493. Fr. Ryan Homily - You Are Jesus’ Love in the World
Tuesday Dec 10, 2024
Tuesday Dec 10, 2024
St. Paul writes "how I long for all of you with the affection of Christ Jesus" in the Second Reading. How can a man who never met Jesus know the affection and love of Jesus? He found it through other Christians who he met and learned from. We too are called to love with the affection of Jesus, so through us, others can come to know Christ.

489. Fr. Ryan Homily - Return With a Thankful Heart
Tuesday Dec 03, 2024
Tuesday Dec 03, 2024
There is something off in the human heart when we don't give thanks. This is why Jesus asks the leper who returned giving thanks where the others went. There are deeper questions that we have and encounter when we give thanks.

Monday Nov 11, 2024
Monday Nov 11, 2024
Beauty is a sign of the world to come, and because of that, it is sad when it is gone. The beautiful fall leaves disappear, a moment is over, and those we love pass on. But these memories of beauty remind us that we are not made for this world, but for the world to come.

The Lord asks us to "hear" and "listen" to Him as He speaks to us especially through His Word. Do we stop to listen? Or do we fill ourselves with every other kind of news and noise. What if this week we listened for Him each day?

In the Gospel we hear the healing of Bartimaeus, who throws away his cloak of comfort to respond to the Lord's call. Our vocation in life leads us to the joy of the life that God has to offer. How will we respond to that call?

There is a hardness within our hearts from pain, suffering, not being loved well, relationships, and more that the Lord desires to break through to reclaim our hearts. Jesus is not afraid of this, but He pushes through to disarm and heal our hearts.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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
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.
