    What makes someone a true disciple of Jesus? In this homily, Fr. Rob explores Jesus' challenge to the religious leaders who appeared faithful on the outside but struggled to live out God's love in their daily lives. Drawing a modern comparison, he contrasts outward religious practice with a life marked by mercy, generosity, and service to others. Fr. Rob reminds us that faith is meant to be more than attendance, routines, or appearances. While prayer, worship, and participation in the sacramenta

    Why do we so often tell ourselves, “I’ll start tomorrow”? In this reflection, Fr. Rob explores Jesus’ parable of the workers in the vineyard and the challenge it presents to our sense of fairness. Most of us naturally identify with the workers who labored all day and wonder why everyone received the same reward. But Jesus invites us to see ourselves differently. Fr. Rob explains that, more often than not, we are the workers who arrive late, the ones who have delayed making changes, postponed act

    What does true forgiveness look like? In this homily, Fr. Rob examines Peter's question about how often we must forgive and the surprising answer Jesus gives in return. Believing he is being extraordinarily generous, Peter suggests forgiving seven times, only to discover that God's mercy extends far beyond human calculations. Fr. Rob explores how this Gospel reveals the heart of Christian stewardship: recognizing that everything we have, including mercy, compassion, and love, is a gift from God.

    What does God's patience look like, and how does it compare to our own? In this reflection, Fr. Rob contrasts Christ's infinite patience with our often limited ability to understand and accept others. Drawing from the Gospel and St. Paul's Letter to the Romans, he explores how Jesus teaches us to navigate disagreements with humility, compassion, and genuine love. Even when conflicts remain unresolved, Christians are still called to love others as God loves them. Fr. Rob reminds us that loving ou

    In this reflection, Fr. Rob shares a personal story from his school days to illustrate an important lesson from the life of St. Peter. In one Gospel passage, Peter boldly proclaims Jesus as the Son of God and is praised for the faith revealed to him by the Father. Yet shortly afterward, Peter misunderstands Jesus' mission and receives a sharp rebuke: “Get behind me, Satan.” Through these contrasting moments, Fr. Rob reminds us that faith is a gift of grace, not a sign of our own superiority or w
