So it’s about time we talked about Quidditch, which is obviously a real sport. After consulting many experts, the reality is that the most important position is not the seeker, the keeper, or the chasers; the two beaters on the field are protecting the rest of the team, enabling everyone to feel safe. If this makes no sense, stay with me.
In the second reading for this Sunday, Saint Paul says, “If God is for us, who can be against us?” The Father in heaven is our protector. He never promised that we wouldn’t suffer, but he promised that he would be with us. Even amid our suffering, we can feel safe because God is for us. We live in fear because we don’t truly feel secure, but with the Father, Who is all-knowing, all-loving, and all-powerful, He is for you. This is the greatest gift we can ever be given—safety in the Father’s arms.

The Most Hipster Thing
Okay, let’s talk about hipsters. We all know them. They are everywhere. And the crazy thing about hipsters is that they all look the same. Have you ever noticed that? St. John the Baptist was the OG hipster. He ate organic, farm-to-table locusts and honey every day. He wore vintage clothing. St. John the Baptist even…

This Is Our Battle Cry
This Sunday’s gospel is a battle cry that we are called to go into battle. Jesus says, “You are the salt of the earth.” In the ancient world, when a city was conquered, the soldiers would lay out salt everywhere, on the ground, in the streets, to destroy anything growing there. It sounds weird, but we are called as Christians to eliminate…
