About this listen
In this homily, Fr. Rob reminds us of the profound power of words—how they can heal, encourage, and give strength, or how they can wound and discourage. Reflecting on Jesus’ baptism and the words spoken from heaven, “You are my beloved Son; with you I am well pleased,” this homily explores how affirmation shapes identity and sustains us through life’s hardest moments.
Through humor, personal storytelling, and a deeply pastoral insight, Fr. Rob invites listeners to consider a life-changing question: What would God say about you? The answer offered is one of hope and reassurance—that God, like someone who loves deeply, looks past our flaws and brokenness and sees the goodness within us.
This reflection encourages us to hear those same words spoken to Jesus as words spoken to us: that we are beloved, known, and pleasing to God, not because we are perfect, but because we are loved.
