Summary

Homily from the Fourth Sunday in Ordinary Time.

The Holy Moment is the present moment.

When we live lives of distraction we cannot live lives of wonder or joy or holiness. Distraction steals life away because it takes us away from the present moment. And the present moment is the only moment that has the potential to be a holy moment.

Mass Readings from January 28, 2024:
Deuteronomy 18:15-20
