Homilies must challenge, says new Vatican document

The Vatican says the homily is a discourse on the mysteries of faith, Scripture readings and the standards of Christian life, in a new document released Feb. 10.

VATICAN CITY - A homily at Mass is not a mini catechism class, the Vatican says in a new document on homilies, but it is an opportunity to explain Church teaching using the Scripture readings and the Catechism of the Catholic Church.
