04/19/26 The Next...: The Next Mass

About this episode

Fr. Mike Schmitz discusses the struggle of faith and the importance of courage in the context of the Resurrection during the Third Sunday of Easter.

Homily from the Third Sunday of Easter. The Enemy wants to steal your heart. The Lord wants to give you His. It is possible to know the truth; the truth about the Resurrection, the truth about Christianity, the truth about Jesus...and still struggle. It is possible to know and wrestle to have the courage it requires to continue on. Courage is necessary. Heart is necessary...especially in the battle of discouragement. Mass Readings from April 19, 2026: Acts 2:14, 22-33 Psalm 16:1-2, 5, 7-111 Peter 1:17-21 Luke 24:13-35
