On the Second Sunday of Lent, Fr. Will reflects on the Transfiguration: why Jesus reveals His glory to Peter, James, and John—and how that vision strengthens the disciples against the coming scandal of the Cross. Connecting the Gospel to the Lenten series on the deadly sins, this homily explores sloth (acedia) as “sorrow at spiritual joy,” and calls us to renewed zeal: living our mission, investing in prayer, and loving those closest to us with diligence.

Jesus doesn’t say, “Try to become” salt and light—He says, “You are.” In this second homily on the Sermon on the Mount, Dcn. Chris invites us to examine what’s diluting our discipleship, what’s covering the lamp of faith in our daily lives, and how concrete love for the poor and vulnerable makes God visible. The week’s practical invitation: consider a consecration to St. Joseph (men) or Our Lady (women) as a steady path toward renewed witness.
