In “Thor: Ragnarok,” Bruce Banner and the Hulk, they are fighting against each other. They’re the same person, but they need to be integrated better. But then you see in the movie, “Endgame,” Bruce Banner and the Hulk are truly one. They are no longer fighting against each other. They are integrated well. Bruce Banner is the Hulk, and the Hulk is Bruce Banner. Today we celebrate the Transfiguration of the Lord, where Jesus Christ is 100% divine, 100% human.
His divinity doesn’t take away from His humanity. His humanity doesn’t take away from His divinity. Jesus Christ is perfectly integrated into His divinity and humanity. This is called the Hypostatic Union. Say that three times fast. On this day of the Transfiguration, Jesus Christ, the Lord of the universe, actually wants you to know Him. He wants to be known, and we can truly understand the Lord.

And as he lifted the host for consecration, blood began to drip from the host onto the altar. This was what is called a Eucharistic miracle, and many confirmed…

Stop Exposing Others to Shame
It is the fourth Sunday of Advent and the Gospel today is very beautiful. It talks about St. Joseph, since he was a righteous man, does not want to expose Mary to shame and I think that is an incredible witness for us because we can so easily expose others to shame. It is the holiday season. We are with family all the time. There’s a lot of…

Yes To God
So, very often in the Old Testament, this is what happens. A prophet speaks to a group of people, calling them to turn back to the Lord. And what does the group of people do? They say no! They reject God, and bad things happen. They dig a hole that they cannot get out of. But the fantastic thing about the first reading for this Sunday is that Jonah, a prophet, speaks to the people of Nineveh, calling them to repent and…
