Homily from the The Epiphany of the Lord Indifference can turn into hostility. Christ has come close. And yet, we all still have a choice: will we remain indifferent to His presence or will we seek Him out? If we choose indifference, we will not remain indifferent. When it comes to God, we either give Him our hearts or we remove Him from our lives. Mass Readings from January 4, 2026:Isaiah 60:1-6Psalm 72:1-2, 7-8, 10-11, 12-13Ephesians 3:2-3a, 5-6 Matthew 2:1-12

Homily from the Solemnity of Mary, the Holy Mother of God Resolve: I will not take these things for granted. We are surrounded by the amazing and miraculous every day. But we often miss it because our lives are too busy and too full. If we take a page out of Mary, the Mother of God's book, we would reflect on all these things...and no longer take them for granted.

Send us a text by clicking this link!A neighborhood teen walks into a midnight Latin Mass and steps straight into a world of chant, candlelight, and awe. That single moment sets the tone for a wide-ranging conversation about faith that's lived, not branded—how ordinary Catholic family life can quietly evangelize a restless culture craving stability, fatherhood, and hope.We trade UK and US vantage points and compare media narratives with street-level reality. Are things truly burning, or are we binging on spectacle? We tackle the perennial “war on Christmas,” the corporate habit of sanitizing holy days, and the rise of a substitute liturgical calendar that tries to replace the Incarnation with new rituals and new saints. The throughline is clear: without a supernatural core, culture-building becomes cosplay. Tradition isn't window dressing; it's the scaffolding that carries meaning from one generation to the next.We don't stop at headlines. Mark shares the searing loss of his daughter, the decade of ache that followed, and the surprising graces that kept him moving—community, providence, and a daughter named Mary who arrived like a gift from heaven. Katherine speaks with candor about costly choices, how personal relief often shifts pain onto children, and why love sometimes means carrying the cross instead of outsourcing it. Along the way, we reflect on fatherhood statistics, Protestant critiques of Christmas, and the difference between wielding Christianity as a tool and receiving it as life.If you've ever wondered whether small fidelities matter—family meals, icons on the wall, prayer before bed, Sunday Mass—this conversation says yes. Light still enters the darkness. Grace still heals what pride breaks.

Homily for Sunday Mass given by Fr. Dennis O'Keeffe

Homily from the Feast of the Holy Family of Jesus, Mary and Joseph The "trad family" goes back farther than the 1950's...

Faith Matters is a weekly podcast for the Messenger newsletter of the Basilica School of Saint Mary, which gets distributed to Basilica School families. It features Father Edward Hathaway, the rector of the Basilica. In this week's episode, Fr. Hathaway shares about issues two upcoming feast days: the Presentation of the Blessed Virgin Mary tomorrow and Christ the King on Sunday. He also reflects about his recent pilgrimage to Italy with a group of Basilica parishioners.  To learn more about Father's pilgrimage to Italy, click here for Facebook or click here for Instagram. Reminder:  The Parish Offices will close Wednesday, November 26th, at 1 p.m. and will remain closed on November 27th and 28th for the holiday. There will be one Mass on Thanksgiving Day – at 9 a.m. There will be no 6:30 a.m. Mass on Friday, November 28th, but the 8 a.m. and 12:10 p.m. Masses on that day will occur. For those who attend the Thanksgiving Day Mass: please bring grocery bags of non-perishable food items that will be donated to help feed the needy. They will be brought up during the offertory.  The Basilica will be adopting new Sunday Mass times starting next Sunday, November 30th. The 11:30 a.m. Mass will begin at 12 (noon), and the 1 p.m. Mass will start at 1:30 p.m. All other Mass times on Sunday will remain the same. The Sunday Vigil Mass at 5 p.m. will also remain the same. The two shifts in time will allow more time for worship and fellowship and to help ease the parking transitions between two of our Masses, including our standing-room only High Mass at 10 a.m.    

This episode is packed with sharp opinions and fascinating, often absurd, conversations: Lionel rages against his perpetual coffee machine woes and lip balm addiction, discusses his “shoot me list” (which includes wearing white socks with Birkenstocks and arguing about abortion at 3 AM), and celebrates Trump's unapologetic bluntness. Listeners call in to tackle complicated topics like separating genuine claims from "gravy train" opportunists within the Epstein files and life as a long-haul truck driver. The episode then dives deep into the strange world of faith and spirituality, discussing a trial lawyer's case involving a double board-certified doctor and an exorcism ministry that names demons like Jezebel and Lucifer. The conversation continues with an Eastern Orthodox priest on the absurdity of faith healing (like Ernest Angley's "foul deaf spirit be gone" technique) and deep theological questions surrounding Limbo, unbaptized infants, and controversial reports about the Pope potentially abolishing the Sunday Mass obligation.

Father McTeigue completes his reflections from earlier in the week, explaining that most people don't realize what sin is, and don't understand the rupture that it causes. Until we grasp this, we cannot grow in the spiritual life.

The great filmmaker Guillermo Del Toro has a new adaptation of Frankenstein. He saw the 1931 film when he was 7. “I realized I understood my faith better through Frankenstein than through Sunday Mass,” he tells Terry Gross. “And I decided at age seven that the creature of Frankenstein was gonna be my personal avatar and my personal messiah.” His other films include Pan's Labyrinth and The Shape of Water. Also, we hear from Cameron Crowe, who wrote and directed Jerry Maguire, Say Anything and the semi-autobiographical film Almost Famous, about writing for Rolling Stone starting at age 15. His new memoir is about being a naive teen, exposed to the excesses of rock musicians.Learn more about sponsor message choices: podcastchoices.com/adchoicesNPR Privacy Policy

Why are Catholics obligated to attend Mass every Sunday? The Catechism teaches us today about the centrality of the Sunday celebration of the Eucharist in the life of the Church. Fr. Mike emphasizes that Sunday Mass is at the heart of our worship because it is the participation in the representation of the Paschal Mystery. He invites us to honor the Sunday obligation out of love for Jesus. Today's readings are Catechism paragraphs 2177-2183. This episode has been found to be in conformity with the Catechism by the Institute on the Catechism, under the Subcommittee on the Catechism, USCCB. For the complete reading plan, visit ascensionpress.com/ciy Please note: The Catechism of the Catholic Church contains adult themes that may not be suitable for children - parental discretion is advised.
