In this homily given on Sunday February 11th, 2024 Fr Mathias challenges us to imitate Jesus' posture toward those caught in the leprosy of sin: to hate the sin but love the sinner. After naming the two extremes of emphasizing one over the other, Father offers one tip on how to live in the difficult tension: remembering that we are a community of missionary disciples who are called outward in order to love sinners and heal them of their leprosy of sin by bringing them to Christ.
