For the video today, Fr. MD focuses mainly on the second reading.  The reading tells us that St. Paul was scolding early Christians for not working hard.  Why were they not working?  They thought the world would end soon during their time and it was no point for them to work hard.  Let’s watch the video to see what Fr. MD has to say.  Based on the readings of Malachi 3: 19-20; 2 Thessalonians 3: 7-12; & Luke 21: 5-19.
