  <description>&lt;p&gt;Homily from the Thirtieth Sunday in Ordinary Time.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;We do not conquer our rivals, we are called out from beneath their power.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;The voices around us shape us. Some voices shape us more powerfully and more negatively than others. These rival voices fashion a lens through which we see the world. They can rob us of peace, joy, and Christ place in our heart. But to take courage, get up, Jesus is calling you.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;dl&gt;
