How often do we try to build our own little Tower of Babel — an exercise in futility?
Fr. Luke talks Shayne Smith, Sheetz runs, and claims he's taking more of the matins canon than we actually took last night; does that resemble how much we actually take up our cross?
In Christ, we recognize Death as the enemy, and yet there's something relatively insignificant to physical death...
God knows our thoughts tend to evil, and yet He shows us mercy!
Jesus Christ left us seven sacraments, but it seems like maybe we've forgotten how to use two of them. Hopefully this will help!
What does it mean that "the sons of God" married "the daughters of earth?" What does it mean for me? Is the Old Testament okay with polygamy? Am I doing something similar?
Please forgive the poor audio quality; I didn't have my usual equipment.
Wherein Fr. Luke comments on Bruce Springsteen, our pious and God-fearing ancestors in the Faith, the Second Vatican Council, and the fact that God's plan includes us, here and now.
I read a great article about Scandinavian outdoor culture and failed to apply it. But hey, I got this homily on Romans out of my goof-up.

The homilies and reflections of a young Byzantine Catholic priest trying to figure it all out!
The (actual) Lukan Jump is a more or less yearly occurrence in the lectionary of the Byzantine rite. "The Lukan Jump" is the podcast location of homilies by a Byzantine Catholic priest who starts bouncing around when he gets excited about something.
Fr. Luke is a priest of the Byzantine Catholic Archeparchy (Archdiocese) of Pittsburgh, and serves as administrator of St. Mary's Byzantine Catholic Church in Weirton, WV and St. John the Baptist Byzantine Catholic Church in Avella, PA. He can often be found at such fine institutions as Tudor's Biscuit World, Osaka Japan, and Chico Fiesta, all in Weirton.
