あらすじ・解説
On Sunday October 13th, 2024 Fr Mathias preaches part one of four-part homily series on the Lay Commitment to the Common Good. This series is geared to help Catholics think critically about their responsibility to promote the common good through voting.
In this first homily, Fr Mathias identifies various temptations that Christians face when approaching politics and five points that we should remember when voting as Catholics this fall.
1) We are to vote with a well-formed conscience
2) When voting, not all issues carry the same moral weight
3) It's legitimate to vote for the "lesser of two evils"
4) Love those who disagree with you
5) Remember that the real source of our problems in our country is sin in the human heart that only Jesus can save us from.
Each of the following homilies in the series are about non-negotiable issues which are at the foundation of the common good.
