Writing a homily after the Trump assassination attempt
Manage episode 429366698 series 2359720
“There were people who came up to me and said, ‘thank you for saying what you said about the rhetoric. I hope that the Biden people get this message.’ And then other people would stop and say, ‘thank you for what you said. This is [what] Trump people really need to hear.’” Greg Kandra shared, “so I think somehow by the grace of God, I walked to that middle line and I gave a message that everybody connected to and related to, and was able to take something positive from.”
On this episode of “Preach,” host Ricardo da Silva, S.J., talks with Deacon Greg Kandra about the homily he wrote in two hours after hearing the news of the attempted assassination of Donald Trump at a rally in Butler, Pa., this past weekend. The homily was first delivered for the congregation at St. Francis of Assisi Church in Apopka, Fla., where Greg serves as a deacon.
Greg’s career spans three decades in television, collaborating with industry giants such as Dan Rather, Ed Bradley and Katie Couric, and earning two Emmys and two Peabody Awards. As an ordained deacon in the Catholic Church, he skillfully integrates his passion for storytelling, honed in the newsroom, with his unwavering commitment to his Catholic faith, which he professes from the ambo.
