Where’s Jesus? At the Tomb | Homily for the Fifth Sunday of Lent | Fr. Will Rooney
March 17th, 2024 | Season 3 | 15 mins 28 secs
5, a, lazarus, lent
Friends, in our own way, we have all been in this situation where hope seems to fade away. God is seemingly silent during human suffering and misery. On a grand worldwide scale, and on the small personal scale – we all experience the four days of the tomb. God is not in fact, absent but sometimes he works silently. God so loves us brothers and sisters that he refuses to let death have the last say. God so loves us that he sends his only beloved Son, to die for us and rise from the dead, that all who believe in him might have eternal life. He dies to prove to us how much God loves us. Jesus comes not simply to heal us a little bit, but to raise the dead to new life.

Where's Jesus? Outcast | Homily for the Fourth Sunday of Lent | Fr. Will Rooney
March 10th, 2024 | Season 3 | 15 mins 27 secs
4, a, blind, lent
To live with the knowledge of having encountered Christ means that we realize the immensity of the task before us, because we like the blind man cannot stay silent. Part of the man’s healing was to walk through the city with mud on his eyes, and then to return healed so that all could see him. And immediately, people begin to question him. So also, as people will inevitably question any Christian with the courage to live according to the new law of Christ. If we are willing to live according to the new law of grace, we will draw many people to also encounter him.

Where’s Jesus? He Thirsts for you! | Homily for 3rd Sunday of Lent | Fr. Will Rooney
March 3rd, 2024 | Season 3 | 13 mins 10 secs
2024, 3, b, lent
Where's Jesus been in your life this week? How are you doing in allowing him to teach you how to resist temptation like he taught in the Gospel 2 weeks ago? Are you thinking of heaven? What about sacrifice and glory? In this week's message (only in audio), we find ourselves near a well in Samaria, longing for lasting joy. Often, we seek worldly pleasures to quench our thirst, forgetting that only Christ offers living water. Despite our misguided pursuits, He thirsts for our souls, offering fulfillment beyond earthly desires. As we hear His call, let us not harden our hearts, for He alone can satisfy our deepest longings.

Glory and Sacrifice | Homily for the Second Sunday of Lent | Fr. Will Rooney
February 25th, 2024 | Season 3 | 14 mins 3 secs
2, b, lent
Each Sunday in Lent we will ask "Where's Jesus?" so that we can be with him and imitate him. Today, we are on Mount Tabor, and Jesus teaches we are called to glory. In the very act of showing us the end, Jesus also shows us that the glory of the Resurrection only comes about through sacrifice. And that the sacrifice of faith, the sacrifice which God asks of us, requires some sort of death.
