00:00 Intro00:20 Gospel01:37 HomilySome Pharisees and scribes came to Jesus from Jerusalem and said,“Why do your disciples break the tradition of the elders?They do not wash their hands when they eat a meal.”He summoned the crowd and said to them, “Hear and understand.It is not what enters one’s mouth that defiles the man;but what comes out of the mouth is what defiles one.”Then his disciples approached and said to him,“Do you know that the Pharisees took offensewhen they heard what you said?”He said in reply, “Every plant that my heavenly Father has not plantedwill be uprooted.Let them alone; they are blind guides of the blind.If a blind man leads a blind man,both will fall into a pit.”Matthew 15 1-2, 10-14https://bible.usccb.org/bible/readings/080426.cfmSpiritual Exercises - A Silent Retreathttps://spiritualexercises.online/what-are-the-spiritual-exercises/How To Examine Your Soul?https://youtu.be/dGe1JkqoDiY?si=mmnJX09zckv4KeYALearn more about the Institute of the Incarnate Wordhttps://iveamerica.org/Looking for Catholic articles to read?https://iveamerica.org/blog/Are you in the United States, Canada, Mexico, and Suriname?https://www.youtube.com/@IVEAmerica
