I Got Nothing to Offer

Homily from the Thirtieth Sunday in Ordinary Time.

Nothing to Offer. Nothing to Prove. Nothing to Hide.

When we stand before the gates of Heaven and we are asked why we should be let in...what is our answer? How would we approach Heaven? How do we approach God now? We might approach God with our resume, or as an audition, or with perfection...but we need to approach in a different way.
