Twenty-Eighth Sunday in Ordinary Time. Father Dave discusses today's gospel in which the rich young man went away sad because he was too attached to his wealth. Father Dave points out that while we're not all rich, we all have attachments that keep us from the Kingdom of God. He encourages us to give everything over to God and put him first. Preached at Saint Paul the Apostle Church, New York City on 10-10-21

Memorial of Saint Pius of Pietrelcina, Priest. Father Dave discusses today's reading from the prophet Haggai in which God asks the people to slow down. He points out that the people in this reading were so busy that they were missing out on doing God's work. Father Dave encourages us to slow down and spend time with God in prayer in order to fulfill his plans for our lives. Preached at Saint Paul the Apostle Church, New York City on 9-23-21
