[quote=Anonymous]OP, how long have you been Catholic? It’s very surprising that you were unaware that all Catholic churches use the same readings every week and that they are on a three year cycle. When I was a child, we had a one year cycle, so we had the same readings on the same Sundays each year, but we’ve been on the three year cycle for many, many years now. A friend of mine who is a Methodist pastor told me that her church frequently uses the Catholic lectionary for their Sunday services. So, it’s not even just the Catholic churches using the same readings each week. And it’s a homily, not a sermon. A homily is based on the Bible readings for that week, which means that a priest can’t just pick any random topic that’s in the news to discuss. [/quote]
