Let us have a disposition of joy as we go to see the King.

Fr. Edward preaches about how Christians will be hated for what they believe and for living the teachings of Jesus.

Today we remember the dedication of St. John Lateran. In this reflection, Fr. Edward Looney reflects on his own visit to the Cathedral Church of Rome, and how it led him to appreciate his faith a bit more. He then invites us to consider how our own church is beautiful.

When we hear someone has died, faith calls us to remember, thank, and pray.

In this homily, Fr. Edward Looney reflects on the passing of his priest classmate, Fr. Guillermo Treviño, and the Christian way of responding to death—with gratitude and prayerful hope. 🙏

Fr. Edward Looney reflects on the readings for the 30th Sunday in Ordinary Time and how they call us to look at our beliefs about prayer and how we pray.

Many of us first heard Bible stories as children—David and Goliath, Noah’s Ark, the Good Samaritan. But St. Paul reminds us that the Scriptures we knew from infancy are meant to keep forming us throughout life.

In this homily, Fr. Edward Looney reflects on how to approach God’s Word with adult faith and deeper understanding. Using St. Paul’s words—“All Scripture is inspired by God and useful for teaching, refutation, correction, and training in righteousness”—Fr. Looney invites us to rediscover the power of Scripture through three simple questions:

1️⃣ What does the text say?

2️⃣ How does it speak to me personally?

3️⃣ How is it calling me to live differently?

Whether you’ve drifted from Bible reading or want to go deeper, this homily will help you encounter Scripture not just as a story from your childhood, but as a living Word meant to transform your adult life.

In this reflection, Fr. Edward Looney reflects about the decisive moments in our life where we make changes and choose the good. This choice is played out especially in our choice for the Lord at Mass, and our willingness to bear witness.

The prayer of St. Francis says, where there is doubt, bring faith. Today, the apostles ask for an increase of faith. Why? Were they doubting? How are we to respond to doubt? My homily for the 27th Sunday in Ordinary Time (10/5/2025).

In this homily Fr. Edward Looney invites us to see where complacency has settled into our lives and encourages us to break free from that attitude.

Fr. Edward Looney reflects on not forgetting our Catholic history just as the Lord does not forget our sins and the good we have done.
