Guys, we are 15 days away from Easter. Fifteen days is not a long time, and it takes 15 days to walk from New York to Florida and 15 days to watch all of the episodes and seasons of “The Bachelor.” Side note, if you watch “The Bachelor,” stop and go to confession.
In the Gospel today, we have a foreshadowing of the Resurrection of Jesus Christ, and we have Lazarus rising from the dead. When we hear this Gospel, we know the Resurrection of Jesus Christ is close. So, let’s take a quick thermometer check in our hearts.
And ask the question, “Am I living as if the Resurrection is real in my life?” To be a saint is to witness to the Resurrection, which is true, which is the whole foundation for our faith. And so, my invitation is to live as if the Resurrection is real and true. Because it is. Jesus Christ transformed death into life, and he can transform you into a saint.

Truly, Interiorly, Fulfilled
So, when I was a senior in college, I got offered a job with the FBI. And I remember when that moment happened, I felt interiorly so empty, which is crazy because here’s what the world is saying. This will make you happy. This will make you fulfilled. It felt empty at the time because I knew the Lord was calling me to something else. He was calling me to something that would…

Love Jesus First and Foremost
So a hundred years from now, what will you be known for if ChatGBT has not taken over the world? Will they remember something that you did? Or will they remember a personality trait? What will you be known for? In the Gospel today, Jesus clearly states that He wants us to love Him first and then love everyone and everything after Him. When we put Jesus…

Happy Candlemas
So, this Sunday is so awesome. We are celebrating the Feast of the Presentation of the Lord, also known as Candlemas. All of these candles will be brought into the church and blessed because we are celebrating the light of Christ coming into the temple for the first time. The people of Israel have been waiting for this moment forever. This would be like all of our churches having an empty tabernacle for hundreds of years…
