He added, ‘The homily should not be academic,’” Brenda says. “I thought that ‘academic’ meant ‘instructional.’ Am I wrong to think that it is fine for a homily to be teaching us something? I really appreciate it when the priest gives us background information such as common practices in biblical times. The more I can learn, the happier I am.” Busted Halo Show w/Fr.
