Catholic IntelligenceUpdated 1 min read

Monsignor Khachik G. Kouyoumdjian delivered a homily on the Gospel of Mark 11:27-33, addressing the nature of authority and human pride.

During his reflection, Kouyoumdjian noted that the world is currently driven by a desire for power and thrones, which manifests through hatred, war, and pride. He urged listeners to consider their identity before the throne of God and to recognize their mortality.

Kouyoumdjian advised against seeking useless forms of authority. Instead, he encouraged people to seek what is eternal and true. He stated that if God grants someone authority, that person should maintain humility and act as a servant to carry out God's blessed will.
