Jesus tells us: “Anyone who does not renounce all of his possessions cannot be my disciple.” (Luke 14:33) That can sound overwhelming — but what if we started with just one possession?

In this homily, Fr. Meyer challenges us to look at our phones not as harmless tools, but as devices that can easily enslave us if left unchecked. Drawing from the newly canonized St. Carlo Acutis, who used technology wisely while living a life rooted in the Eucharist, we’re invited to ask: Do I own my phone, or does it own me?

📖 Gospel Reference: Luke 14:25–33

🙏 “We will not be possessed by our possessions, but live as sons and daughters of God.”
