    6/22/25 Pillar and Foundation: Greatest Gift
    Jun 21 2025

    Homily from the Solemnity of Corpus Christi.

    Jesus did not say "Read this in memory of Me." He said "Do this in memory of Me."

    The greatest gift Jesus gave us is Himself in the Eucharist. And yet, even people who love Jesus very much can miss this gift without the guidance and teaching of the Church.

    Homily from the Solemnity of the Most Holy Trinity.

    Even when the Bible seems clear, earnest Christians can get it wrong. We need a Church to tell us when we are wrong.

    The most important revelation of God is His own identity. From the beginning, Christians have needed more than the words of Sacred Scripture to guide them into all truth. We have needed the Holy Spirit leading the Church through error to know the depths of God's identity.

    06/08/25 Pillar and Foundation: Infallible Teacher
    Jun 7 2025

    Homily from Pentecost Sunday.

    Without an infallible Teacher, an infallible Book is a worthless book.

    The Church is messy. But it is also holy. And has been given the ability and the authority of Jesus to teach. Even in the midst of the brokenness of the human element of the Church, the Church is still the Infallible Teacher of Divine Revelation.

    Mass Readings from June 7, 2025: Acts 2:1-11 Psalm 104:1, 24, 29-30, 31, 341 Corinthians 12:3b-7, 12-13

Thank you Fr Mike for the effort you make to give a high quality homily with good production quality too. Your pearl was a launching point for me this weekend when I was stuck, not sure what to preach on.

I hope Father Mike hears or reads these reviews. I started with Bible in a Year on 1/01/23 and now have three of his podcasts in my library. He has changed everything about my relationship with God and my view of the Bible. I have been up and down with God for my whole life, mostly down. I have found new hope, and yes, even LOVE for God the Father now. I have been humbled and am working my way into a fulfilling and loving relationship with the Almighty, thanks to the care of Father Mike. I am grateful.

Father Mike FTW (for the win)
