What is Secret
I first learned about Daniel 13 when I was part of a lay team presenting to a group of men at a local retreat centre. I was half my current age back then, and hardly had the confidence I now … Continue reading

Everything I Have
The Prodigal Son, a well-known story from Scripture, is today’s Gospel. I am sure you have heard the words dozens of times, have thought about which son you are before, and seen how merciful the father is. Homilies take all … Continue reading
