    St. Luke records that when Jesus began his ministry, he proclaimed that He was sent “to heal the brokenhearted, and proclaim deliverance to captives.”

    Sixteenth Sunday After Pentecost 2018 Healing of the Heart When I was growing up in the fifties and early sixties, this Extraordinary Form Mass was everywhere the norm. So we heard this wonderful Gospel every year. But what is “dropsy”? Now we have the Internet and we can learn easily that dropsy ...read more

    The Wisdom Of God And The Witness Of Martyrs

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Sep 1, 2018
     | 2,429 views

    The wisdom of every age considers the Catholic faith a folly. The only promise Christ made about this life is that we would be blessed through the agency of persecution.

    Thursday of the 22nd Week in Course 2018 St. Donatian of Africa The wisdom of any secular age considers the Christian faith to be folly. The reason for this is that the wisdom of a given secular age is focused on how to attain pleasure, status or power. It is essentially centered on the ...read more

    What distinguished the Corinthian church was their usage of the spiritual gifts, especially the more dramatic ones like praying in tongues and healing.

    Thursday of 21st Week in Course 2018 Ss Felix and Adauctus Our Lord is not satisfied with half-measures, and neither should we be so satisfied. It has been said that the goal of life is to depart this earth prepared to be canonized saints. That means that we must do good and avoid evil, but to an ...read more

    The Holy Ghost has the power to sweep up the shards and make from this mess a magnificent mosaic of Christ.

    Fourteenth Sunday in Course: Extraordinary Lectionary The Church is in a “time that tries men's souls,” and it is not God who has put us in this trial by fire. A good friend of mine is a convert to the Catholic faith, and recently told me that if she were in the decision phase of that conversion ...read more

    Prayer And Fasting In A Young Life

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Aug 17, 2018
     | 3,017 views

    God is a jealous God. He only wants the best for us, and if we try to accept less than that, He makes certain we can’t have it. With God, it’s all or nothing!

    Thursday of 20th Week in Course 2018 St. Rose of Lima The Church is in a trying time, and it is not God who has put us in that trial. It hardly ever is, isn’t it? When we find ourselves assailed by the people or institutions around us, it has usually involved some failing of the people in the ...read more

    Forgive those who offend you or God cannot forgive your own sins. Be merciful as your heavenly Father is merciful.

    Thursday of 19th Week in Course St Stephen of Hungary Today’s first reading, from the prophet Ezekiel, is so short that it tends to run right through our heads without finding purchase. So I’ll read it again, The word of the LORD came to me: 2"Son of man, you dwell in the midst of a rebellious ...read more

    Holiness And Controversy

    The life of St Teresa Benedicta of the Cross is inspirational but off-putting to some.

    St. Teresa Benedicta of the Cross August 9, 2018 We are the people of the New Covenant, the covenant made in the blood of our Lord, Jesus Christ. Israel was brought out of Egypt by the power of God. He then gave them the Old Covenant made in the blood of lambs and oxen, written on stone in the Ten ...read more

    Me, Too And Saint Maria Goretti

    Contraception enabled many to adopt sinful lifestyles without fear of pregnancy, and the other results were predictable and damaging.

    July 6, 2018 Feast of St. Maria Goretti Our God is a God of mercy and compassion, but He is also the God of justice and equity. Defenseless people are His particular specialty. Crimes against those who cannot defend themselves, who have no physical or political power, are very offensive to the ...read more

    We need to get very, very serious about promoting priestly vocations

    Eleventh Sunday after Pentecost Extraordinary Form “Ephpheta, be thou opened,” Jesus said, after groaning, “and immediately his ears were opened, and the impediment to his speech was loosed, and he spoke clearly.” Come to any baptism–as we’ll have here on Saturday the eighteenth, and you’ll hear ...read more

    Put Off Your Old Nature And Build A Culture Of Life

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Jul 27, 2018
     | 4,789 views

    Let’s get serious about our following of Jesus, about rededicating ourselves to our vocations, to our families.

    Eighteenth Sunday in Course 2018 Today the Word of God reminds us of the fallen nature of humans. God liberated the people of Israel from slavery in the fields and swamps and deserts of Egypt. Moses and Aaron led them out after God worked multiple signs and wonders to convince Pharaoh of the ...read more

    Eusebius Versus Arius: A Critical Defense Of The Faith

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Jul 27, 2018
     | 3,136 views

    The word "consubstantial" is so important that we either bow or kneel when we commemorate the conception of Jesus in Mary’s womb during that prayer.

    Thursday of 17th Week in Course St. Eusebius of Vercelli Today’s Scripture gives us two parables, one from Jeremiah and the second from Jesus Himself. Jeremiah visited a potter, probably a novice potter, because what he threw on the wheel turned out badly. But one thing every potter learns is that ...read more

    Celebrating The Grandparents Of Jesus Christ

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Jul 23, 2018
     | 2,962 views

    If Mary’s response to the angel was an enthusiastic “yes,” then we can look to her parents for their own constant response to God’s commands, their answer of “yes” to His will.

    Thursday of the 16th Week in Course 2018 Ss Joachim and Anne, parents of Mary Today we commemorate two of the great persons of salvation history, the parents of the Blessed Virgin Mary, whom tradition calls Joachim and Anne.

    The Holy Spirit Guides The Church

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Jul 15, 2018
     | 2,676 views

    The Council was critical to the defense of the faith and the worldwide evangelical effort that was already beginning. It was truly a work of the Holy Spirit.

    Thursday of the Fifteenth Week in Course 2018 Reformation/Revolution The words of Jesus today are so poignant that most of us have probably memorized them sometime in our lives. A yoke is the implement an ox or other draft animal wears between head and body. Slaves might be made to wear such ...read more

    Mammon Made Righteous

     | 3,248 views

    To restore all things in Christ, we need the mammon, made righteous by your giving generously, to do it.

    8th Sunday After Pentecost 2018 Extraordinary Form Today we come face to face with what we might title Divine Economics 101. It owes nothing to Adam Smith, or Friedrich Hayek or even G.K. Chesterton. It requires a special care in reading because the Gospel might convince us that Jesus is ...read more

    Thursday of the 14th Week in Course 2018 Reformation/Revolution “No gold, nor silver, nor copper in your belts, no bag for your journey, nor two tunics, nor sandals, nor a staff.” It sounds like a scene from the luggage carrel at an airport I flew into a couple of decades ago.
