Homilies about good works

Bearing Good Fruit: Living the Kingdom of Heaven on Earth

Father Mike

This homily focuses on the parables of Jesus, particularly the parable of the weeds and the wheat, emphasizing the importance of bearing good fruit through good works, mercy, peace, and justice. It highlights that the Kingdom of Heaven is not an earthly kingdom but a spiritual one, and while God allows both good and evil to coexist (showing mercy), individuals have free will to choose good. The homily concludes by reminding listeners that the Kingdom of Heaven grows in mysterious ways, and our role is to do our part in manifesting its values.
