If Heaven Isn't a Physical Place (yet) then Where are the Bodies of Jesus and Mary? | 07-28-26

About this sermon

Fr. Chris Alar, MIC | Homily Tuesday of the Seventeenth Week in Ordinary Time In this compelling homily, Fr. Chris Alar explores the Catholic understanding of the end times and the glorious hope of Christ's Second Coming. Learn why the Second Coming is not about fear, but about fulfillment; the final separation of good and evil, the resurrection of our glorified bodies, and our joyful reunion with loved ones in Christ. Fr. Alar explains that heaven is more than a place; it is a transformed reality beyond the limits of our earthly understanding. After His Resurrection, Jesus' glorified body was no longer bound by space and time. He could appear, disappear, and enter locked rooms while remaining fully human. Likewise, the Blessed Virgin Mary shares in this glorified existence. Discover the true meaning of St. Paul's words about believers "meeting the Lord in the air"; not as a secret rapture, but as the ancient royal welcome of a victorious King returning to establish His eternal kingdom. The culmination of God's plan is the New Jerusalem, where heaven and earth become one.
