This sermon is about how to get your kids to heaven in 15 minutes a day. The featured image is Holy Ghost parish in downtown Denver. Some families of this parish used the Baltimore Catechism in the 1980s, and it paid off.
It would be helpful (but not necessary) to have the layman's 1962 Missal on hand to learn the power of this old Missal. The featured image above is St. Francis Xavier whose propers of the Mass we will consider in this "podclass."
Today is the Sixth Sunday which remains after Epiphany. "Superfuit" is Latin for "remain" or "survive," because these readings remain from the Sundays of the calendar year prior to Septuagesima Sunday earlier this year. This is so we can get through all the readings before the last Sunday of the ecclesial year (next week.) Most of today's sermon is actually taken from St. John Chrysostom's words on St. Matthew chapter 13, the Gospel for today. The other person in the feature-image is St. Gregory the Wonderworker. Both are early Turkish saints, mentioned in this sermon.
This is class 1 on teaching the 1962 layman's missal, but people who go to the Ordinary Mass or Divine Liturgy will learn a lot, too, because linked here is the meditation for each part of the Holy Mass according to St. Francis De Sales, and that comprises part of this "podclass."
Everyone can fast from something to increase their desire for God.
This Sunday sermon is about why Jesus was not a people-pleaser, and why you shouldn't be one either.
This is sermon is about the separation of Church and State and what to expect at the Triumph of the Immaculate Heart of Mary. As always, thanks to the Benedictines of Mary who have graciously allowed me to use their music as my podcast bumpers.
This Holy Mass was offered for the soul of Christopherson Cortes. Ora pro nobis if you're already at the finish line.
The Little Way as Spiritual Warfare: Lining up the Liturgy of several seemingly-unconnected saints this past week: St. Michael the Archangel, St. Therese, St. Francis, Mother Mary and the Gospel of the 18th Sunday After Pentecost.
In the TLM calendar, today is the external feast of Our Lady of the Rosary. Although this sermon deals with abortion, I tried to avoid extremely graphic descriptions of the violence. In fact, the families with whom I inquired after Mass had no problem with my vocabulary in preaching. Nevertheless, I would highly encourage parents to preview this sermon in order to first determine the level of age-appropriate listening in your family. Nota Bene: Future sermons will probably be released on Mondays, blog posts on Thursdays.
