Homilies

Lifeissues is mainly concerned with publishing thoughtful articles directly related to issues raised in Evangelium Vitae. However, from the very beginning, we have also published a few related homilies, notably by Fr. Al Cariño, O.M.I., Fr. Tony Pueyo, and others.

Please use the pulldowns below to select a homily by Liturgical Calendar date.

New! The Poor Man at the Gate
26th Sunday in Ordinary Time (C)

Antonio P. Pueyo
With so much suffering, poverty, and misery around us there are times when we become numb to suffering. Even donor fatigue can set in among those who try to help.

New! Who do people say we are?

Tom Bartolomeo
Jesus repeatedly decried the proud and the wealthy. Actually, the terms intersect in the "pride of life" the Apostle John wrote about in his first Letter, how much we are prone to take pride in our possessions, all the things of this world which can consume us. We are in fact, the premier consumers in the world. We Americans are five percent of the world's population and we consume nearly fifty percent of the world's goods and services.

New! A Blind Eye and a Dry Tongue. (ordinary 26, 2022)

Proclaim Sermons
We accept faith, or grow our faith, not by dramatic events or fear of punishment, but by responding in our everyday lives through study, devotion and care for others, to the revelation that God has given us.
