My First Homilies

Second Theology at the NAC means the beginning of Homily Pratica. I finally get the opportunity to try my hand at writing some homilies and delivering them to small groups for feedback. It's a great system, I think, and one that really sharpens a seminarians skills for the real deal. I find myself enjoying it rather well!

A few people, knowing that I've begun working on my homilies, have asked to see what I've written. I've decided to go one step further and put some of my favorites in the form of a podcast. I'm rather new at this, so I'm just slapping them together until I get the hang of the program that I'm using on my Mac. So, my apologies for any fuzzinesses in the recordings, or other amateurish mistakes.

Anyway, today I'm posting one of my first homilies (it's actually my fourth). It is for Thursday of the 29th Week in Ordinary Time - that's Thursday, October 21st, 2010. The gospel is from Luke 12: 49 - 53. Listen to it and tell me what you think.

Oh you can access this podcast on an RSS Reader. Here's my blog's feed url: http://aquinasfiles.blogspot.com/feeds/posts/default

Just type this in when you want to subscribe to an RSS feed, and you should be able to listen to it. It worked for me, anyway.

Enjoy!
