     | 2,749 views

    The unjust steward is not commended for his fraud, but for his thinking on his feet.

    THE PARABLE OF THE UNJUST STEWARD. Luke 16:1-13. For centuries interpreters have been more than a little puzzled, perplexed and disturbed by the parable of the unjust steward, at the beginning of Luke 16. The Emperor Julian, otherwise known as Julian the Apostate, even tried to use this parable ...read more

    Be careful of who you believe and fellowship with in these last days.

    Revelation 3:15-17 15 I know thy works, that thou art neither cold nor hot: I would thou wert cold or hot. 16 So then because thou art lukewarm, and neither cold nor hot, I will spue thee out of my mouth. 17 Because thou sayest, I am rich, and increased with goods, and have need of nothing; and ...read more

  • Giving God The Best Series

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Oct 16, 2021
     | 2,629 views

    In everything we do, worship, service, outreach, we always give our best because the Father gave us His best, Jesus Christ and His Holy Spirit.

    Monday of 29th Week in Course We celebrate here the one who died for our sins and was raised by the Father for our justification. The celebration of the Eucharistic sacrifice turns us into the opposite of the miser remembered in the Gospel, whom Joachim Jeremias believes was a real person whose ...read more

  • Shutting Down The Hypocrites, Especially Ourselves

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Oct 30, 2024
     | 389 views

    Jesus, here in Mark’s Gospel, gives us a start on our understanding the proper response to hypocrisy.

    Thirty-first Sunday in Course 2024 How could you get a hypocrite to shut up? They are called “Karens” these days, which to me is an disrespectful misuse of a woman’s name. Nonetheless, no matter what you call that kind of behavior, pharisaical people are just about as irritating as one can be. ...read more

     | 380 views

    When the people turn to God in praise and right living, in true justice, they will know the fullness of peace, and God will be in their midst to console and empower them.

    Second Sunday of Advent 2024 The prophet Baruch was assistant to the prophet Jeremiah. His mentor is associated mostly with the final days of the Kingdom of Judah, and his prophecies were generally so dire that we now call such language a “jeremiad.” Wow. Imagine several hundred years from now ...read more

  • The Mission Transcends Mere Geography

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Feb 9, 2025
     | 302 views

    The fame of Jesus spread far from Capernaum and His words and healing were affecting many thousands, preparing both Jew and Gentile for the expansion of the Church after Pentecost .

    Friday of the Fifth Week in Course 2025 Most modern Christians in North America, I believe, are unfamiliar with first-century geography, even of the Holy Land. I think if I use a midwestern U.S. parable, it might be easier to envision than what St. Mark records in his Gospel here. Let’s try ...read more

  • Joy And Sorrow And "fun" Series

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Mar 4, 2024
     | 781 views

    My boss said he wished he could expunge the word “fun” from our students’ working vocabulary. Now knowing what students at our all-boy high school could do outside supervision, I tended to agree.

    Joy, Sorrow and “Fun” Some time ago, I listened to a sermon by the local pastor. He told us that the Ten Commandments were given to us by God so that we could all “enjoy” life. I’m sure there are many, even Christians, who would question that. After all, the Commandments are largely a list of ...read more

  • Wise Guys

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Aug 27, 2024
     | 557 views

    If the philosopher strayed too far from that path, he risked following Socrates to an inevitable early death.

    Friday of the Twenty-First Week in Course 2024 Wise Guys “For Jews demand signs and Greeks seek wisdom, but we preach Christ crucified, a stumbling block to Jews and folly to Gentiles, but to those who are called, both Jews and Greeks, Christ the power of God and the wisdom of God.” In the first ...read more

  • Looking Forward--And Inward--For The Messianic Age

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Sep 3, 2024
     | 398 views

    We are an egalitarian people. All of us have equal dignity, even if our economic circumstances differ from each other.

    Twenty-Third Sunday in Course 2024 How can we characterize the prophet Isaiah and his disciples, who have given us the greatest collection of prophetic Biblical stories and sayings in the OT? Isaiah and his community were men living in terrible times of strife and suffering whose faith enabled them ...read more

  • Can We Call God To The Bar Of Justice?

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Mar 31, 2025
     | 239 views

    In two weeks we will be celebrating the three days that shook the world, and the Friday we call “Good” because it led to our redemption.

    Friday of the Fourth Week of Lent 2025 As St. Paul and others spread the joyous and demanding Gospel of Jesus Christ throughout the Roman world, and even beyond, they read from the Scriptures. But the story of Jesus was available orally. The Gospels in writing were not set down on papyrus right ...read more

  • Contrasting Leadership Styles Series

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Jun 1, 2025
     | 179 views

    Christ who forgave Paul’s many sins is willing to forgive all of us by the merits of His passion: “as far as the east is from the west, so far does he remove our transgressions from us.”

    Friday of the Seventh Week of Easter 2025 I suppose if we were making a list of the ten worst political leaders of the last two thousand years, King Agrippa II would vie with President James Buchanan for a slot. Buchanan, of course, in his one term managed to involve our nation in a horrible ...read more

  • The Unselfish, Ever-Giving Love Of Jesus

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Sep 1, 2025
     | 117 views

    Christ's unchanging love, entering into our ever-changing lives and worlds, can only be effective if we allow ourselves to expand our hearts and lives to try to love Him in return.

    Friday of the 22nd Week in Course 2025 (St. Teresa of Calcutta) “In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. He was in the beginning with God. All things came into being through him, and without him not one thing came into being.” That is how St. John the ...read more
