Fr Terrance gives the homily at Bloomington, IN on Dec 11, 2021, on how the example of St John the Baptist and the prophets let us know when to speak and when to be silent.

Jesus, Comparing John the Baptist with his own preaching

John the Baptist fire and brimstone, Jesus meek and mild. Both were rejected because the message of conversion was not welcome.

But how and when to speak up takes wisdom and for this, we need to pray.

Ave Maria!
