In this episode of the Catholic Link podcast. Fr. Rob and Fr. George discuss some of their thoughts about homilies at Mass and how we are to respond to them. They first offer advice to priests and deacons. When writing a homily, a priest or deacon should keep in mind what they want to say. What is the big take away the congregation should have? The next advice for preachers is to be oneself. Authenticity helps the life of Christ shine through the preacher.

They then offer advice for the congregation. There’s a temptation to call anything good or bad. There lacks the nuance in those situations. Fr. Rob and Fr. George suggest that if we struggle to understand what the priest says in the homily, we should go to the priest and ask him to clarify. We must approach all these situations with charity and assume the most positive intent.

Previous Episode

Listen to the previous episode where. Fr. Rob, Fr. George, discussed short visits to the Eucharist in our routine. Some people may struggle to do a Holy Hour. This sometimes feels daunting and unattainable. However, Fr. Rob and Fr. George encourage us to make short and simple visits to the Blessed Sacrament on a regular basis. These visits can be five minutes or less and include simple memorized prayers and a spiritual communion. Incorporating this into our routines will increase our Eucharistic devotion and love for our Lord.

We could pass a Church on our way to our work regularly. What if we went inside and said an Our Father and continued on our way? This simple gesture done regularly will have immense positive impacts on our spiritual life and draw us closer to Christ in the Eucharist. Then, if we have the time, we can go to Eucharistic Adoration.
