In this homily, F. Scott Foley reflects on the difference between worldly power and prestige and the true freedom found in surrendering our hearts to Jesus. He reminds us that Christ desires our hearts so that His grace can transform our lives and bring healing not only to us, but also to our families, communities, and the wider world. A central focus of the homily is the Sacrament of Reconciliation, where we encounter the mercy of God in a powerful and personal way. F. Scott Foley encourages anyone who has been away from confession to return with faith, reminding us that it is never too late to seek God's forgiveness. A sincere confession is a victory over sin and temptation, a step toward holiness, and a witness to the transforming power of Divine Mercy.

Friendship and companionship give purpose to labor and sustain people in work and grief. We discuss why we have missed a few weeks of the podcast, and we catch back up with Will Rose on how his Sabbatical went! Pastor Will draws on Ecclesiastes to argue that two are better than one and that friendship enriches vocation and productivity. He describes his sabbatical, its rest and reflection, and the way discernment guides where he spends his energy. Joshua Noel and TJ Blackwell probe practical church logistics, volunteer roles, and the unseen work that keeps worship and community life functioning. The hosts and guest emphasize healthy boundaries, the value of shared ministry, and simple practices—such as reflecting on the altar and who gathers there—to foster unity and resilience. Will Rose frames the central meditation on vocation and rest with a reading from Ecclesiastes and a sustained account of his recent sabbatical. He describes deliberate time for reading, travel, family, and study. He reports progress on a book that unites surf culture with theology. The speaker situates sabbatical as a disciplined, communal practice. He explains its roots in Sabbath and jubilee traditions and its role in preventing burnout. He states that the work of ministry requires periodic renewal so that one may continue to serve with clarity and care. Joshua Noel and TJ Blackwell respond with questions and reflections that surface the tensions of modern ministry. They probe how one balances obligations to family, congregation, and personal projects. A recurrent theme is the necessity of discernment. The trio converge on the idea that vocation is a pattern of gathering and sending. Will affirms that presiding at the altar and serving people remain his core calling. He names serenity, courage, and wisdom as guiding principles for future decisions.Takeaways:Pastor Rose explains the purpose and value of a sabbatical for pastoral renewal and life discernment.Will notes that friendship and companionship improve meaning and productivity in both labor and ministry.Joshua and TJ discuss practical church logistics, including parking lot maintenance, campus ministry access, and volunteer role distribution.Will reflects on balancing multiple vocational interests, such as podcasting, book writing, and parish duties, to avoid burnout.Pastor Will recommends reflective practice at worship by focusing on the altar and the congregation's continuity across generations.They all acknowledge grief and changing life seasons, urging acceptance, courage to change what is possible, and wisdom..You can leave a donation, buy podcast merchandise, check out previous series that we've done, or become an official member of The Whole Church Podcast on our website:https://the-whole-church-podcast-shop.fourthwall.com/.Check out all of the other shows in the Anazao Podcast Network and find merch to support some of your favorite podcasts on the network's website:https://anazao-podcasts-shop.fourthwall.com/.Listen to all of our Holy Logistics series here:https://player.captivate.fm/collection/0baf30ad-3ecd-47a9-bbb4-d67e61e1919e.Hear more of Will on Systematic Geekology, Your Matter Matters, and The Homily:https://player.captivate.fm/collection/4559ab55-4b6a-4432-b0a7-b61540df8803https://your-matter-matters.captivate.fm/listenhttps://the-homily-with-chill-will.captivate.fm/listen.Listen to more of TJ on Systematic Geekology:https://player.captivate.fm/collection/f4c32709-d8ff-4cef-8dfd-5775275c3c5e.Hear more from Joshua on his other podcast, Be Living Water:https://be-living-water.captivate.fm/listen.Be sure to come out and meet Joshua at Theology Beer Camp 2026 in Kansas City:https://theologybeer.camp/

Homily - 25th Sunday in Ordinary Time - The Joy of the Vineyard

Homily - Feast of the Archangels - Liturgical Reminders

Sunday, September 27th, 2026, Homily by Fr. Don Planty

Fr. David Gunter, MIC reflected on the spiritual battle between good and evil, drawing attention to the importance of St. Michael the Archangel and devotion to Our Lady. He connected the message of Revelation 12 with the apparitions of Fatima in 1917, emphasizing St. Michael's role in defending the faithful against the forces of darkness. He also recalled the tradition that Pope Leo XIII had a disturbing mystical experience involving Satan's desire to attack the Church, after which the pope composed the Prayer to St. Michael the Archangel. Although this prayer was later removed from the regular prayers said after Mass following the liturgical reforms of the Second Vatican Council, devotion to St. Michael has continued to grow as Catholics seek spiritual protection. Fr. Gunter compared the moral confusion of the modern world to a biblical flood—not a flood of water, but one of immorality and sin. In the midst of this spiritual struggle, he presented the Blessed Virgin Mary as a loving mother who protects her children and the Church and leads them closer to Christ. He emphasized that devotion to Our Lady, encouraged in a special way by St. John Paul II, offers hope and spiritual strength in confronting the problems of our time. The teaching ultimately called Catholics to deepen their prayer, entrust themselves to the protection of Mary, and invoke St. Michael the Archangel for courage and defense in the continuing spiritual battle.

Homily from the Twenty-sixth Sunday in Ordinary Time Training ourselves to notice the negative. Many of us have a default stance to notice the negative. When it comes to our assessment of ourselves or of any given situation, our default setting can often be complaint. And yet God calls us to rise above, to stop noticing the negative and begin approaching His world with wonder and praise. Mass Readings from September 27, 2026: Ezekiel 18:25-28 Psalms 25:4-9Philippians 2:1-11 Matthew 21:28-32

What is the role of white women in Christian Nationalism? With the author of Live Laugh Love and Jesus and John Wayne, Kristin Kobes Du Mez. More about Dr. Du Mez and her incredible work and books: https://kristindumez.com The MUCH anticipated new book from professor Kristin Kobes Du Mez is here: Live Laugh Love: The Secret History of White Christian Women and the World they Made. It is something of a companion to her NYT bestseller, Jesus and John Wayne. Whereas Jesus and John Wayne took a look at the roots and creation of an idolatrous vision of Jesus as ruggedly masculine and pro-Christian Nationalism, this book looks at the parallel process for women -- and this glittering, seductively saccharine world that is prone to abuse and manipulation. It was, as she said, "supposed to be fun." But it turned in something far more sinister. Listen in for more.  +++ Like what you hear?

Fr. Tyler Mentzer, MIC, reflects on today's Gospel by reminding us that the Lord is leading us into His holiness and teaching us to trust the love of the Father, even through suffering. God may permit trials and spiritual desolation, as St. Ignatius of Loyola teaches, so that we can recognize our poverty and our complete dependence on Him. Suffering can reveal how little we truly control and help us see that everything we have is a gift from God. The story of Job shows this trust clearly. After losing nearly everything precious to him, Job still recognized that he came into the world with nothing and would leave it the same way, and he continued to bless the name of the Lord. In our own suffering, instead of only asking, “Why is this happening to me?” we can ask, “Lord, what are You trying to teach me through this?” We may not understand the answer, but we can trust that God is a good Father who is strengthening us, forming us, and drawing us deeper into His love.

Whatever "working in the vineyard" means for you, there are times in which we wrestle with God's will.

II Corinthians 6:16–18; 7:1 Holiness is real, and the people around us live with the consequences of what we are becoming. Drawing on 2 Corinthians and Saint John Chrysostom, we explore how pride can corrupt even our good deeds—and how remembering Who dwells in us can teach us to repent, give with mercy, and become a blessing to our neighbors.  You can read more on this at OrthoAnalytika.org.  Enjoy the show!
