Monday Aug 19, 2024
Many of us attend Mass on the weekends "because we have to" and do not fully understand what the Church is asking of us in the Sunday Obligation. The Catechism says "Sunday is to be observed as the foremost Holy Day of Obligation" (CCC 2192). As we better understand the Sunday Obligation, we can come to Mass with open hearts ready to receive our Lord, and be nourished for the week ahead.

461. Fr. Ryan Homily - Familiarity Breeds Contempt
Monday Aug 12, 2024
Monday Aug 12, 2024
The familiar can often become so normal to us that we don't realize its awesomeness. When we come to Mass, we wear beautiful vestments, have beautiful music, and are in a beautiful space because it points to something more. God wants to draw near to us, so that we might know Him as our Father, a good dad.

Baptism frees us from the slavery to sin and puts us on the journey to heaven. Jesus gives us Himself as food for the journey. The Eucharist helps us to live the Gospel, the Catholic life and is a pledge of future glory. With it, we can live in this world, destined for the world to come.

Monday Jul 29, 2024
Monday Jul 29, 2024
As we read through John 6 over the next few weeks, we will be reflecting on the Bread of Life Discourse. We begin with the feeding of the 5000 where we see Phillip and Andrew show us how we are "structurally disproportionate." That instead, we should imitate the child, who shows us that faith is not a burden, its the joy of becoming beloved children again.

Often we have an inadequate understanding of God, not bad, just not the full realization of who He is and His plan for us. St. Paul's letter to the Ephesians is a great place for us to begin to learn, so that when we are talking with friends and family who are searching we are able to say "I Know What You're Looking For."

We have and fall into rituals and routines in our daily lives, and we don't like to stray from them. The Lord meets us in them and asks us to break out of our box and encounter Him. When we are able to break out of our set ways, we have a different story than Jesus' hometown crowd, and mighty deeds can be done in our lives.

450. Fr. Ryan Homily - The Devil Lurks in Our Busyness
Monday Jul 01, 2024
Monday Jul 01, 2024
As Catholics, we believe in things seen and unseen. As much as Mary, the Saints, angels, the Lord are constantly at work in our lives, so are the evil spirits and the devil. Satan wants you totally divorced from God. In our busyness, he keeps us from the Lord, so we call on St. Michael and other holy men and women to help us fight against the attacks of the devil.

Tuesday Jun 18, 2024
Tuesday Jun 18, 2024
The Lord sits in heaven on the judgement seat, but from there He extends an overflow of mercy to us. It is not judgement or mercy, but both, together. We never graduate from the prayer "Lord Have Mercy," but pray it sincerely each day, that the Lord in His kindness, knowing our faults and failings, lavishes His mercy upon us.
