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.

Love Like Jesus
So, our Newman Center just returned from our mission trip to Belize, which was unbelievable. But one of our students, who is just so awesome sauce, experienced something incredible when encountering the poor. She encountered Jesus. Not only did she encounter Jesus, but for the first time in her life, she loved how Jesus loved. In the gospel for this Sunday, we see Jesus’s heart burning on display, that his love is…

Resurrection of the Body
So, Captain America is obviously the best out of all the superheroes. When he receives the soldier serum, he becomes more of himself. He doesn’t become less of himself. He becomes perfected. Before the serum, he was weak, but he was good. After the serum, he is still good and perfected. This is precisely what Jesus says in the gospel today: that we believe in the…

Prioritize Your Soul
Have you guys ever heard of the term skinny fat? Yeah, it’s a thing. It’s a person who looks pretty normal on the outside, but on the inside, fat is growing over all of their organs. Even though you may look fine on the outside, it’s a silent killer. This weekend, we’re celebrating All Souls’ Day, where if we don’t take care of our souls, that’s like…
