Worldly Wants vs. Heavenly Humility – Oct 20 – Homily – Fr Alan

 

Fr. Alan B. Maria Wharton gives the from Our Lady's Chapel, New Bedford, MA, for the Twenty-ninth Sunday in Ordinary Time (Oct 20, 2024), on how we are like James and John--not ignorant, but blind--to the "elephant in the room": our preoccupation with worldly pursuits and rewards. Christian discipleship is a journey to glory with Jesus, but not without being crucified with him.

Ave Maria!
