The Homily follows the Gospel Reading in a typical Mass service. It is basically where the priest explains the Gospel Reading and talks about the faith you are at Mass to pursue. It usually lasts around 10-15 mins. A Homily can also be called the Sermon.

∙ 12y agoThe "Homily" is treatise given during the Catholic Mass in which the priest discusses the readings of that day (old testement, epistle, and gospel readings). The Priest may discuss how the daily readings from The Bible relate to issues of the day and other moral and religious points he wishes to make. Homilies are the kind of preaching that was used by the Apostles and Fathers in addressing the faithful. Homlies are expository of the Word (Sermo in latin) of God and therefore are not considered a sermon, the Word of God itself.
