Homilies about corruption

Bishop Strickland: How Societies Fall When They Reject Christ the King

Bishop Strickland

Bishop Strickland's address argues that the current global darkness and corruption, particularly the exploitation of the innocent, stem from a societal rejection of God's authority and Christ's kingship. He traces this pattern through history, from ancient Rome to modern totalitarian regimes and even within the Church, emphasizing that when societies prioritize power, wealth, and desire over divine law, moral foundations crack. The homily calls for repentance and a return to Christ's kingship as the only path to salvation and protection of the innocent.
