In order to do so I will analyses two preeminent types of writings, The Encyclical letter, and The Mass Homily. Similarly, I will compare a priest’s use of language in their homily to The Holy Father Pope Francis’ language use. Next discussion point is the prior knowledge and criteria to understand the Catholic discourse and relate

Basil's Nine Homilies on the Creation of the Universe” on Thursday, April 20th. When I researched the Archbishop, I saw that he has been integral throughout the past couple of decades in scholarly efforts to unify different sects of Christianity through Scripture.

Homilies help people of all ages understand the Word/Message but mostly those who are children and adolescents are the main target audience

For the last two years I have partaken in Catholic Heart Work camp mission trips. During my second mission trip I was inspired by the homily of resident chaplain, Father Geoffrey Rose, which was formed around the idea that life is not about yourself, but it is about helping others. Father Geoff’s homily has influenced me to pursue a career and lifestyle that involves helping people who are less fortunate.

The relationships between servants and masters closely reflect the gender relationships in Shakespeare's The Taming of the Shrew. Lucentio and Tranio's relationship as master and servant is an ideal of the Renaissance era according to "An Homily on the State of Matrimony." Tranio risks taking the place of his master because of his love for him and Lucentio always treats him with kindness and respect, almost like an equal. Though they are not involved romantically, Lucentio and Tranio fulfill

in people to trusting in some of your acts. With religion, we have to trust in our morals and the church. We have to trust in what the church is teaching so hopefully that helps us on our journey to heaven. Trust is present through out the homily. In the homily, the writer talks about eternity.
