Fr. Dom's Homs - Rejoice or Regret: A Catholic Man’s Lent Challenge from the 4th Sunday of Lent

Men, Lent’s halfway mark hits with Laetare Sunday, a rose-colored call to rejoice. In this homily, Fr. Dom unpacks its power to refuel your climb toward Easter. This is no fluffy talk; it’s a reality check for men to be more serious about God.  

Fr. Dom dives into the Prodigal Son, St. Paul’s push for reconciliation, and why humility and fear of the Lord unlock strength. He’s been the lost son—sin-bound until confession at 27 set him free. You can be, too. The challenge: hit confession this week. Don’t sulk like the older son—run home like the younger. Easter’s near, and reconciliation is your edge. Listen up and step up.
