Homily: Everything is a Gift: Thankful Stewardship of Time and Talent | Fr. Mathias Thelen

St. Patrick Catholic Parish Podcast

In this homily given on Sunday September 24th 2023, Fr Mathias talks about how gratitude for what God has given to us in Christ is the fundamental shape of our response to all he's done for us. As a result we are called to live as thankful stewards of what God is entrusting to us: our time, talent and treasure. Disciples of Christ are good stewards of God's gifts when they share them and invest them in this world. We do this not primarily because there will be an account of our stewardship when we die, but out of thanksgiving for all he's done for us. In this first homily of a two-part series Father breaks open how we can begin to understand our time and talent as gifts of God and how we can start stewarding them well.
