    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on May 9, 2023
     | 750 views

    Nothing could stand or be allowed to stand in the way of spreading the Christian gospel.

    Saturday of the 5th Sunday of Easter 2023 St. Paul’s mission to the Jews and the Gentiles took him several times into the Roman province of Asia, an area we now assign to Turkey. The area of Mysia, which is just south of the Sea of Marmora, has in it the city of Troas, which is close to the ...read more

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on May 4, 2023
     | 1,091 views

    The Church must always be moving forward into the future, so into the sunrise, with and for Christ.

    Fifth Sunday of Easter 2023 “The cornerstone is an important part of any masonry foundation. It is the first stone that is set in the construction of the foundation and all other stones are set in reference to this stone.” If you haven’t figured out what the cornerstone of the Church is, please ...read more

  • The Purpose Of Our Celebration Series

     | 782 views

    To know the Father it is necessary to know Christ, and from that Passover on, they will know and see the Father.

    Saturday of the Fourth Week of Easter 2023 When contemplating this reading from the fourteenth chapter of St. John’s Gospel, it is very important to realize that this is taken from Christ’s last prayer and teaching at the Last Supper, the beginning of Jesus’s own Passover. Jesus has just told his ...read more

  • Different Sheep For A Very Different Shepherd Series

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Apr 28, 2023
     | 767 views

    We must think of Jesus as Shepherd in a new way, lest we just think of a fellow in a robe and beard cuddling a little lamb.

    Fourth Sunday of Easter 2023 We have a great privilege this week. Today is, as most of you know, Good Shepherd Sunday, and not just for us Catholics. But in the weekly readings, we are also given texts telling us more about our Good Shepherd, Jesus Christ. Still, lest we just think of a fellow in ...read more

     | 835 views

    We want to live in confidence in this God of resurrection, and so we believe in God, hope to be united with God eternally, and love each other so we can accomplish those tasks.

    Third Sunday in Easter 2023 As the Church moves more deeply into the Easter season, we are presented this year with the awesome story of the two disciples walking together to Emmaus, away from Jerusalem, away from the grave of the man they had followed for perhaps three years. They were ...read more

  • I Am, Fear Not Series

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Apr 18, 2023
     | 622 views

    All resources are finite, and so when food and other sustenance was given to the Christian community’s widows, the goods ran out.

    Saturday of the 2nd Week in Easter 2023 There are some things that human beings do without thinking very long or hard before doing them. You can imagine the power and gas going off in a severe winter storm and then burning clothes and furniture in the fireplace to keep warm. Or one might find a ...read more

  • Bearing With One Another, And What It Does Not Mean Series

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Apr 16, 2023
     | 718 views

    Christ’s appearances shocked and surprised His disciples.

    Sunday After Easter Office of Readings (Col 3: 1-17) We have been, as St. Paul attests, raised up in company with Christ, and must set our heart on what pertains to higher realms, things above rather than things of earth. Now as earthly creatures, coming from other earthly creatures and set in the ...read more

  • The Seventeen Percent Or The Seventy-Two? Series

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Apr 13, 2023
     | 780 views

    Frodo from Lord of the Rings is great fiction, but Jesus is the Risen King of the Universe.

    Sunday After Easter 2023 A couple of years ago, Rasmussen surveyed Americans and found that seventy-two out of every hundred Americans believe that Jesus is Son of God and raised from the dead. Seventeen percent definitely deny that. Thomas the Apostle, after being told of Christ’s physical rising ...read more

  • He Is Lord And Christ, But What Does That Mean? Series

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Apr 11, 2023
     | 693 views

    Jesus poured out everything–His knowledge, His dignity, His very human life-blood to the last drop on Calvary. He held back nothing so He could give it all to us

    An Easter Homily One of the first phrases out of St. Peter’s mouth on the Day of Pentecost, the day in which the Holy Spirit filled the disciples of Jesus and they broke out in tongues and prophecy, is “Therefore let all the house of Israel know for certain that God has made Him both Lord and ...read more

  • Did Judas Do Any Good? Series

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Apr 5, 2023
     | 703 views

    Judas got nothing good–not pleasure or honor or power. He ended up being the only person in the Bible whom God judged as being better off never being born.

    Wednesday of Holy Week 2023 It does not seem terribly fair what happened to poor Kerioth-born Judas, as Matthew records it. He sells out Jesus for what in today’s currency would be about $260. Then, seeing Jesus condemned to death, he changes his mind and attempts to return the money to the ...read more

    Palm/Passion Sunday 2023 We have just proclaimed some of the longest, most intense Scriptures of our Christian year, informing us and all the world of the what and why and who of the sacrificial death of Jesus Christ not quite two thousand years ago. These words invite long contemplation; the ...read more

     | 851 views

    Here was the man who showed by His mighty works that He could perhaps make the prophecies of Ezekiel and Jeremiah and all the other prophets happen.

    Saturday of the Fifth Week in Lent 2023 Let’s start off our reflection with a few facts that need to be remembered if we are to understand why the Church gives us these rich Scripture passages to consider today: First, the prophecy of Ezekiel the priest was given to the Babylonian exiles about six ...read more

  • Looking Forward To The Reward Series

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Mar 23, 2023
     | 972 views

    This flesh of ours, when given the choice of visiting a prayer chapel or going to a wild party, pushes us to choose the party.

    Fifth Sunday of Lent 2023 It’s very easy for us to be so taken with today’s Gospel that we push aside the short Epistle taken from St. Paul’s letter to the Church at Rome. So let’s look at what he is telling this relatively young community of Jews and Gentiles who have believed in the Gospel of ...read more

  • The Master Of Plot-Twists Series

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Mar 21, 2023
     | 1,079 views

    God is a master at plot twists, isn’t He?

    Solemnity of the Incarnation 2023 The prophet Isaiah was, in my opinion, a master of irony.

    Take a fresh look at familiar Scriptures: we are all sinners in need of repentance and grace. If we want to be saints, there’s always more to do.

    Fourth Sunday of Lent 2023 Laetare Sunday; Rejoice Sunday. We are about halfway through the season of Lent. So how do you know that there’s more work to do to become more like Christ before the Paschal celebration of Easter? Look at it with a sense of humor. You are on Greta Thunberg’s speed dial, ...read more
