We just had the World Series, and it was awesome. Please don’t tell the government, please don’t judge me, but I actually was rooting for the team of England.
I was rooting for England, because my favorite soccer player of all time is Harry Kane. And in British English, it’s Harry Kane. I love Harry Kane. He is the striker of all strikers. As I’ve grown in this one-sided bromance with Harry Kane, I have begun to love what he loves, which is the English team. And so today is the solemnity of Mary, Mother of God. When we get close to Mary, we get close to God himself. The closer that we get in love to Jesus, the closer that we get in love to Mary and vice versa. So my invitation for all of us today is just like I grew in love for the English team because I loved what Harry Kane loves, you can grow to love Mary by loving Jesus more, and you can grow to love Jesus by loving Mary more.

And so a great question is have we ever invited Jesus into our home? Guess what? As Catholics, we have something even better. Whenever we receive the Eucharist, we invite…

You Belong With Him
The Gospel for this Sunday is so awesome. The disciples are asking, Jesus, “Are you the one who is to come, or should we look for another?” And I think we can live that way so often that we are not looking for Jesus, but we are looking for something else or someone else. And I think the solution to this problem is Taylor Swift…

Soften The Hardened Heart
Let’s talk about Thanos. Thanos is not a good guy. He basically destroys half of the universe. He has so many opportunities to change his heart, but his heart is so hardened that he is not able to. And that’s the downfall of Thanos, that his heart is so hardened that he can’t have a conversion. In the gospel for this Sunday…
