In the Gospel, Mary and Joseph both have to "get out of the way"; that is, they both have to practice radical humility in order to accept their radical roles in God's plan of salvation. At the end of the homily, Deacon Matt offers a few practical suggestions for how to "get out of the way" and allow God to work wonders in your life.
