    Thank you Fr Mike for this homily. I was removed from all m ministry work when a priest came to our parish who didn’t like my views on keeping the deposit of faith. Your teaching today encouraged me to keep speaking and not be silent.

    Thank you Father, for not sugar-coating anything. Thank you for opening our eyes and making us aware of our responsibility and of what is at stake. It's obvious you truly CARE about the salvation of those who listen to you.

    Fr. Mike, this was a tremendously impactful homily. I’m 64 and a life long Catholic and I’ve never heard this Gospel preached in that way. If only we had more spiritual leaders like you. Thank you so much.

    One of the best sermons that I have heard in a long time. Thank you, and may God bless you, Fr. Mike.

    I wish I had this homily three days ago, when I did precisely what Fr. Michael said : I got furious by the miserable state of my life and instead of taking proper action I let a couple of my inner demons (my anger and my jealousy) take control and accused God of having golden children and me not being one of them. I messed it up, again. If I end up in hell, it'll be well deserved, for being an ungrateful and lazy POS.
