It could have been otherwise.
We have been created good by the good God. But we have been captured by sin, death, and slavery. In Jesus, God has rescued us and transferred us into His Kingdom, His family.

I just recently saw a utube video about Fr. Mike-and his life. The interviewer, asked him how long does it take to write a homily, and Fr. Mike said 9-20 hours! His homilies are like hearing God . Thank u!

Fr. Mike Origin Story

@katerinafar 10 месяцев назад

I feel sometimes I am nursed by the eucharist, not everytime, but sometimes when I am weak or tired. Then unexpected and strange thoughts come to my head :)), like I don't have to react to everything, I don't have to pretend to be smart when I'm not really sure what I'm talking about and I don't have to tell everyone about my trauma under all circumstances and there will be no harm :) in fact, I can stay completely silent and be ok.

Thank you very much Father Mike. I am doing RCIA right now, and your videos answered so many questions I had coming from a Protestant background. As a man, I salute to you for the sacrifice you make in order to be a priest. God bless.

@christinelivebird 10 месяцев назад

God bless you sir!! You are not only on the path to salvation but the church will teach you how to win the souls of all that you love. Because of your decision, many will be heaven that may not have been if you didn’t hear Jesus call. I know this because I have seen it. Use all the tools the church gives you and may God bless and guide your steps. I’m so happy for you. I will pray for you.

Such a wonderful message! I feel I was rescued from an abusive marriage. I am single, but am happy that God helped me. My life is so much better, alone, but with God, all things are possible. ❤️🙏🏼

@firstshallbelastuntilforev6782 10 месяцев назад

I thought the same when I saw Diego Velazquez's painting of the crucifixion for the first time, if you zoom in and look closely you can see a subtle smirk on Jesus's face and when I remembered the line from a song that goes; the secret of the Hanged Man, the smile on His lips that simply made me giggle. But ambush predator is something I would have never come up with. It's epic.

I have very dear friends of mine who when through a similar scenario at -1:46 I’m the video. I am a new Christian and I am in the RCIA program. My very dear friends are engaged and they lost their baby of 8 months on Friday due to late term complications from Turner syndrome. I prayed to Jesus more times than I can count for the salvation of this little one. Please pray for little Merida Kay, and for her parents and family❤

This homily was powerful. I am newly diagnosed with cancer. I believe that the opportunity to listen to Father Mike and this community throughout BIY in 2022 and CIY in 2023 was a gift to strengthen my faith for His will, whatever it may be.

Be a witness to share and live out the gospel. The good news we have a Savior Jesus Christ. To many knuckleheads in my community live in vanity, selfishness and pride. Exactly the opposite.

@mrss4328 10 месяцев назад

Wow. Do I need this perspective today and onward. Thank you God. I need to accept it and serve the LORD at the same time. Otherwise it means I don’t really trust God even though I know he says my ways are not your ways and my thoughts are not your thoughts.

What breaks your heart the most is not a tragedy that comes from evil sources, it's the evil that comes from once-trusted sources. Then again, maybe that's the definition of true tragedy.

Fr Mike Schmidtz, I have been watching and listening to you for years. You are an amazing person and priest and you inspire me each day. I lost my husband tragically on May 29, 2022. He had PTSD from Vietnam. He took his own life. I was in the next room. God helps me get through each day since then. My younger sister died in 1975 in car accident as well. But I am getting through with Jesus,s help. I live in Ct. I am 70. My wish is someday I will get to see you in person before my time on earth is done. Thank you again, Father. Kathy Tyler

In taken, it's worthy to note that the ex-wife is a nightmare and doesn't respect him like she should. It's a blessing that he's mostly rid of her. They blew it in the sequel, where I think they get back together Andy rescues her. He should have said good riddance. 😎 She's a nightmare.

Father Mike, I love your homilies, and I'm on Day 117 of BiY,. However there is just too much "remarkable." may I please offer you some synonyms for the word "remarkable" to spice things up? Variety is the spice of life. And it's remarkable how often you use the word, "remarkable." lol extraordinary exceptional amazing astonishing astounding marvelous wonderful sensational stunning incredible unbelievable miraculous phenomenal prodigious striking outstanding momentous
