Homilies about moral action

Why Forming Your Conscience is Essential for a Good Life

The homily emphasizes the importance of forming a well-trained conscience to discern between good and evil, as requested by Solomon in the first reading. It highlights that while we have the capacity to reason and choose, original sin clouds our intellect and weakens our will, making us inclined to evil. The priest warns against the devil's attempts to make us ignore our conscience and stresses our responsibility to actively seek truth through God's word, Church teachings, good examples, and examination of conscience.
