What does Jesus mean when he says, “Woe to you?” | One-Minute Homily
Jesus’ “Woe to you…” statements come right after the beatitudes in the Gospel of Luke. Fr. Danny Gustafson, SJ, helps us to better understand these statements in this week’s One-Minute Homily.
Depart from me, Lord: Brokenness and Calling | One-Minute Homily

“Before I Formed You, I Knew You” | One-Minute Homily

Seeing the Baptism of the Lord in Every Baptism | One-Minute Homily
The Baptism of Jesus Christ was pretty spectacular. A dove descended from Heaven and the voice of God could be heard. Fr. Danny Gustafson, SJ, reflects on the ways that God is similarly present at every baptism.
The Epiphany of the Lord: Chasing Stars | One-Minute Homily
What leads you closer to God? Tucker Redding, SJ, reflects on the visit of the magi and how it shows us that God calls to each of us and in different ways.
