MOST RECENT SERMONS

A Catholic Profession of Faith View description ▼ Baptism, Faith, and the Church. These three major themes of Eastertide always go together and can’t be separated. God gives us Faith at Baptism through the Church.  To be saved one must believe the Faith preached by the Church and be baptized. There Is a great crisis in the Church today because these three are being separated, especially by members of the hierarchy. He that believeth not shall be condemned. Doctrinal errors rampant today are exposed by a ‘Declaration of Catholic Faith’ recently published by a group of traditional Catholics. Women, look to the example of the Church to see what it means to be a good holy Catholic mother. May 17, 2026 by Fr. Michael Rodríguez
Adoro Te Devote View description ▼ The Church presents us with three great Easter themes — Faith, Baptism, Holy Eucharist — and three great Easter professions of Faith. It is very easy to deceive ourselves regarding religion and faith. Anyone who considers himself ‘good’ but does not strive to keep the Faith deceives himself and his faith is in vain. We must be on guard to keep ourselves unspotted from the world, for the world inevitably takes us away from the Faith. A man of faith seeks to grow in faith and act by faith. May 10, 2026 by Fr. Michael Rodríguez
St Paul the Hermit and Detachment View description ▼ Paul’s parents died and his brother-in-law defrauded him. He retreated into the desert. In the silence of a cave he saw clearly the vanities of this world. Paul lived a life of simplicity and peace, supported only by the providence of God. Many years later his solitude was discovered by St. Anthony, who witnessed his miraculous death. Every disciple must detach from the deceit and dangers of the world to follow Christ. Yet living with Christ is eternal life — beginning here and now. May the example of the saints be a constant help and encouragement to us. January 15, 2026 by Fr. Linus Clovis
How Should One Respond to an Unjust Excommunication View description ▼ On 2 July 2026, the Vatican issued documents claiming the SSPX was schismatic and excommunicated. Media news outlets have been weaponized to quickly spread this propaganda. So how should faithful Catholics respond? Hold fast to the truth that Christ reveals. Exercise charity. Remain at peace. Live a faithful Catholic life. This is the witness which all men, especially other Catholics, need to see.

FLASHBACK: SERMONS

Ambassadors in the Embassy of Christ View description ▼ Consider the image of an embassy to represent the Church. We are ambassadors for Christ the King. Yet for many centuries now we have been losing ground and raising the white flag of surrender: to Galileo and geocentrism, to Darwin and evolutionism, to Spinoza and rationalistic interpretations of the Scriptures, to ecumenical ecclesiologies, and even to jettisoning our liturgical patrimony. Now it seems the Church will abandon even the most basic morals enshrined in Natural Law. Let us pray to the Holy Ghost that we may once again truly be a Church Militant.
Heresy of Neo-Marcionism View description ▼ Marcion of Sinope (d. 160) promoted a heresy that the "God of the OT" was different from the "God of the NT." He argued that the wrathful OT God must be separate from the all-forgiving, all merciful God of the NT. Thus, for Marcion there was a certain opposition of the God of past times with the God of present times. Marcionism has resurfaced in our day as various efforts have been made to explain away the“harsh and disciplinarian" ways of the "Church of old" with the more "lenient, merciful and accepting ways" of the "Church in our modern times." God the Holy Ghost, the soul of the Church, reveals the lie behind such heretical thinking. We cannot truthfully say that a doctrine no longer has to be believed or practiced, or that disciplines approved and practiced for centuries are now wrong. What the previous Catholic generations held as sacred, must remain sacred and great for us too. (Read text of sermon.)
True Catholic Moral Teaching View description ▼ The six magnificent works of the Holy Ghost are: [1] Beauty, order and harmony of nature. [2] The Blessed Virgin Mary. [3] The Incarnation of the Son of God. [4] The Holy Catholic Church. [5] The salvation and sanctification of souls. [6] The glorification of the elect in Heaven. Knowing these helps us discern between what comes from God and what comes from the spirit of the world, the flesh, and the devil. Father provides Jesus Christ and His Church's true teaching on natural law and homosexuality, despite what any human authorities in the Church say. This sermon took place two days before Fr. Rodríguez spoke at the El Paso City Council, and act which received national attention.
