    Tuesday of the 14th Week in Course 2019 Jacob ben Isaac was a cheat, a liar and a thief. You may recall from an earlier reading in Genesis that he lied, cheated and stole his older brother, Esau’s, first-born blessing. Then, wisely, he left town and took up with Laban, where he married two sisters ...read more

     | 2,138 views

    Do we let our good deeds shine out or do we do them in secret? Is Jesus talking out of both sides of His mouth here?

    Wednesday of 11th Week in Course 2019 A priest I know preached recently on this passage from St. Matthew’s Gospel and pointed out that this part of the Sermon on the Mount appears to contradict the earlier passage that tells us not to hide the good that we do under a basket.

    Sex And The Young Christian

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Jun 14, 2019
     | 1,941 views

    Sex is a bridge between husband and wife, and between generations. That means they must not be abused in the pursuit of the secondary meaning of giving pleasure.

    Friday of 10th Week in Course Virtue: Chastity There’s an anecdote that is at least a half-century old, because I first heard it in high school (at this point you should state a disclaimer that this homily is not written for pre-teens). An organization announced a lecture by some out-of-town ...read more

     | 2,942 views

    If Christians disagree about strategies and persons to work with, that may just be God working with our weaknesses to write straight with crooked lines.

    Tuesday of Pentecost Week 2019 Feast of St. Barnabas I can’t imagine, at the end of one’s life, any better way to be thought of than what we read about the Apostle Barnabas: “he was a good man, full of the Holy Spirit and of faith.” What more does a man need in life? We’ll come back to the life of ...read more

    Tuesday of the 7th Week in Easter 2019 Sometimes it helps us to understand that the Roman world in the first century did not speak Latin all over, or write in Latin all over the place.

    Tuesday of the 5th Week in Easter 2019 What are the two most important moments in any person’s life? In your life? In my life?
