    This sermon has a strong focus on "little-c catholic Christians," focusing their attention on the words of a Canaanitish woman which found their way into Western Christianity’s eucharistic liturgy.

    Looking at some of the things we can create with our mouths.

    Out of the mouth When is a parable not a parable? That question always comes to my mind when I read today’s passage from Matthew’s Gospel.

     | 25,863 views

    Today we see how the faith of a Canaanite woman found expression in the apparent rejection of her by Christ.

    Introductory Considerations 1. The scene before us seems very wrong. The reactions and words of Jesus are not what I would have expected them to be. If I were only able to share one story from His ministry with an unbeliever, surely this is not the one that I would chose, for the impression they ...read more
