Sunday Homilies From St. John The Baptist

The violence spread across the Middle East and other parts of the world, in the name of God, must be responded to by the only means to overcome it; Crucified Love! This is why Jesus rebukes Peter today because he is ready to fight, to return violence for violence in order to save Jesus. Jesus proposes the way of love. We Christians must respond to the brutality of the extremists and terrorists, the Cross of Jesus Christ, lifted high, the Love of Christ proclaimed!
