February 15, 2026 - Sixth Sunday in Ordinary Time

from Blessed Sacrament Parish Community Homilies · host Fr. Rob Howe

Fr. Jack Johnson opens with a humorous story about comedian W.C. Fields searching for "loopholes" in the Bible on his deathbed, using this as a springboard to explore how we all tend to look for easy ways out when it comes to following God's laws. Drawing from Jesus's Sermon on the Mount and the Beatitudes, Fr. Jack challenges listeners to move beyond mere rule-keeping to embrace the spirit of the law through holiness and action. He emphasizes that mature faith doesn't happen overnight—it requires time, effort, and the development of our spiritual gifts to help one another. This inspiring homily calls us to make right choices for the right reasons, respect life in all its stages, and love God, neighbor, and self without looking for shortcuts or excuses.

Prayer Time Heir Waves Prayer Time A podcast especially for our Prayer Time community NEWMORROW SESSIONS - A PodCast Series on the Future of Hospitality Mario C. Bauer, Florian Schneider, Axel Weber & Dr. Tillman Bardt The Newmorrow PodCast is more than a podcast — it's a platform for open dialog on the future of our business, a platform for those building what doesn’t exist yet. Here, we share and embrace our passion for the hospitality industry, but we won’t romanticize the journey. We ask the tough questions, confront uncomfortable truths, and prepare for a future that resists easy answers. We believe that the tougher and wilder times become, the more openly, honestly and humanely people need to talk to each other and act together. We believe, openness, togetherness, and truthfulness should also be cornerstones of a professional community to develop our utopian idea of „open source“. This is a space where visionaries don’t just imagine the future — they wrestle with the paradoxes that shape it: success vs. happiness, data vs. instinct, stability vs. reinvention. Join leaders, entrepreneurs, and thinkers as they share not what made them — but what’s actively shaping them, now and next. So tune in
