Here Comes Trouble Again! # 2b

Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Apr 6, 2022

In the previous sermon, we established that one of the things that distinguishes us from each other is the way we conduct ourselves when troubles come our way.

When the good times come, we all respond basically the same way. For example, when someone asks us HOW WE ARE, all of us just give them a big smile and we say, “GREAT!” In the difficult times, we can see the difference in people. When the difficult times come and you ask them HOW THEY ARE. . . • ...read more

Let's examine the events of Jesus' crucifixion in Matthew 27.

What did they do as they crucified Jesus? Let’s look at Matthew 27:34-66. The soldiers gave Jesus wine mixed with bitter gall, but when he had tasted it, he refused to drink it. After they had nailed him to the cross, the soldiers gambled for his clothes by throwing dice. Then they sat around and ...read more

Thirtieth Sunday In Ordinary Time, B: Bartimaeus

Contributed by Paul Andrew on Oct 11, 2024

Jesus never gave any person with a disability, who was begging, money or any material goods.

Bartimaeus, called “a blind man,” in Mark 10:46, is begging on Jericho Street, we hear in our Gospel today, and a verse from the First Reading, Jeremiah 31:8, describes those such as him as the “blind and the lame.” Today, we would be more sensitive and say that Bartimaeus is “person who is blind; ...read more
