How to Prepare for the Sunday Readings

About this sermon

Have you ever left Mass feeling like the homily just wasn't satisfactory? In this video, Father Mike Schmitz shows us how to always gain what we need from the Sunday readings, regardless of the quality of the homily. Father Mike also tells us not to be so hard on priests when they miss the mark, because their job is harder than it seems from the pew. Another great way to prepare for the Sunday readings is by watching Jeff Cavins' Encountering the Word videos posted every Wednesday on Ascension Presents.
