Episode 331: Their Eyes Were Opened

from Fr. David Hogan Hosted by David Hogan

Third Sunday in Easter Have you ever walked away from something thinking, "I didn't get anything out of that." Unfortunately, that is how many people experience Mass. "I go...but I do not feel anything." In our Gospel for today, the two disciples leaving Jerusalem felt the same way. They just witnessed the greatest event in history...and walked away empty. The problem is not the Mass. The problem is expecting feelings instead of recognizing reality. Therefore, come to Mass with one prayer: "Lord open my eyes..." Jesus is present at the Mass substantially, body, blood, soul, and divinity whether you feel it or not. Scripture Readings for April 19, 2026 Acts 2:14, 22-33 Psalm 16:1-2, 5, 7-11 1 Peter 1:17-21 Luke 24:13-35
