In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost. Amen.
This powerful homily reflects on the Feast of Christ the King, instituted by Pope Pius XI in 1925 amid the turmoil between the two World Wars. It reminds us that true peace and justice can only be achieved when Christ reigns as King in our hearts, homes, and nations.
Father reflects on how Christ’s kingship is not of this world but in this world — calling civil powers and individuals alike to return to Christian principles. The homily also examines the Protestant Reformation, secularization, and the importance of recognizing the social kingship of Christ in today’s pluralistic world.
🙏 Join us in honoring Christ the King — the ruler of hearts, families, and nations — whose dominion alone can repel the forces of evil and bring harmony and justice to our world.
