From the 7:30am Mass on Sunday, August 31, 2025, the Twenty-Second Sunday in Ordinary Time, Year C, at St. Peter Catholic Church in Mount Clemens.

In this homily, I address some of the spiritual context around the school shooting on August 27 at Annunciation Catholic School in Minneapolis, Minnesota. My three points:

1. Attributes of the Demonic
2. Violence
3. The Blood of Christ

Resource: I draw heavily from the book On The Demonic, a Sheen compilation.
