Fr. Stace discusses some of the social responsibilities we have as Christians. In our weakness, it is easier to do anything else than to have human interaction. Yet, the Christian community should look different. We are called to act on a micro-level in solidarity with each other. Ultimately, we are responsible for all.

Fr. Stace’s homily communicates the serious power of the tongue. Out of the abundance of the mouth, the heart speaks. With that, our job as Christians is to perceive the word of God: in prayerful silence; in blessing God and others rather than to curse; and in the cross. Visit fatherneo.com for more info!

We learn in Fr. Stace’s sermon about what makes our Christian Apostolic Community different from all other groups and organizations.

In Fr. Stace’s homily, he points out that power, authority, and glory are rendered differently in the spiritually sick and the spiritually healthy. He warns us not to be a tyrant and not to be ruled by tyrants. Rather, be a servant. But, whom or what will we serve? Ultimately, we must be yoked to our high priest, Jesus.

In his Epiphany sermon, Fr. Stace Tafoya compares the Magi and Herod in relation to their perception of Christ. The Magi are looking up for the King of the Jews, Herod is looking down for fear of losing his throne. We also find that specific parallels lie between the gifts of the Magi and the elements of Christ in how he relates to us as King. Visit fatherneo.com for more info!

In Fr. Stace’s Christmas Eve sermon, we learn how to watch, make haste, and ponder. Like the shepherds, who had the disposition to be available, we watch. Like Mary, in response to the Incarnation, we ought to ‘make haste.’  And still like Mary, in her contemplative response toward our Lord, we ponder. Also, follow along, as Fr. Stace unpacks what we see in Andrei Rublev’s Icon, attached here. It’s a wonderful example of contemplation on the Incarnation. Visit fatherneo.com for more info!

In his final Advent sermon, Fr. Stace shares how to honor and emulate Mary. As Mary did, we can ask ourselves: Does our faith give us a sense of urgency?  Are we willing to do whatever Jesus says? And are we willing to do His will, come what may? Visit fatherneo.com for more info!

In Fr. Stace’s Advent sermon, he reveals how necessary it is for us, as members of the Body of Christ, to prepare for the day of judgment. While we are here on this earth, we must be on guard and look up to our Lord, instead of crumbling into the cares and worries of the world. As written in Luke 21, now is the time to prepare as if the Day of Judgment were tomorrow. And we can put our trust in our Lord, who will make us right. Visit fatherneo.com for more info!
