The Lukan Jump

The homilies and reflections of a young Byzantine Catholic priest trying to figure it all out! The (actual) Lukan Jump is a more or less yearly occurrence in the lectionary of the Byzantine rite.

Luke is a priest of the Byzantine Catholic Archeparchy (Archdiocese) of Pittsburgh, and serves as administrator of St. Mary's Byzantine Catholic Church in Weirton, WV and St. John the Baptist Byzantine Catholic Church in Avella, PA.

Episodios

Rejoice! God Is with Us - March 29, 2026 30.03.2026

Fr. Luke's Palm Sunday homily, as preached at St. John the Baptist Byzantine Catholic Church in Avella, PA.

The Crisis and the Cross - March 26, 2026 27.03.2026

A recent magazine article announced the impending death of our Church. Here are my thoughts in response.

Single Origin - March 25, 2026 26.03.2026

Christ is from the Father; we are made by the Father... do we think about how strange it is that He became our Brother?

Cleaning Our Consciences - March 21, 2026 23.03.2026

On the Sunday of St. Mary of Egypt, let's turn our thoughts to our need for the grace of God and the power of the Blood of Jesus Christ!

Getting in God's Way - March 15, 2026 16.03.2026

The Cross is an unavoidable part of Christian life. But, sometimes it's not that; sometimes we just get in God's way!

Hearing Better - March 14, 2026 14.03.2026

We need grace to be able to hear and respond to the Word of God!

A Listening Attitude - March 13, 2026 14.03.2026

God called Abram to begin an entirely new phase of salvation history at the age of 75. Would we be ready to do the same?

Making a Name for Ourselves - March 12, 2026.mp3 13.03.2026

How often do we try to build our own little Tower of Babel — an exercise in futility?

What Did We Sign Up For? - March 8, 2026 08.03.2026

Fr. Luke talks Shayne Smith, Sheetz runs, and claims he's taking more of the matins canon than we actually took last night; does that resemble how much we actually take up our cross?

Death Is Radically Relativized - March 7, 2026 07.03.2026

In Christ, we recognize Death as the enemy, and yet there's something relatively insignificant to physical death...

Not Flooding the Earth - March 6, 2026 07.03.2026

God knows our thoughts tend to evil, and yet He shows us mercy!

600 Years of Preparation - March 4, 2026 05.03.2026

Noah was 600 years old when the Flood came. So what?

Using the Forgotten Sacraments - March 1, 2026 01.03.2026

Jesus Christ left us seven sacraments, but it seems like maybe we've forgotten how to use two of them. Hopefully this will help!

Unhealthy Attachments - February 27, 2026 28.02.2026

What does it mean that "the sons of God" married "the daughters of earth?" What does it mean for me? Is the Old Testament okay with polygamy? Am I doing something similar? Please forgive the poor audio quality; I didn't have my usual equipment.

The Springsteen Snare - February 22, 2026 24.02.2026

Wherein Fr. Luke comments on Bruce Springsteen, our pious and God-fearing ancestors in the Faith, the Second Vatican Council, and the fact that God's plan includes us, here and now.

Fr. Luke Was Unprepared 16.02.2026

I read a great article about Scandinavian outdoor culture and failed to apply it. But hey, I got this homily on Romans out of my goof-up.

Are We in a Biker Gang? - February 8, 2026 09.02.2026

Are our good deeds done out of love for God and our neighbor, or are they just brand promotion?

Homily for the Encounter - February 2, 2026 03.02.2026

Jesus Christ submits to His own law. Why does this matter?

Does God Accept Repentance? - February 1, 2026 02.02.2026

A saying from the Desert Fathers relates rather well to the Parable of the Prodigal Son

Hoping in God - January 18, 2026 20.01.2026

A homily on Christian hope, which is different from optimism, pessimism, and a Microsoft Excel spreadsheet.

Seeing the Kingdom - January 11, 2026 19.01.2026

On the Sunday after Theophany, I reflected on the true signs of the Kingdom of God.

Excused from Joy? - December 14, 2025 15.12.2025

When we make excuses for not living a Christian life, are we in fact excusing ourselves from a good time?

Finding the Will of God - December 7, 2025 09.12.2025

We can overcomplicate discerning God's will. Hopefully this homily will help simplify things.

The Calling of a Christian - November 30, 2025 08.12.2025

Christians are called to be more than just good people. But what exactly are we called to? I took a swing at explaining it.

A Dwelling Place of God - November 23, 2025 02.12.2025

St. Paul tells us that we are the place where God dwells. Are we living accordingly?
