Things that Fr. Adam Voisin has said in homilies and talks and stuff.

You will not be acceptable to God because you are a good person, but because you know you're a sinner in need of God's mercy.

The corporal works of mercy: To feed the hungry To give water to the thirsty To clothe the naked To shelter the homeless To visit the sick To visit the imprisoned To bury the dead

Humility is the key to happiness.

Expect division.

Walk by faith...

Do not forget the one necessary thing.

The Trinity tells us so much. It tells us: Who God is (i.e., that God is love) Who we are and what we are made for (i.e., we are created in God's image and likeness and made for love) That we are never alone (i.e., God wants to "move in" to our soul) If you want to hear my homily about how the Trinity does not imply a logical contradiction, click HERE.

Four of the lessons that every disciple of Jesus must learn: 1. After we encounter Jesus, life cannot go back to normal or to business as usual. 2. We need to learn to recognize Jesus 3. We need to learn that it's always better to do what Jesus says, even when it doesn't make sense to us. 4. We need to learn humility.Â

Love your enemies. Yes, even that one.
