How Long, O Lord? - Beachside Homilies with Fr. Ben Berinti

In this deeply honest and moving beachside homily, Father Ben Parenti gives voice to one of humanity’s oldest prayers: How long, O Lord? Drawing from the prophet Habakkuk, the Gospel of Luke, and personal moments of grief, anger, and witness to profound human suffering, he reframes faith not as something we accumulate, but as a way of seeing and living in the world. Jesus’ response is both surprising and hopeful—not more faith, but faith ignited. This episode invites listeners to stop measuring their faith and instead stir into flame the Spirit already dwelling within them, trusting that even mustard-seed faith can set a life—and a world—on fire with hope.
