Glory to you, O Lord. On the evening of that first day of the week, when the doors were locked where the disciples were, Jesus came and stood in their midst and said to them, Peace be with you. When he had said this, he showed them his hands and his side. The disciples rejoiced when they saw the Lord. Jesus said to them again, Peace, I'll be with you. As the Father has sent me, so I send you. And when he had said this, he breathed on them and said to them, Receive the Holy Spirit, whose sins you forgive are forgiven them, and whose sins you retain are retained. The Gospel of the Lord. Praise to you, Lord Jesus. So during the season of Easter, this gospel kind of serves as a bookend. You know, the second, the right way, we have the Easter readings, and then the very next week we get this reading. This is the reading for the second week of Easter. It goes on, it continues into the Doubting Thomas story. But it starts with this. It's called Little Pentecost. It is where Jesus breathes on them the Holy Spirit. Now, when we celebrate the Feast of Pentecost, we're celebrating this much bigger dispersion, and of course, also this promise that the Spirit is going to cover the face of the earth. That first one is, it kind of cuts its own feet out from under it. The whole point of going to the Spirit is, instead of just a few people getting to know Jesus, everyone gets to know the Spirit. Well, in that first one, he only breathes it on the same people who already knew him. So it's sort of the transitional Pentecost, getting ready for this larger moment where the Spirit is going to be coming upon us in a widespread sense. What Luke has done, as Luke and Matthew do throughout their Gospels, is they want to write these in such ways that they untangle and kind of get rid of certain Old Testament stories and dynamics. So, you know, the fall of sin becomes redemption and all of these sorts of things. This is the overturning of the Tower of Babel. In the Tower of Babel, you've got a bunch of people whose arrogance makes them decide, we've got God figured out. We're going to build a tower to heaven and get there ourselves. Who needs God when men can build towers? So, they build their tower. They start together and it takes them about five minutes until all of a sudden, shockingly, a bunch of people who think they know God can't understand each other. The minute we know everything, we're talking too much and listening too little and no one understands everyone. Now, the mythology of it is God comes down and touches their tongues and all of the languages are created. Now, that is clearly a very mythologically laden story. No one thinks that that's how languages came about. Every linguist's head in the world blew up. You know, obviously, one angel with a lot of accents got Italian, Spanish, and French all at the same time. So, we know that that's not right. But the actual story is people came together for a project because they understood each other. But because it was, we're going to be the ones that do this without any recognition, that God gets us to heaven, that others help us to create all these things. You can see it was a whole, you know, as we used to say, it was all chiefs. Everyone in it was probably, they could not understand each other. Well, they stopped trying. And so, you fast forward to Luke's telling of the Pentecost story. This is not people raising up to God. This is God coming down to people, both in the incarnation of Jesus, you know, and now the spirit of God comes down to us. God reaches down to us. You and I will never get to heaven on our own merits. And when we think we do, we start splintering the church into a million factions. Because if I'm getting to heaven on my own, it puts me in a much better position to decide virtually or wrong. If I'm getting to heaven as pure gift, it becomes a little harder for me to say, you know, this is a pure gift from God. You just don't get one. God just likes me more. You should say personally, just us a few. I think of all the things in the world, you should say personally, it's someone not liking, you know. What do they not like about me? Just you. In general, you know. So, at Pentecost, God comes down to us. And what happens? People who couldn't understand one another now can. You know, they undo that dynamic of the Tower of Babel. When you and I decide we're going to get ourselves to God, we will create misunderstanding where there used to be understanding. When we start to understand that God comes to us as a gift, and that we didn't deserve it, and we don't earn it, all of a sudden, you know, all of a sudden, when we weren't understanding people, we can. Because it puts us in a place of great humility. Even the Eucharistic prayers, I'm not wild about the new translations that came out 10 years ago. Eventually, I'll have to stop saying new, but not that. When those translations came out that last night, you know, that we may merit to be co-heirs. Well, the problem is, the beginning of the sentence happened, I think, about 40 minutes earlier in that prayer. And you forget that it's saying, because Jesus does this, and Jesus does this, we will merit it. It's not that you and I earned it on our own. How do we get into heaven? What do we need to do to get into heaven? That's how we got into heaven. The cross. You and I didn't do it. And as much as we hate to think of ourselves as charity cases, it's the only way in nowadays. So welcome to the charity case club. Another fascinating thing about the way Luke tells his story, he's really brilliant in it, in this, in Acts. He tells us that even though, you know, it's that same, he wants to tie it to the Tower of Babel, so he does say, oh, you know, the Spirit touches their tongues, he words it exactly like the Tower of Babel. But then, no one says, they're speaking our language. It's not the experience of anyone in the whole place. At the Tower of Babel, everyone's talking in new languages and no one can understand because everyone's talking in new languages. This one, the miracle is not the tongues, it's the ears. This one, it says, how is it we're hearing that in our own language? How is it we're... So I don't want you to think that someone who's touched with the Spirit speaks and like 50 languages come out at once. How is it we're hearing what they say in our language? Well, it's amazing how much understanding can happen if we're interested. I mean, kid, there are people who speak English in America who can actually understand people from Glasgow. If they'll lean in and listen. You know, at what point is it not the same language? No. Sometimes the difference between Colorado and Glasgow is not nearly as large as the difference between New York and Texas. And that's just an accent. What does it mean to understand? It means to be willing to lean in and understand. The Tower of Babel is a bunch of people who have decided they know what to say and Pentecost is a bunch of people who have learned how to listen. So one sort of nurtures understanding and the other nurtures confusion. So we're caught on this journey always as community. We're caught between Babel and Pentecost. We're caught in that dynamic that says, how do we lean in and listen a little more? Because the minute we do it with someone, our ability changes completely. You know, we have a lot of times I hear people say, I just thought I had an accent. You know, they're at a church where someone's from another country. They have an accent and I just can't understand them. What's fascinating is I know many of the, it depends on the priest. Some of them are very gifted with languages and some are not. That's not necessarily the requisite of being a priest. But what I do notice is, if they work at relating with the people and if they build relationships, if their accent doesn't improve one bit in four years, people start to understand. Well, they get used to the way he talks. Why? Because they're interested enough and it happens the other way around. There are priests who come in and say, I'm sorry, I just don't understand. And I have to say, but you're from Colorado and so are they. No, I mean, but it can be that. Well, I just don't understand. I just don't. And it's always them. I don't understand them. Yes, you don't understand. We have to be a people who work to be open to the Pentecost spirit or we will inevitably fall into the tower of battle. We will become a people who cannot understand each other because it's all about expressing myself and not really hearing. There used to be a technique. I'm sure they still use it, but it was kind of new and shiny in the 80s and 90s in psychodynamic theory and especially in what was called Valon systemic family therapy, which is what I studied. And they would always have you say, now remember in communication, when a couple is talking in a couple's counseling or in family counseling, before someone responds to something, you make them say, wait, wait, before you respond, what did they just say? You make them repeat in their own words what the other person just said. And until they get used to the irritating question that you're going to ask each time, they'll tell you exactly what of the first half of what someone said. They only heard the first half. Why? Because they spent the rest of the time formulating their response. And the minute we're formulating our response, we're no longer listening. We actually have to, you know, but I'm going to forget. I'm going to forget what they said that I wanted to respond to. Forgetting your response is not nearly as important as hearing everything they had to say before my mouth just flies open and all sorts of stuff comes out. You know, to learn to say, okay, listen to everything. I grew up in a family. I used to tell people I grew up in a family all of us, and I still struggle with it. We all have a horrible, horrible habit of interrupting each other. I mean, six boys, who could have seen that coming? You know, but we all cut each other off before we're done with a thought. And I used to tell people, oh, my gosh. We just, we interrupt. We just interrupt, and that's not the problem. We don't listen. That's the problem. We interrupt. Before you ever interrupt someone, you've decided to stop listening. And head-to-cost is, how do we open our ears before we open our mouth? No. I remember, that was one of my mother's favorite sayings, and I don't want to shock the new generation, but my mother, once in a great while, as wonderful as we were, may have resorted to backhanding us, now's the case. And of all the things they did, that didn't ruin me, the other things did. But the thing I'll remember, I think I got, she said, I've told you a hundred times, it is always more important, you always open your ears first, always. And I said, even when eating? I was a delightful child. So, you know, but there's that sense where we have to start to say, how interested are we in one another? I remember at my last parish, I can't remember what we were talking about, but I said, you know, a lot of people in a parish don't know each other. A lot of people will say, you know, I go there and I know no one, I haven't met anyone yet. And the answer that is appropriate to give, if you can find a nice way to say it, is as soon as you're interested, you will. As soon as everybody else is interested enough in me, I can belong. No, no. You have to be interested enough in them. And you'll get to know people. And so we have all these anxieties about going out and getting to know people, because we're so worried about how we're going to be received. And the spirit comes down and says, the trick is, start receiving them and forget about how you're going to be received. That's their job. You be open to receiving who they are. And a bunch of individuals will become a community. And when they really deeply open themselves to the spirit, a community starts to become the church. We're called to try harder to move from that power of babble and open our ears more to one another. And I'm finding more and more, I thought it would happen the other way around. I always thought, as soon as I found inspiration, it turns out that if we open our ears first, often it is the heart that will fall.", "segments": [{"id": 0, "seek": 0, "start": 0.0, "end": 2.0,

00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:02.000
The Lord be with you.

00:00:02.000 --> 00:00:04.000
And with your spirit.

00:00:04.000 --> 00:00:06.000
A reading from the Holy Gospel according to John.

00:00:06.000 --> 00:00:08.000
Glory to you, O Lord.

00:00:11.000 --> 00:00:13.000
On the evening of that first day of the week,

00:00:13.000 --> 00:00:15.000
when the doors were locked where the disciples were,

00:00:15.000 --> 00:00:18.000
Jesus came and stood in their midst and said to them,

00:00:18.000 --> 00:00:20.000
Peace be with you.

00:00:20.000 --> 00:00:24.000
When he had said this, he showed them his hands and his side.

00:00:24.000 --> 00:00:27.000
The disciples rejoiced when they saw the Lord.

00:00:27.000 --> 00:00:31.000
Jesus said to them again, Peace, I'll be with you.

00:00:31.000 --> 00:00:35.000
As the Father has sent me, so I send you.

00:00:35.000 --> 00:00:38.000
And when he had said this, he breathed on them and said to them,

00:00:38.000 --> 00:00:40.000
Receive the Holy Spirit,

00:00:40.000 --> 00:00:43.000
whose sins you forgive are forgiven them,

00:00:43.000 --> 00:00:46.000
and whose sins you retain are retained.

00:00:47.000 --> 00:00:49.000
The Gospel of the Lord.

00:00:49.000 --> 00:00:52.000
Praise to you, Lord Jesus.

00:00:57.000 --> 00:01:03.000
So during the season of Easter, this gospel kind of serves as a bookend.

00:01:03.000 --> 00:01:06.000
You know, the second, the right way, we have the Easter readings,

00:01:06.000 --> 00:01:08.000
and then the very next week we get this reading.

00:01:08.000 --> 00:01:12.000
This is the reading for the second week of Easter.

00:01:12.000 --> 00:01:16.000
It goes on, it continues into the Doubting Thomas story.

00:01:16.000 --> 00:01:18.000
But it starts with this.

00:01:18.000 --> 00:01:20.000
It's called Little Pentecost.

00:01:20.000 --> 00:01:26.000
It is where Jesus breathes on them the Holy Spirit.

00:01:26.000 --> 00:01:28.000
Now, when we celebrate the Feast of Pentecost,

00:01:28.000 --> 00:01:31.000
we're celebrating this much bigger dispersion,

00:01:31.000 --> 00:01:34.000
and of course, also this promise that the Spirit

00:01:34.000 --> 00:01:37.000
is going to cover the face of the earth.

00:01:37.000 --> 00:01:43.000
That first one is, it kind of cuts its own feet out from under it.

00:01:43.000 --> 00:01:46.000
The whole point of going to the Spirit is,

00:01:46.000 --> 00:01:49.000
instead of just a few people getting to know Jesus,

00:01:49.000 --> 00:01:51.000
everyone gets to know the Spirit.

00:01:51.000 --> 00:01:54.000
Well, in that first one, he only breathes it on the same people who already knew him.

00:01:54.000 --> 00:01:57.000
So it's sort of the transitional Pentecost,

00:01:57.000 --> 00:02:00.000
getting ready for this larger moment

00:02:00.000 --> 00:02:07.000
where the Spirit is going to be coming upon us in a widespread sense.

00:02:07.000 --> 00:02:13.000
What Luke has done, as Luke and Matthew do throughout their Gospels,

00:02:13.000 --> 00:02:17.000
is they want to write these in such ways

00:02:17.000 --> 00:02:21.000
that they untangle and kind of get rid of

00:02:21.000 --> 00:02:25.000
certain Old Testament stories and dynamics.

00:02:25.000 --> 00:02:28.000
So, you know, the fall of sin becomes redemption

00:02:28.000 --> 00:02:30.000
and all of these sorts of things.

00:02:30.000 --> 00:02:34.000
This is the overturning of the Tower of Babel.

00:02:34.000 --> 00:02:37.000
In the Tower of Babel, you've got a bunch of people

00:02:37.000 --> 00:02:39.000
whose arrogance makes them decide,

00:02:39.000 --> 00:02:41.000
we've got God figured out.

00:02:41.000 --> 00:02:44.000
We're going to build a tower to heaven and get there ourselves.

00:02:44.000 --> 00:02:48.000
Who needs God when men can build towers?

00:02:48.000 --> 00:02:51.000
So, they build their tower.

00:02:51.000 --> 00:02:54.000
They start together and it takes them about five minutes

00:02:54.000 --> 00:02:56.000
until all of a sudden, shockingly,

00:02:56.000 --> 00:02:58.000
a bunch of people who think they know God

00:02:58.000 --> 00:03:01.000
can't understand each other.

00:03:01.000 --> 00:03:03.000
The minute we know everything,

00:03:03.000 --> 00:03:06.000
we're talking too much and listening too little

00:03:06.000 --> 00:03:08.000
and no one understands everyone.

00:03:08.000 --> 00:03:12.000
Now, the mythology of it is God comes down and touches their tongues

00:03:12.000 --> 00:03:15.000
and all of the languages are created.

00:03:15.000 --> 00:03:20.000
Now, that is clearly a very mythologically laden story.

00:03:20.000 --> 00:03:24.000
No one thinks that that's how languages came about.

00:03:24.000 --> 00:03:28.000
Every linguist's head in the world blew up.

00:03:28.000 --> 00:03:31.000
You know, obviously, one angel with a lot of accents

00:03:31.000 --> 00:03:35.000
got Italian, Spanish, and French all at the same time.

00:03:35.000 --> 00:03:37.000
So, we know that that's not right.

00:03:37.000 --> 00:03:42.000
But the actual story is people came together for a project

00:03:42.000 --> 00:03:45.000
because they understood each other.

00:03:45.000 --> 00:03:48.000
But because it was, we're going to be the ones that do this

00:03:48.000 --> 00:03:52.000
without any recognition, that God gets us to heaven,

00:03:52.000 --> 00:03:55.000
that others help us to create all these things.

00:03:55.000 --> 00:03:58.000
You can see it was a whole, you know, as we used to say,

00:03:58.000 --> 00:04:01.000
it was all chiefs.

00:04:01.000 --> 00:04:03.000
Everyone in it was probably,

00:04:03.000 --> 00:04:05.000
they could not understand each other.

00:04:05.000 --> 00:04:09.000
Well, they stopped trying.

00:04:09.000 --> 00:04:14.000
And so, you fast forward to Luke's telling of the Pentecost story.

00:04:14.000 --> 00:04:17.000
This is not people raising up to God.

00:04:17.000 --> 00:04:20.000
This is God coming down to people,

00:04:20.000 --> 00:04:24.000
both in the incarnation of Jesus, you know,

00:04:24.000 --> 00:04:28.000
and now the spirit of God comes down to us.

00:04:28.000 --> 00:04:31.000
God reaches down to us.

00:04:31.000 --> 00:04:35.000
You and I will never get to heaven on our own merits.

00:04:35.000 --> 00:04:37.000
And when we think we do,

00:04:37.000 --> 00:04:42.000
we start splintering the church into a million factions.

00:04:42.000 --> 00:04:45.000
Because if I'm getting to heaven on my own,

00:04:45.000 --> 00:04:49.000
it puts me in a much better position to decide virtually or wrong.

00:04:49.000 --> 00:04:53.000
If I'm getting to heaven as pure gift,

00:04:53.000 --> 00:04:56.000
it becomes a little harder for me to say,

00:04:56.000 --> 00:04:59.000
you know, this is a pure gift from God.

00:04:59.000 --> 00:05:02.000
You just don't get one.

00:05:02.000 --> 00:05:04.000
God just likes me more.

00:05:04.000 --> 00:05:07.000
You should say personally,

00:05:07.000 --> 00:05:09.000
just us a few.

00:05:09.000 --> 00:05:11.000
I think of all the things in the world,

00:05:11.000 --> 00:05:14.000
you should say personally, it's someone not liking, you know.

00:05:14.000 --> 00:05:16.000
What do they not like about me?

00:05:16.000 --> 00:05:18.000
Just you.

00:05:18.000 --> 00:05:20.000
In general, you know.

00:05:20.000 --> 00:05:23.000
So, at Pentecost, God comes down to us.

00:05:23.000 --> 00:05:25.000
And what happens?

00:05:25.000 --> 00:05:30.000
People who couldn't understand one another now can.

00:05:31.000 --> 00:05:35.000
You know, they undo that dynamic of the Tower of Babel.

00:05:35.000 --> 00:05:38.000
When you and I decide we're going to get ourselves to God,

00:05:38.000 --> 00:05:42.000
we will create misunderstanding where there used to be understanding.

00:05:42.000 --> 00:05:46.000
When we start to understand that God comes to us as a gift,

00:05:46.000 --> 00:05:49.000
and that we didn't deserve it, and we don't earn it,

00:05:49.000 --> 00:05:54.000
all of a sudden, you know, all of a sudden,

00:05:54.000 --> 00:05:57.000
when we weren't understanding people, we can.

00:05:57.000 --> 00:05:59.000
Because it puts us in a place of great humility.

00:05:59.000 --> 00:06:01.000
Even the Eucharistic prayers,

00:06:01.000 --> 00:06:04.000
I'm not wild about the new translations that came out 10 years ago.

00:06:04.000 --> 00:06:07.000
Eventually, I'll have to stop saying new, but not that.

00:06:07.000 --> 00:06:11.000
When those translations came out that last night,

00:06:11.000 --> 00:06:14.000
you know, that we may merit to be co-heirs.

00:06:14.000 --> 00:06:17.000
Well, the problem is, the beginning of the sentence

00:06:17.000 --> 00:06:21.000
happened, I think, about 40 minutes earlier in that prayer.

00:06:21.000 --> 00:06:23.000
And you forget that it's saying,

00:06:23.000 --> 00:06:27.000
because Jesus does this, and Jesus does this, we will merit it.

00:06:27.000 --> 00:06:31.000
It's not that you and I earned it on our own.

00:06:31.000 --> 00:06:32.000
How do we get into heaven?

00:06:32.000 --> 00:06:34.000
What do we need to do to get into heaven?

00:06:34.000 --> 00:06:37.000
That's how we got into heaven.

00:06:37.000 --> 00:06:38.000
The cross.

00:06:38.000 --> 00:06:40.000
You and I didn't do it.

00:06:40.000 --> 00:06:44.000
And as much as we hate to think of ourselves as charity cases,

00:06:44.000 --> 00:06:48.000
it's the only way in nowadays.

00:06:48.000 --> 00:06:52.000
So welcome to the charity case club.

00:06:52.000 --> 00:06:56.000
Another fascinating thing about the way Luke tells his story,

00:06:56.000 --> 00:07:01.000
he's really brilliant in it, in this, in Acts.

00:07:01.000 --> 00:07:05.000
He tells us that even though, you know, it's that same,

00:07:05.000 --> 00:07:08.000
he wants to tie it to the Tower of Babel, so he does say,

00:07:08.000 --> 00:07:11.000
oh, you know, the Spirit touches their tongues,

00:07:11.000 --> 00:07:14.000
he words it exactly like the Tower of Babel.

00:07:14.000 --> 00:07:19.000
But then, no one says, they're speaking our language.

00:07:19.000 --> 00:07:22.000
It's not the experience of anyone in the whole place.

00:07:22.000 --> 00:07:25.000
At the Tower of Babel, everyone's talking in new languages

00:07:25.000 --> 00:07:28.000
and no one can understand because everyone's talking in new languages.

00:07:28.000 --> 00:07:33.000
This one, the miracle is not the tongues, it's the ears.

00:07:33.000 --> 00:07:38.000
This one, it says, how is it we're hearing that in our own language?

00:07:38.000 --> 00:07:39.000
How is it we're...

00:07:39.000 --> 00:07:42.000
So I don't want you to think that someone who's touched with the Spirit

00:07:42.000 --> 00:07:46.000
speaks and like 50 languages come out at once.

00:07:46.000 --> 00:07:51.000
How is it we're hearing what they say in our language?

00:07:51.000 --> 00:07:55.000
Well, it's amazing how much understanding can happen if we're interested.

00:07:55.000 --> 00:08:00.000
I mean, kid, there are people who speak English in America

00:08:00.000 --> 00:08:06.000
who can actually understand people from Glasgow.

00:08:06.000 --> 00:08:10.000
If they'll lean in and listen.

00:08:10.000 --> 00:08:15.000
You know, at what point is it not the same language?

00:08:15.000 --> 00:08:16.000
No.

00:08:16.000 --> 00:08:19.000
Sometimes the difference between Colorado and Glasgow

00:08:19.000 --> 00:08:23.000
is not nearly as large as the difference between New York and Texas.

00:08:23.000 --> 00:08:27.000
And that's just an accent.

00:08:27.000 --> 00:08:30.000
What does it mean to understand?

00:08:30.000 --> 00:08:35.000
It means to be willing to lean in and understand.

00:08:35.000 --> 00:08:39.000
The Tower of Babel is a bunch of people

00:08:39.000 --> 00:08:42.000
who have decided they know what to say

00:08:42.000 --> 00:08:46.000
and Pentecost is a bunch of people who have learned how to listen.

00:08:46.000 --> 00:08:51.000
So one sort of nurtures understanding

00:08:51.000 --> 00:08:54.000
and the other nurtures confusion.

00:08:54.000 --> 00:08:58.000
So we're caught on this journey always as community.

00:08:58.000 --> 00:09:02.000
We're caught between Babel and Pentecost.

00:09:02.000 --> 00:09:05.000
We're caught in that dynamic that says,

00:09:05.000 --> 00:09:08.000
how do we lean in and listen a little more?

00:09:08.000 --> 00:09:10.000
Because the minute we do it with someone,

00:09:10.000 --> 00:09:13.000
our ability changes completely.

00:09:13.000 --> 00:09:18.000
You know, we have a lot of times I hear people say,

00:09:18.000 --> 00:09:22.000
I just thought I had an accent.

00:09:22.000 --> 00:09:25.000
You know, they're at a church where someone's from another country.

00:09:25.000 --> 00:09:28.000
They have an accent and I just can't understand them.

00:09:28.000 --> 00:09:33.000
What's fascinating is I know many of the,

00:09:33.000 --> 00:09:34.000
it depends on the priest.

00:09:34.000 --> 00:09:37.000
Some of them are very gifted with languages and some are not.

00:09:38.000 --> 00:09:41.000
That's not necessarily the requisite of being a priest.

00:09:41.000 --> 00:09:44.000
But what I do notice is,

00:09:44.000 --> 00:09:46.000
if they work at relating with the people

00:09:46.000 --> 00:09:48.000
and if they build relationships,

00:09:48.000 --> 00:09:52.000
if their accent doesn't improve one bit in four years,

00:09:52.000 --> 00:09:55.000
people start to understand.

00:09:55.000 --> 00:09:57.000
Well, they get used to the way he talks.

00:09:57.000 --> 00:09:59.000
Why? Because they're interested enough

00:09:59.000 --> 00:10:02.000
and it happens the other way around.

00:10:02.000 --> 00:10:04.000
There are priests who come in and say,

00:10:04.000 --> 00:10:06.000
I'm sorry, I just don't understand.

00:10:06.000 --> 00:10:08.000
And I have to say,

00:10:08.000 --> 00:10:11.000
but you're from Colorado and so are they.

00:10:11.000 --> 00:10:14.000
No, I mean, but it can be that.

00:10:14.000 --> 00:10:15.000
Well, I just don't understand.

00:10:15.000 --> 00:10:16.000
I just don't.

00:10:16.000 --> 00:10:17.000
And it's always them.

00:10:17.000 --> 00:10:18.000
I don't understand them.

00:10:18.000 --> 00:10:20.000
Yes, you don't understand.

00:10:20.000 --> 00:10:22.000
We have to be a people who work

00:10:22.000 --> 00:10:25.000
to be open to the Pentecost spirit

00:10:25.000 --> 00:10:28.000
or we will inevitably fall into the tower of battle.

00:10:28.000 --> 00:10:31.000
We will become a people who cannot understand each other

00:10:31.000 --> 00:10:35.000
because it's all about expressing myself

00:10:35.000 --> 00:10:37.000
and not really hearing.

00:10:37.000 --> 00:10:39.000
There used to be a technique.

00:10:39.000 --> 00:10:40.000
I'm sure they still use it,

00:10:40.000 --> 00:10:45.000
but it was kind of new and shiny in the 80s and 90s

00:10:45.000 --> 00:10:47.000
in psychodynamic theory

00:10:47.000 --> 00:10:49.000
and especially in what was called

00:10:49.000 --> 00:10:51.000
Valon systemic family therapy,

00:10:51.000 --> 00:10:52.000
which is what I studied.

00:10:52.000 --> 00:10:53.000
And they would always have you say,

00:10:53.000 --> 00:10:55.000
now remember in communication,

00:10:55.000 --> 00:10:58.000
when a couple is talking in a couple's counseling

00:10:58.000 --> 00:11:00.000
or in family counseling,

00:11:00.000 --> 00:11:03.000
before someone responds to something,

00:11:03.000 --> 00:11:06.000
you make them say, wait, wait, before you respond,

00:11:06.000 --> 00:11:08.000
what did they just say?

00:11:08.000 --> 00:11:09.000
You make them repeat in their own words

00:11:09.000 --> 00:11:11.000
what the other person just said.

00:11:11.000 --> 00:11:14.000
And until they get used to the irritating question

00:11:14.000 --> 00:11:16.000
that you're going to ask each time,

00:11:16.000 --> 00:11:19.000
they'll tell you exactly what of the first half

00:11:19.000 --> 00:11:21.000
of what someone said.

00:11:21.000 --> 00:11:22.000
They only heard the first half.

00:11:22.000 --> 00:11:23.000
Why?

00:11:23.000 --> 00:11:25.000
Because they spent the rest of the time

00:11:25.000 --> 00:11:27.000
formulating their response.

00:11:27.000 --> 00:11:29.000
And the minute we're formulating our response,

00:11:29.000 --> 00:11:32.000
we're no longer listening.

00:11:32.000 --> 00:11:33.000
We actually have to, you know,

00:11:33.000 --> 00:11:34.000
but I'm going to forget.

00:11:34.000 --> 00:11:35.000
I'm going to forget what they said

00:11:35.000 --> 00:11:37.000
that I wanted to respond to.

00:11:37.000 --> 00:11:40.000
Forgetting your response is not nearly as important

00:11:40.000 --> 00:11:43.000
as hearing everything they had to say

00:11:43.000 --> 00:11:46.000
before my mouth just flies open

00:11:46.000 --> 00:11:50.000
and all sorts of stuff comes out.

00:11:50.000 --> 00:11:54.000
You know, to learn to say, okay, listen to everything.

00:11:54.000 --> 00:11:55.000
I grew up in a family.

00:11:55.000 --> 00:11:57.000
I used to tell people I grew up in a family

00:11:57.000 --> 00:12:01.000
all of us, and I still struggle with it.

00:12:01.000 --> 00:12:04.000
We all have a horrible, horrible habit

00:12:04.000 --> 00:12:07.000
of interrupting each other.

00:12:07.000 --> 00:12:13.000
I mean, six boys, who could have seen that coming?

00:12:13.000 --> 00:12:17.000
You know, but we all cut each other off

00:12:17.000 --> 00:12:19.000
before we're done with a thought.

00:12:19.000 --> 00:12:22.000
And I used to tell people, oh, my gosh.

00:12:22.000 --> 00:12:23.000
We just, we interrupt.

00:12:23.000 --> 00:12:25.000
We just interrupt, and that's not the problem.

00:12:25.000 --> 00:12:26.000
We don't listen.

00:12:26.000 --> 00:12:29.000
That's the problem.

00:12:29.000 --> 00:12:30.000
We interrupt.

00:12:30.000 --> 00:12:33.000
Before you ever interrupt someone,

00:12:33.000 --> 00:12:36.000
you've decided to stop listening.

00:12:36.000 --> 00:12:40.000
And head-to-cost is, how do we open our ears

00:12:40.000 --> 00:12:43.000
before we open our mouth?

00:12:43.000 --> 00:12:44.000
No.

00:12:44.000 --> 00:12:48.000
I remember, that was one of my mother's favorite sayings,

00:12:48.000 --> 00:12:51.000
and I don't want to shock the new generation,

00:12:51.000 --> 00:12:54.000
but my mother, once in a great while,

00:12:54.000 --> 00:12:56.000
as wonderful as we were,

00:12:56.000 --> 00:12:59.000
may have resorted to backhanding us,

00:12:59.000 --> 00:13:01.000
now's the case.

00:13:01.000 --> 00:13:03.000
And of all the things they did,

00:13:03.000 --> 00:13:05.000
that didn't ruin me, the other things did.

00:13:05.000 --> 00:13:09.000
But the thing I'll remember, I think I got,

00:13:09.000 --> 00:13:11.000
she said, I've told you a hundred times,

00:13:11.000 --> 00:13:13.000
it is always more important,

00:13:13.000 --> 00:13:15.000
you always open your ears first, always.

00:13:15.000 --> 00:13:17.000
And I said, even when eating?

00:13:17.000 --> 00:13:20.000
I was a delightful child.

00:13:20.000 --> 00:13:25.000
So, you know, but there's that sense

00:13:25.000 --> 00:13:27.000
where we have to start to say,

00:13:27.000 --> 00:13:31.000
how interested are we in one another?

00:13:31.000 --> 00:13:33.000
I remember at my last parish,

00:13:33.000 --> 00:13:35.000
I can't remember what we were talking about,

00:13:35.000 --> 00:13:37.000
but I said, you know,

00:13:37.000 --> 00:13:42.000
a lot of people in a parish don't know each other.

00:13:42.000 --> 00:13:44.000
A lot of people will say,

00:13:44.000 --> 00:13:46.000
you know, I go there and I know no one,

00:13:46.000 --> 00:13:48.000
I haven't met anyone yet.

00:13:48.000 --> 00:13:51.000
And the answer that is appropriate to give,

00:13:51.000 --> 00:13:54.000
if you can find a nice way to say it,

00:13:54.000 --> 00:13:59.000
is as soon as you're interested, you will.

00:13:59.000 --> 00:14:01.000
As soon as everybody else is interested enough in me,

00:14:01.000 --> 00:14:03.000
I can belong.

00:14:03.000 --> 00:14:05.000
No, no.

00:14:05.000 --> 00:14:08.000
You have to be interested enough in them.

00:14:08.000 --> 00:14:11.000
And you'll get to know people.

00:14:11.000 --> 00:14:14.000
And so we have all these anxieties

00:14:14.000 --> 00:14:17.000
about going out and getting to know people,

00:14:17.000 --> 00:14:21.000
because we're so worried about how we're going to be received.

00:14:21.000 --> 00:14:23.000
And the spirit comes down and says,

00:14:23.000 --> 00:14:25.000
the trick is, start receiving them

00:14:25.000 --> 00:14:27.000
and forget about how you're going to be received.

00:14:27.000 --> 00:14:29.000
That's their job.

00:14:29.000 --> 00:14:33.000
You be open to receiving who they are.

00:14:33.000 --> 00:14:37.000
And a bunch of individuals will become a community.

00:14:37.000 --> 00:14:41.000
And when they really deeply open themselves to the spirit,

00:14:41.000 --> 00:14:44.000
a community starts to become the church.

00:14:44.000 --> 00:14:49.000
We're called to try harder to move from that power of babble

00:14:49.000 --> 00:14:52.000
and open our ears more to one another.

00:14:52.000 --> 00:14:54.000
And I'm finding more and more,

00:14:54.000 --> 00:14:56.000
I thought it would happen the other way around.

00:14:56.000 --> 00:14:59.000
I always thought, as soon as I found inspiration,

00:14:59.000 --> 00:15:04.000
it turns out that if we open our ears first,

00:15:04.000 --> 00:15:07.000
often it is the heart that will fall.

analysis

Father Pat’s message centers on the transformative power of listening and humility as the path to true community and spiritual unity. Drawing from the Gospel of John and the Pentecost narrative, he contrasts the confusion of Babel—born from human arrogance and self-reliance—with the harmony of Pentecost, made possible by divine initiative and open-hearted receptivity. The Holy Spirit, he emphasizes, is not primarily about speaking in tongues, but about enabling understanding. The shift from “I speak” to “I hear” is the key to building not just better relationships but the Church itself. Father Pat encourages us to lean into the Spirit by becoming better listeners, recognizing that grace is a gift, not a merit, and that true communion begins when we prioritize receiving others over being received.

In a deeper and more reflective analysis, Father Pat's homily explores the profound theological and spiritual dynamics between two pivotal biblical events: the Tower of Babel and the Pentecost. He begins by situating the Gospel reading from John within the Easter season, designating it as a "Little Pentecost"—a prelude to the fuller outpouring of the Holy Spirit celebrated in the Acts of the Apostles. In this early moment, Jesus breathes the Spirit upon his already faithful disciples, a moment that is intimate and preparatory, contrasted with the Pentecost in Acts, where the Spirit is poured out on a diverse, global crowd, symbolizing the universality of the Gospel and the Church’s mission.

Father Pat then offers a compelling theological framework: Babel represents humanity’s attempt to ascend to God on their own terms, driven by pride and self-sufficiency. The result is fragmentation and confusion. At Pentecost, by contrast, God descends to humanity, unifying what was once divided—not by eliminating differences, but by creating understanding amid diversity. This is not merely a miracle of speech, but of hearing. The Spirit enables people to understand one another, not because everyone suddenly speaks the same language, but because they are willing to truly listen.

This distinction is central to Father Pat’s message. He argues that misunderstanding arises not from difference itself, but from the refusal to listen. Babel is not just a mythological explanation of linguistic diversity, but a spiritual metaphor: when we become so focused on expressing ourselves, our own plans, and asserting our own rightness, we stop listening. Communication breaks down, not because of the variety of languages or opinions, but because of our inward focus and pride. Pentecost, then, becomes the divine remedy—not a reversal of diversity, but a sanctification of it through mutual understanding, made possible by the Spirit.

Father Pat further contextualizes this dynamic in practical pastoral and psychological terms. Drawing from his background in family systems therapy, he describes a familiar human tendency: when we listen only to formulate a response, rather than to understand, we cease to truly hear. He recalls therapeutic practices where individuals are asked to repeat what the other person said before responding—a discipline that reveals how little we often absorb when we’re focused on ourselves. This “listening discipline” is not just helpful in therapy, but essential for Christian community.

He also reflects on the role of relational interest in the ability to understand. Using examples from parish life, he notes that people often say they cannot understand someone due to an accent or cultural difference. But when they invest in a relationship with that person, understanding naturally increases. It’s not about intellectual comprehension but about relational attentiveness. When we care enough to understand someone, even language barriers become permeable.

This leads to one of Father Pat’s central themes: community is not built when we ask, “Who will receive me?” but when we ask, “Whom can I receive?” The Spirit does not prompt us to demand inclusion, but to extend it. The Church is born not from people asserting their place, but from people receiving one another in love. In this way, Pentecost is not just a historical event, but a continual call to conversion—from self-expression to self-giving, from speaking to listening, from pride to humility.

He concludes by asserting that inspiration—the movement of the Spirit—often comes not before we listen, but after. We don't wait to be moved in order to open our ears; rather, by choosing to listen first, our hearts are opened, and the Spirit finds fertile soil. In a world increasingly marked by noise, division, and self-promotion, Father Pat invites us to return to the simplicity and power of Pentecost: a community formed not by uniformity, but by a shared willingness to hear and receive one another in the Spirit of Christ.
