In this homily, we explore the challenging words of Jesus from the Gospel of Luke, where He speaks about bringing division rather than peace. The message delves into the radical call of Jesus to follow Him, even when it means disrupting societal norms and facing opposition. Through vivid analogies and real-life examples, we are invited to embrace the transformative power of Christ’s teachings in our lives, families, and communities.
