Sermon of Father John A. Perricone for Low Sunday given on Sunday, April 7th, 2024 at Our Lady of Sorrows Church, Jersey City, New Jersey.
A New Idea of Lent has invaded the entire Church. A gauzy altruism has taken the place of a rigorous program of penance and prayer.
Our Faith is about swords, not hand-holding. Those swords are first directed at our sins, and then directed at the evils in the world and in our Church.
What is absent in enthusiasm is a humility before the example of the saints, who never prayed with external display or manic delirium but always with a calm and chastened manner.
