Podcast:Sunday Homilies with Fr. Mike Schmitz Published On: Fri Dec 25 2020 Description: Homily from the Mass of the Nativity of the Lord (Christmas). Why is He there? We have become more comfortable with the "completed" past than the unknown future. Rather than desiring to launch into the challenge of the future, many of us have become paralyzed by fear of the future. When we are rooted in the Word of God each day, we become more rooted in God Himself each day. When we are rooted in the Lord, there is no room for fear of the future. Mass Readings from December 25, 2020: Isaiah 52:7-10 Psalm 98:1-6Hebrews 1:1-6 John 1:1-18
