This sermon on the Feast of the Presentation of Jesus in the Temple highlights the themes of waiting and suffering, both in the lives of Simeon and Anna and in our own. Mary and Joseph bring Jesus to the temple for consecration, where they encounter Simeon, who proclaims Jesus as the fulfillment of God's promise, and Anna, who rejoices at His arrival. These two elderly prophets represent Israel's long wait for redemption, a wait filled with suffering and longing. Like them, we also experience waiting and suffering in our lives—seeking relief from sin, loneliness, grief, and brokenness. The sermon reminds us that Jesus, the Light of the world, does not stay distant from our pain but enters into it, sharing in our suffering and ultimately overcoming it through His death and resurrection. The devil tempts us to doubt God's promises, but Christ's presence—especially in the Eucharist—assures us that He is with us always. As we navigate life's challenges, we are encouraged to trust in Christ, who brings comfort and peace. The blessed candle serves as a reminder that even in darkness, Jesus is present, our light and salvation, guiding us until we rest in His eternal peace.Waiting and Suffering Are Part of Faith – Like Simeon and Anna, we often wait for God's promises to be fulfilled. Though this waiting can involve suffering, it is not in vain because God is always faithful. Jesus Enters Into Our Pain – Christ does not remain distant from our struggles but shares in our suffering. Through His life, death, and resurrection, He brings redemption and hope to those who feel lost or broken. Christ is Our Light in Darkness – Just as the blessed candle symbolizes Jesus as the Light of the World, He continues to shine in our lives. In moments of doubt and despair, we can trust that He is present, guiding us toward His peace and eternal salvation.
This sermon on the Baptism of the Lord emphasizes Jesus' identity as the beloved Son of God and the profound significance of His baptism. At His baptism, the heavens open, the Holy Spirit descends, and the Father declares, "You are my beloved Son; with you I am well pleased." Jesus, though sinless, enters the waters not for His sake but to sanctify them for our salvation, cleansing and preparing them to wash away sin for generations to come. Despite this act of love, people often resist Jesus. Some desire a harsher, judgmental figure, while others feel unworthy of His compassion, expecting abandonment and condemnation. Both responses stem from fear and misunderstanding of Jesus' true nature. The sermon highlights that Jesus' baptism is a demonstration of divine love and compassion. He comes to restore the broken, free the bound, and cleanse the sinful. Through baptism, we are made beloved children of God, called to repentance, renewal, and a life of radical love and compassion for others. Jesus invites us to enter the waters of repentance, to be transformed, and to embrace our identity as God's beloved children. In this, we find freedom, renewal, and a mission to share His love with the world.

This sermon reflects on the disintegration of families and communities, identifying the human heart as central to the problem. The story of Mary and Joseph anxiously searching for the boy Jesus highlights the importance of being in the Father's house, where priorities are realigned, hearts are nourished, and families are strengthened. Jesus' response, “Did you not know that I must be in my Father's house?” underscores that spiritual grounding in God's presence is essential for individuals and families to flourish. The sermon challenges us to reflect on misplaced priorities—whether due to work, activities, or distractions—that pull us away from God's house. Pastor Vieth calls for repentance, reminding us that church is where we are born, fed, and reminded of our true identity in Christ. It is also where we are prepared to be sent out to extend God's love and mercy to others, strengthening our cities, neighborhoods, and families. Finally, the sermon encourages the congregation to act as a holy family, sharing Christ's love with the world and pointing others to the Father's house for healing, restoration, and peace. By reprioritizing God's mission, we are called to participate in the rebuilding of broken families and communities.

We continue our Best of 2024 episodes with an episode from the Democracy Decoded podcast, with host Simone Leeper.In the end, the worst of everyone's election fears — political violence, overt foreign interference or a razor-thin margin between Kamala Harris and Donald Trump leading to a hotly contested legal battle — did not come to pass. Instead, Donald Trump won a plurality of votes for president, and did so decisively. On January 20, 2025, he will once again become the country's most powerful executive.His victory raises weighty questions for the experts at Campaign Legal Center. Trump ran explicitly on a platform of behaving like an authoritarian, promising to fire U.S. civil servants, threatening opponents with jail, and brandishing military force against would-be dissenters. As his return to power approaches, we grapple with a paradoxical election, in which voters declared their preference for the candidate who repeatedly threatened the American system as we know it.Joining Simone in this episode are Trevor Potter, CLC's president and founder, and CLC senior vice presidents Paul M. Smith and Bruce Spiva. They offer their forecasts for the uncertain years ahead and explain what this election did (and did not) signify about the health of American democracy.Read the full transcriptHost and Guests:Simone Leeper litigates a wide range of redistricting-related cases at CLC, challenging gerrymanders and advocating for election systems that guarantee all voters an equal opportunity to influence our democracy.

This week's reading from St. James offers a stark warning to the rich about the fleeting nature of wealth, while the Gospel contains harsh admonitions about sin, with Jesus encouraging the removal of anything that causes sin, even if that means drastic measures. Despite this challenging message, we can find hope in the first reading of the lectionary for this week, where Moses wishes for all of God's people to be prophets, filled with the Spirit. Like all of the weeks of this series, we are invited to be open—to God's Word, to seeing others and ourselves through Jesus' eyes, and to receiving wisdom that is pure and sincere. This openness should extend to using our time, talent, and treasures to serve God and others, echoing the refrain of the sermon series, "Be open."1. Wealth and Possessions are Temporary: The readings warn against placing too much value on material wealth, as it will eventually decay and fail to bring lasting fulfillment. 2. Openness to God is Crucial: The central theme of the sermon is "Be open." We are called to be open to God's Word, to seeing others as He sees them, and to using our time and talents for His glory. 3. Everyone is Called to be a Prophet: Like Moses, God desires all His people to be filled with His Spirit and to proclaim His Word through their words and actions. 4. Sacrifice for Righteousness: The Gospel reading emphasizes the importance of cutting out sin from our lives, even if it requires difficult or drastic changes. 5. Commitment to Service: The sermon challenges the congregation to commit their time, talent, and treasure to God's work, embracing openness as a way of life in their faith journey.
This sermon focuses on the theme of active faith and its transformative power in our lives. It begins by discussing how openness—both of the heart and the eyes—enables us to see ourselves and Jesus for who we truly are. The pivotal question from the Gospel, "Who do you say that I am?" leads to Peter's confession, "You are the Christ," which lies at the center of Christian faith. However, faith is not just a declaration; it is meant to be lived out through actions. Jesus teaches that faith involves denying oneself, taking up the cross, and following Him. St. James reinforces this in his epistle, stating that faith without works is dead. The sermon challenges listeners to move beyond lip service and embrace a faith that is active, even when it hurts. Faith requires us to prioritize Christ above all else, which may lead to rejection and suffering. Yet, through this death to self, new life and healing emerge. The sermon concludes by urging listeners to use their gifts for God's kingdom, becoming part of a chain reaction of resurrection that transforms lives.

In this episode of the Fly Fishing Insider podcast, host Christian Bacasa interviews Kip Vieth from Wildwood Float Trips. They discuss bass fishing in the Mississippi River and the unique characteristics of the fishery. The conversation covers topics such as water temperatures, fish behavior, fly patterns, and fishing techniques. Kip shares his insights and experiences as a guide in the area, providing valuable information for anglers interested in smallmouth bass fishing. In this conversation, Kip Vieth discusses his approach to fishing for smallmouth bass. He explains that he primarily fishes topwater near the bank or rocks, but in the summer, he switches to mid-river patterns. Vieth emphasizes the importance of manipulating the fly after the strip, creating a motion after the motion to entice strikes. He also discusses the significance of fishing the drop-offs and edges, as well as the visual aspect of smallmouth fishing. Vieth recommends using larger rods and flies to trigger aggressive strikes from smallmouth bass. Takeaways The Mississippi River offers excellent smallmouth bass fishing opportunities, with clear water, diverse habitats, and a variety of fly fishing techniques. Water temperatures in the river range from 55°F in May to the mid-80s°F in August, with the best fishing usually occurring in the spring and early fall. Topwater flies like poppers and divers are effective for smallmouth bass, especially in the summer. Other successful fly patterns include crayfish imitations, minnow patterns, and sculpin patterns. Fishing techniques vary depending on the season and conditions, but dead drifting flies, stripping streamers, and using a sink tip line are common approaches. Catch and release is the norm for smallmouth bass in the Mississippi River, with regulations allowing for the keeping of one fish over 20 inches. The river is also home to other species like muskie, pike, and walleye, providing additional fishing opportunities. Fishing topwater near the bank or rocks is effective for smallmouth bass. In the summer, switch to mid-river patterns and focus on drop-offs and edges. Manipulate the fly after the strip to create a motion after the motion.

This sermon emphasizes the importance of openness in the Christian faith, as exemplified by the word "Ephphatha," meaning "be open" in Mark 7. The call in St. James' epistle today is for Christians to be impartial and open-hearted, recognizing the value and dignity of every person, regardless of their status. The overarching theme is that being open to others is the way of Christ, the way of heaven, and should be the way of the Church. We are encouraged to see Christ in everyone and to participate actively in the work of salvation by showing love and compassion to all, without partiality.Openness to God's Word: The sermon emphasizes the importance of keeping our hearts open to welcome God's Word, allowing Jesus to purify and work through us.Ephphatha – Be Open: The call to be open extends beyond just our hearts; it involves every part of us—our ears, eyes, and actions—so that we can fully engage in God's work and see His will for us.Impartiality in Faith: Christians are urged to be impartial, treating everyone with the same love and respect, regardless of their status or appearance, reflecting the reality of heaven on earth.Seeing Christ in Others: The sermon encourages believers to view every person through the lens of Christ, recognizing that each individual is created and redeemed by Him.Active Participation in Christ's Work: Followers of Christ are called to participate in His salvific work by using their unique gifts to bless others, particularly those who are marginalized or in need.
This homily introduces our new sermon series and small group study titled "Faith and _______," inspired by the epistle of James. The series aims to ignite a deeply active faith in us as believers, focusing on different acts or virtues each week. As we begin these five weeks wading through St. James' epistle, it's important to note that he's writing about the way of heaven not the way to heaven. In this first week, St. James is encouraging us to open our hearts to receive and welcome God's Word, allowing it to transform and purify us. In this first week of our series, before we get into the nitty gritty of being doers of the Word in future weeks, let us first commune with the Lord which will quiet and heal their hearts.

Every time the Church stands at an inflection point in its history; the Lord has one request: rest a while. After intensely laboring and looking to further the mission of Christ, the Lord asks us to come and simply be with him so that he can give us repose and refresh our soul. By doing this, it helps us keep the main thing the main thing. As Trinity stands at an inflection point in the history of our church and school and looks to break ground, the Lord invites us into this rest. This rest enlivens and motivates us for the next chapter of our journey as we continue to fix our eyes on Jesus and pull more people into the rest he offers.
Like Jesus' own kin, we are cursed by familiarity. We know who Jesus is with our heads, but for some reason the wonder of our hearts has been transformed into apathy. We begin to believe the devil when he asks if God really said, or if God can really handle our situations in life, or if he can really act. This only leads us to become apathetic toward our struggle against the vices and false promises the world offers. But it only makes our faith shrink more. Jesus marvels at our lack of faith, but that isn't his final or greatest feeling toward us. Instead, he invites us to come closer to him; to let him come through the door of our hearts after he's knocked. What if we actually invited the Lord into those places that have hurt us the most? He promises to dwell there with us, and in his own beautiful way, he'll either take the thorn away from our flesh or he'll teach us through the pain a more beautiful lesson, if only we'll let him. Could we, with the centurion and with our blessed Mother Mary, begin to pray “Say the word Lord and I shall be healed.” “Let it be unto me according to your word.”
When God asked Adam and Eve after the Fall, “Where are you?” He wasn't inquiring about the location of their bodies, but the location of their hearts. By eating the forbidden fruit and straying from the Lord, our first parents lost their identity and began to search for it behind fig leaves. Our fig leaves have gotten more sophisticated over the years, but they have the same goal: to hide the decay of our outer self. God doesn't leave mankind in this misery, though. He promises a seed that will make all things right again. Jesus takes onto himself that which makes us most ashamed: our human flesh. He sanctifies it and calls us back to our true identity in him. The worst thing we can do is to reject this gift and the working of the Spirit in us. Jesus wants us back as his brothers and sisters – our truest identity! We should let his will be done.

“God himself is an eternal exchange of love, Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, and he has destined us to share in that exchange.” (CCC 221) “In the core of the Trinity, the Father laughs and gives birth to the Son. The Son laughs back at the Father and gives birth to the Spirit. The whole Trinity laughs and gives birth to us. All things love God.” (Meister Eckhart) Our human minds may not be able plunge into the depths of who the Trinity is, but what we do know is that God wants to share his exchange of love, laughter, and community with us. By taking our seat at the table of communion with him, we taste and touch heaven, we come into community with one another, and we are motivated all the more to draw more people into the mystery of God.

Love makes all things Natural.
It is the second Sunday of Easter, the end of the great octave. The vestiges of our Easter joy can still be felt. Yet, a faint shadow has snuck into our celebrations in the form of Thomas' doubt and our own. Jesus is risen, and yet we can't help but still be gripped by the reality of the darkness, sin, and brokenness that still plague us. When doubts arise, we revert to what we know and try and go at life on our own, trying to combat the darkness with darkness. Jesus, however, always draws near when we try and run away, He stoops down into our darkness and doubt to remind us of his presence, forgiveness, and light. Jesus always turns our doubt back to himself. He constantly gives himself to us in tangible ways to remind us of his presence, dispelling our doubt, disbelief, and fear.

Too often we have a false perspective of our suffering and only want to escape it.Jesus wants to show us through his suffering that there is some good in our suffering.Jesus welcomes us into his wounds so that we can see that perspective.
Today, Jesus asks us to sacrifice our crooked, disordered desire so that he might give us a greater, divinized desire. This is terribly difficult because our desires seem to be one of the deepest things about us. Satan has manipulated us into thinking that we are the only ones who can fulfill those desires. Yet, our hearts have become enslaved and have lost their freedom, leaving us looking only for the next pleasure, hit, high, or ecstasy that just might fulfill or satisfy them. We constantly choose darkness over light. In the midst of this, God shows his love for us by sending his Son in the flesh and we have shown our love back by loving the flesh more than the Son. This is horrifying, yet Jesus pursues us all the more. He doesn't leave us because he knows what's at stake. He doesn't want our eternal exile, but our eternal freedom. He keeps pursuing us, even through the excruciating pain of the cross, not only because his desire is for us but because he knows that our hearts will only be satisfied if they desire him. Jesus asks us to sacrifice our desire because we don't desire enough. He wants to divine our desire so that we can experience the One who can fill our hearts and our desire infinitely: himself.
There is objective truth.The more we hold onto our own, subjective truths the more they kill us. Jesus who is THE TRUTH comes to free us from the lies that deceive us and reminds us of the truest thing in the world: God and his love for us.
Today Jesus is giving you and me, Abraham and Isaac, Peter and the disciples, and the whole church catholic a test: will we choose God or will we choose the treasures of God? Too often we choose the treasures of God because we think they'll relieve our anxiety and worry and give us security. The truth is, though, that that is far from the truth. The more we try and hoard our treasures, the more worried and anxious we become. In that anxiety and worry, we try and rebuke Jesus when he comes to try and heal us. When we do this, he says to us what he said to Peter, “Get behind me, Satan! For you are not on the side of God but of men.” He doesn't say this to hurt us or to cast us into the darkness. On the contrary, he tells us this so that we would be reminded of who we naturally are and to lead us to the place where all of these treasures are sacrificed so that we might receive of the true riches of heaven thus freeing ourselves from all anxiety and worry.
