The OMG reflections from Steve Leininger & Steve Hall
Inspired by Mass readings from Tuesday, September 1, 2026
A spirited discussion
The spiritual person, who is taught by the Spirit and can rightly evaluate spiritual matters

Click here to read Steve Leininger’s reflection from September 1, 2026. Here’s an excerpt:
We are told the Spirit scrutinizes everything, even the depths of God, and no one knows what pertains to God except the Spirit of God. And we learn that not with words taught by human wisdom, but with words taught by the Spirit, describing spiritual realities in spiritual terms.
Steve Leininger’s reflections: For our knowledge is imperfect and our prophecy is imperfect; but when the perfect comes, the imperfect will pass away. (1 Corinthians 13:9)
What is there about his word?
Funny how verses in Scripture sometimes catch your attention and then just won’t let go
By Steve Hall

Click here to read Steve Hall’s reflection from Septembe 1, 2026. Here’s an excerpt:
It is only with at least a minimal level of spiritual maturity that one can recognize the enormous difference between man and God. Youth couldn’t grasp the beyond-cosmic size of that gap. (Maturity can’t grasp it either, but at least can know it’s there.)
Steve Hall’s reflections: For our knowledge is imperfect and our prophecy is imperfect; but when the perfect comes, the imperfect will pass away. (1 Corinthians 13:9)
