It’s Lent, and let’s get after it. The best thing we can do for this Lent is spiritually move from Andy Dwyer to Star-Lord. When he plays Andy Dwyer, Chris Pratt is a little bit on the overweight side, a little bit pudgy, and when he plays Star-Lord, he is very fit.
Chris Pratt, in an interview, said the way that he was able to get to the physique of Star-Lord, was not working out. It was his diet. And so this Lent, we are called to be able to consume what is good. And so often throughout the year, we look at things we shouldn’t be looking at. We eat things that we shouldn’t be eating. We let into our hearts things that should not be there. Can we consume what is good, virtuous, and true from the Lord? So let’s move from Andy Dwyer to Star-Lord, and spiritually get ripped.

Harold could not hear anything, so doctors placed a hearing aid in his ear, which is the reaction of Harold hearing sound for the first time. And this picture is so moving, but what we hear in the gospel for this Sunday is even more moving and more incredible. Jesus Christ takes a deaf man away from the crowd…

Ascension of the Lord
So, you know that part of the Mass where everyone has received communion, and then the priest sits down. Everyone in the church then follows the priest and sits down, and it’s like this great relief. It’s this great sigh. And what’s so awesome is that we feel this great relief because everything has been accomplished. Everything is finished. We get to be…

Easter
Five years ago, I had the insane opportunity to go to the Holy Land and do a pilgrimage. And in the Holy Land, I went to the Holy Sepulchre. In the Holy Sepulchre, there is the tomb where they laid the body of Jesus, and I went inside. Guys, you will not believe what I saw. I saw nothing. There was nothing. There was no one because Jesus Christ had risen from…
