    Saturday of the 12th Week in Course 2023 There are really three stories in today’s Gospel.

    Friday of the 11th Week in Course 2023 I had for about nine years the privilege of leading a Christian secondary school. One of the skills we taught in our writing classes was, as in many schools, how to write a resume for college applications. And, as principal, I got to read very many resumes ...read more

    God Does Not Need Anything from Us. It's the Other Way around.

    Twelfth Sunday in Course 2023 The words of Jeremiah today sound very much like a political candidate’s lament over the words of an enemy: Here’s what my opponent is plotting: “Denounce him. . .perhaps he can be deceived, then we can overcome him. . .” But really, those of us who have been around ...read more

    Restoring the prophetic voice.

    Solemnity of John the Baptist 2023 St. Paul knew how to approach the Jews and the Gentiles who had an interest in the Jewish faith as he went through Asian Minor and Greece to spread the Gospel of Christ.

    Here is how Jesus kept His ministry going after His ascension.

    Eleventh Sunday in Course 2023 Over the years, I have been blessed to function in a number of leadership positions both inside and outside the Church and school systems.

    Saturday of the 9th Week in Course 2023 The story of the journey of Tobias, narrated in the deuterocanonical book of Tobit, is one of the most inspirational from the OT period.

     | 727 views

    We see the miracle of God in the desert called “manna which you did not know, nor did your fathers know.”

    Corpus Christi 2023 Today’s solemnity of the Most Holy Body and Blood of Christ is called Corpus Christi, for short, because prior to the major calendar changes late in the last century, the Precious Blood of Christ had its own separate feast. So we celebrate today the fact that Christ’s promise ...read more

     | 667 views

    God is not a big muscle-guy waiting to pounce on us if we do something morally wrong.

    Trinity Sunday 2023 If you walked in a little late for our service today, you may have arrived after all the Scripture was proclaimed.

    Give Us The Wisdom Of Jesus

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on May 30, 2023
     | 593 views

    Saturday of 8th Week in Course 2023 Wisdom. Holy Wisdom in Greek is Agios Sophia. The word is in the feminine gender not only in Greek but in Latin, so the pronoun is “her.” Sophia is a she, and we’ve probably all known women and girls who carried that very Christian name. Jesus ben Sira, the ...read more

    Our biggest problem can be fixed by repentance and confession. We can be healed through this charism of the Church.

    Pentecost Sunday 2023 Today’s first reading from the Acts of the Apostles is so striking, with its description of the Holy Spirit’s descent in the form of fire, and the resulting prayer in tongues, that it tends to overwhelm the rest of the Scriptures.

    Today’s readings from the NT close out both the book of Acts and the Gospel of John.

    Saturday of 7th Week in Easter 2023 Today’s readings from the NT close out both the book of Acts and the Gospel of John.
