05/31/26 Understanding...or Trust?

From Sunday Homilies with Fr. Mike Schmitz by Ascension

May 30, 2026 · 17 min

About this episode

Fr. Mike Schmitz discusses the nature of God as a mystery to be trusted rather than a problem to be solved, reflecting on the Holy Trinity.

Homily from the Solemnity of the Most Holy Trinity. God is not a problem to solve, but One to be trusted. The Holy Trinity is the term that we use to try and convey the Mystery of Who God ultimately is. But no definition will suffice. And no explanation could possibly capture God's fullness. God is simply beyond anything that we can conceive of or imagine...but He has revealed Himself and called us into relationship with Him. Even if we do not fully grasp Him. Mass Readings from May 31, 2026: Exodus 34:4b-6, 8-9 Daniel 3:52, 53, 54, 55, 562 Corinthians 13:11-13 John 3:16-18
