About this episode
Homily from the Seventeenth Sunday in Ordinary Time.
It is possible to use the gifts, use the opportunities...and lose your heart.
King Solomon asked God for an understanding heart, and he was blessed with incredible wisdom. So how did he end so poorly? He did remarkable things, but he failed to do the ordinary things.
