For me, any homily could be a tear-jerker if the Holy Spirit is talking to me through it. That doesn’t happen most of the time, but it occasionally does.What is your opinion of tear-jerker homilies during Mass? Do you like them, feel neutral about them, or hate them? Sometimes I like them, and sometimes I hate them. Our parochial vicar told one today and I was so close to crying. I haven’t had a tear-jerker homily in a long time, so it was kind of refreshing.
Do you mean like sad stories about disabled children overcoming impossible odds, and stuff like that? Not a real fan, myself, although I don’t mind them once in a while.What is your opinion of tear-jerker homilies during Mass? Do you like them, feel neutral about them, or hate them?

This is how it affects me also.I have often cried during a homily, but not because it was a tear jerker story but because the priest’s words struck a chord in me that brought me to tears.
