Daily MassThe homily reflects on the story of Elijah and the prophets of Baal, drawing a parallel to modern life. The priest shares a personal anecdote from his early priesthood where a sister advised him to "let God be God" when he was overly controlling during a retreat. He connects this to the idea that while we may not worship idols like Baal, our own egos and desire for control can become obstacles, preventing us from allowing God to work in our lives.

Daily MassThe homily reflects on the human innate desire to worship and the distinction between natural religions, where humans strive upwards to God, and Judaism/Christianity, where God reveals himself to humanity. Drawing from the story of Elijah on Mount Carmel, the homilist emphasizes that true worship involves sacrificing our ego and surrendering to the one true God, Yahweh, whose ultimate sacrifice is fulfilled in Christ and celebrated in the Eucharist.
