From the 19th Sunday in Ordinary Time, Fr. Dom discusses the importance of community and prayer in overcoming isolation and finding strength in God. Fr. Dom touches on his experience with his latest retreat in the mountains of Colorado, emphasizing the power of prayer and fraternity. The homily explores the story of Elijah and how he found strength in God during times of isolation and despair. He encourages listeners to seek solace in prayer, the sacraments, and the covenant of baptism. Finally, Fr. Dom challenges all people to boldly proclaim the truth and stand against societal challenges.
Takeaways

  • Community and fraternity are essential in overcoming isolation and finding strength in God.
  • Prayer is a lifeline to God and can help us overcome feelings of loneliness and despair.
  • The sacraments, especially the Eucharist, provide strength and rejuvenation for our spiritual journey.
  • Baptism is a reminder of God's covenant and our identity as priests, prophets, and kings.
  • As Christians, we are called to boldly proclaim the truth and stand against societal challenges.

Food for Thought

  1. "Even though we were separated, we were still connected and they were praying us up the mountain."
  2. "A Christian alone is a Christian in danger."
  3. "Eat. Eat my flesh and drink my blood, as he says in our gospel, for you will have eternal life."

Fr. Dom explores the themes of being prophets, the significance of baptism, the history of the split of the 12 tribes of Israel, the role of the apostles in uniting the tribes, and the call for all Catholics to be prophets in their own way. In this homily, he encourages us to embrace our baptism and use it as a source of strength and unity. He touches on the power of prayer and fasting, the importance of never giving up on praying for those who have fallen away from the Catholic faith, and the various ways in which individuals can be prophets.
Takeaways

  1. We are called to be prophets and mouthpieces of God, just like Amos and the apostles.
  2. Baptism is a powerful gift that connects us to God and gives us the strength to be prophets.
  3. The split in the 12 tribes of Israel was a result of division, schism, and idolatry.
  4. The apostles, as bishops, unite the tribes and continue the work of baptism and bringing restoration and unity.
  5. All Catholics are called to be prophets in their own way, whether through evangelization, prayer, fasting, or other means.

Sound Bites

  • "Original sin is wiped away. Wow. Nothing wipes away original sin. Original sin is the effect of Adam and Eve in the garden. We're born into it. Nothing gets rid of it except baptism."
  • "And I'll do it. And he unites the 12 tribes finally with the 12 apostles. That's a huge connection that we need to make as Catholics. That the tribes have been united."
  • "Guess what? You are prophets. You are the mouthpiece of God. And the baptism gives you strength and confession and the Eucharist and confirmation. That's what you're called to do."
