Homilies from the National Shrine

On the Feast of St. Alphonsus Liguori, Fr. Daniel Klimek reflected on the saint's witness as a priest, bishop, lawyer, Mariologist, and Doctor of the Church, emphasizing his commitment to Catholic moral teaching and fidelity to God's truth. He connected St. Alphonsus' legacy with the martyrdom of St. John the Baptist, who gave his life for courageously defending God's moral law by condemning an unlawful marriage.
Fr. Klimek warned that moral relativism and the manipulation of language create confusion that distances people from the truth of the Gospel. He encouraged priests and all Catholics to proclaim the truth with courage and charity, following the example of the martyrs who were willing to die rather than compromise God's law. His message was a call to remain faithful to Christ, defend the truth, and never compromise the beauty of the Catholic faith.
