The Extra Meisl is a Catholic homily podcast by Fr. Nick Meisl, offering weekly reflections on the Sunday Mass readings. The title plays on the Gospel call to go the extra mile (Matthew 5:41), inviting deeper engagement with Scripture and everyday faith. Recorded at St. Peter’s Parish in New Westminster, the homilies draw on Fr. Nick’s work as a parish pastor and biblical scholar.

In the Scripture, we read about an entity, Satan, who works against the goodness of God. Whereas God is a communion of love, Satan brings division, separating people from God and one another. In the Gospel (Mark 3:20-35) Jesus declares he has defeated Satan. Christ has created one family of God. We have been given the grace to bring unity. Only we prevent this by happening, by rejecting the power of Christ, something Mark calls the blasphemy against the Holy Spirit.
