Father Zach Weber Homilies

1st Sunday of Lent - You died for me and I couldn't care less

In my homily for the first Sunday of Lent I look at the importance of never forgetting what Jesus did for us on a tree by undoing the original sin of Adam and Eve who sinned by grasping for fruit on a tree and eating it. Lent is a sobering time to deal with our sins and how much we are like Adam and Eve. Could you look at Jesus on a crucifix right and say to him “you died for me and I couldn’t care less???” I sure hope not. Blessing to you and your community this week. Fr Zach

Growing in the Gospel - 1st Sunday of Lent

In this podcast for Growing in the Gospel, I dive into Matthew 4:1-11. After his Baptism and spending 40 days and 40 nights in the wilderness Jesus is temped by the Evil one three times and uses sacred scripture to shut up the evil one. The song is Weather and Stone By Mike Mangione and the Union.

7th Sunday - thats unusual

In today’s homily I look at how unusual Christians ought to be with Jesus’ charge to love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you. That’s pretty unusual.

5th Sunday in Ordinary Time - Living at the Foot of the Cross

In this Homily I look at St Paul talking about knowing Jesus Christ alone and him crucified - learning how to live from there always in light of St Theresa Of Avila and St. Theresa of Calcutta’s teaching. One way of keeping all of this in perspective is to reflect on the life and death of Kobe Bryant.
