Always Be Prepared: The Two Judgments & Eternal Happiness – Nov 16 – Homily – Fr Maximilian W
Views 17
Fr. Maximilian M. Warnisher gives the homily from Our Lady's Chapel (New Bedford, MA), on the Thirty-Third Sunday in Ordinary Time (Nov 16, 2025), reflecting on Jesus’ teaching about the Final Judgment, the destruction of the Temple, and the need to remain constantly prepared, noting that no signs or timelines are given in order to help us cultivate a constant spiritual readiness for death and the end times.
Drawing on Scripture and the "three comings of Christ," Father urges listeners to prioritize eternal happiness over worldly prestige, using the example of St. Aloysius Gonzaga's immediate readiness for death as a model for how to live.
