What Is Your Autobiography's Title?

Homily from the Second Sunday of Lent

Every story has a title. Does one moment define the whole thing?

There is often a speech that lives inside each of us. That speech can become the title of our story. Is that title marked by resentment? Or is there a larger event that can define our lives?
