At some point, Catholics need to decide what they want in a homily: a short “thought for the day” reflection or something more substantial, which takes more time.

It depends ... Weekday Mass at noon, the congregation have mostly taken off work to have lunch with The Lamb. A very brief, very much to-the-point sermon is an act of charity to them. Sundays allow more time for depth and detail.

I believe that Monsignor was hinting at that.

I am one of the lectors at my church. I have a theater and speech/debate background, so I am passionate about making sure the initial reading of the Scripture was clearly heard and understood to begin with.
