Fr. Edward Looney Preaches

The Samaritan Woman has a profound experience with Jesus. We can have that too. But after we do, then what happens? How should I live? What’s my response?

Jesus called his apostles friends. And in the Transfiguration he shares an experience with three of them. In this homily Fr Looney shares about the friendships of Jesus and how they speak to us during the season of Lent.

We need to ask the Holy Spirit to help us more in our life and scrutinize our actions and decisions.

Let’s talk about your faith. Who did you get your faith from? Why do you believe? In whom do you believe?

Peter, Andrew, James, and John left everything to follow Jesus. Missionaries did the same. What about you? What’s holding you back?

Have you asked God for a sign? Should you? It’s a good question to reflect on.

We have expectations. The people of Israel had expectations. John expected the coming of Jesus. The bishop during the Guadalupe apparitions expected Juan to be a fraud. What do you expect of Jesus. Why not a miracle?

Mary was without sin. I wonder if people noticed how different she was from everyone else. I reflect on who she was in this Immaculate Conception homily.

What voices do you listen to? People listened to John and so should we. But what voice is the most important?

Using the weekend readings, Fr. Edward extracts different ways they teach us to pray.

Saint Paul tells us to pray for Kings and those in authority. That can be hard when you disagree with them. Let Fr. Looney explain how to pray for our government officials.

Moses, St. Paul, and the Prodigal Son, what do they all have in common? They have pasts they can dwell on but instead they should focus on who they are and wish to become. Remember who you are not who you were!

Embrace your cross daily and you’ll experience the resurrected life.

Conduct your affairs with humility. What does a humble person look like? Fr. Edward explains in this weekend’s homily.

Fr. Edward recently was interviewed about Fatima for the History Channel which allowed him to see this weekend’s gospel through that lens.
