Homilies about distraction

Finding God Amidst Modern Distractions: Lessons from Elijah

The homily connects the Old Testament story of Elijah and the prophets of Baal to the modern struggle against distractions, particularly technology and social media. The priest observes a rise in Eucharistic adoration alongside increased technological distractions, suggesting that the need for quiet prayer and focus on the 'one true God' is a remedy for the modern age's 'shortened fuse' and inability to reflect before acting.
