NOT MY PROBLEM - Catholic Homily

What’s the opposite of love? Most of us would probably say hate. But maybe there’s something quieter — and sometimes even more dangerous: “I don’t care.” “Not my responsibility.” “Not my problem.” In this homily for the 23rd Sunday in Ordinary Time, Fr. Jim Chern reflects on Jesus’ challenging teaching about confronting someone who has gone astray — and the difference between correcting someone because we want to win an argument and speaking because we don’t want to lose a brother or sister. Christian love isn’t simply being nice. It doesn’t mean fixing everybody, tolerating destructive behavior, or ignoring necessary boundaries. But it does mean refusing to become indifferent. Because Jesus never looks at another human being and says: “Lost cause.” The Cross is the ultimate opposite of indifference: God saying, You matter too much to Me for Me to abandon you. 🎧 NOT MY PROBLEM Homily for the 23rd Sunday in Ordinary Time Ezekiel 33:7–9 | Romans 13:8–10 | Matthew 18:15–20 Read the homily at HomilyOnTheSpot.com and follow Fr.
