In today’s homily, Fr. Matt offers a sobering reminder: a nation cannot survive spiritually if its people abandon truth. As Catholics, we are called not only to believe the faith, but to study it, to guard it, and to allow it to shape our daily lives. The Church teaches that the Holy Spirit is the “Spirit of Truth” (John 14:17), and when we invite Him into our hearts, He strengthens us to love what is good, reject what is false, and persevere through every trial. This is why the Catechism says that life in Christ transforms the whole of our existence (CCC 1691).

Fr. Anthony reflects on the Magnificat, Mary’s prayer of praise and thanksgiving, to discover how her humility, faith, and trust in God reveal the heart of Divine Mercy—and how we, too, are called to give glory to God for the blessings in our lives.
