Living the Truth in a Divided World
Living the Truth in a Divided World
In today’s homily, Fr. David Gunter, MIC reflects on the powerful witness of St. Thomas More and St. John Fisher, reminding us that the sword of truth is the Word of God. To live in the truth, we must allow our minds and hearts to be guided by the Holy Spirit, who teaches us how to act with courage, clarity, and faithfulness to God’s will.
Proclaiming the truth may bring persecution, division, and difficult trials, but it also secures our path toward eternal life. Every trial allowed by God can become a lesson of purification and strength. The question for each of us is: What is this trial teaching me, and how is the Spirit calling me to stand firm in the truth?

St. Thomas More and St. John Fisher are names we recognize but do we fully understand what they did and how we are still doing what they stood against?
Two heroes of our Catholic faith and our Marian religious community, Blessed Anthony Leszczewicz and Blessed George Kaszyra, lived and died as witnesses to Christ's love, offering their lives for others in a time of profound darkness and war. Father Thaddaeus Lancton, MIC, shares their powerful witness in the face of unimaginable sacrifice. Then hear the story of Harmel Academy in Kent County, Michigan, a unique community of young Catholic men who combine spiritual formation with hands-on trades education.
