The transcript feature on Apple Podcasts is VERY humbling when I’m reading a homily I delivered off notes.

I am so floored at how much attention this is getting.

The beauty of the Church’s teaching on human sexuality is so misunderstood. The starting point for it is so far down to the base of Christian anthropology and metaphysics that establishing common ground with someone who disagrees to dialogue is nearly impossible. So sad.

Bay lookin beautiful!

Prayers for this too. Gruss is my bishop.

Prayers for this very sad situation. This is/was my own parent’s pastor.

Great reflection by +Vigneron.

The injustices that will be inflicted on non-public schools for FY 2025 in Michigan are obscene. Funding for school safety and mental health, helping close the hunger gap, STEM programs, and student teacher salaries all eliminated to fund a broken MI gov't school system.

Remember when the story of the hundreds of children kidnapped by Muslim terrorists in Nigeria went viral a few weeks ago?

They just kidnapped more—and they’re demanding ransoms for their lives.

Where are the mass protests, or do these lives not matter?

There are some people who are doubting this is true. I was given the video by someone I know who lives in Harrison. I double checked and this area is the exact area where they have the food giveaway. The giveaway takes place at the transportation center the first of every month.
