  • Gideon, Scientist Series

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Jun 21, 2020
     | 3,049 views

     | 1,866 views

    But when that trumpet blows and the game of life is complete, Christ’s forbearance is done, and those who have been procrastinating in their conversion will be lost.

    Pentecost Tuesday 2020 You may have noticed that we reached back into Peter’s second letter to the passage coming right before the one prescribed for today, to grab some context that was lost when we celebrated the Feast of Mary, Mother of the Church, yesterday.

    Psalm 131–a homily for today Today’s psalm, “O Lord, my heart is not proud,” is the kind of prayer-gem that can stimulate hours of meditation.

    Ascension Sunday 2020 What if you see?
