Homily from the 4th Sunday of Easter. We speak often of the Paschal Mystery and of Jesus being the Passover Lamb. What does that mean? Where are the connections between the Old Testament, the New Testament, and what we do at Mass? How does that challenge us to live here and now?

Homily from the 3rd Sunday of Easter. First Communion is an extraordinary moment, but so is every Communion. Jesus gives us this extraordinary gift, if only we won't allow it to become ordinary.

Homily from the Second Sunday of Easter. Jesus gives his Apostles the power to forgive or retain sins, which means he expects people to confess their sins to them. Confession still exists and we need to use the gift.

Homily from the 5th Sunday in Lent. The Lord reminds his people how he's worked in their lives in the past, and now he urges them to see his new work. It's a reminder for us not to live in the past, but instead to press on toward God's upward calling in Christ Jesus.
