    What do sheep and goats and heaven and hell have to do with my life now?

    We are not called to apply the superficial wisdom of American culture to reshape our Catholic identity. We are called to alert Americans to the wisdom of Catholic culture that is given to us by Our Lord.

    Fourth Sunday of Easter 2018 The Good Shepherd In a popular movie from a few years back, the main character, a gung-ho SEAL from Odessa, tells his listeners that there are three kinds of people: wolves, sheep, and sheepdogs. The wolves prey on the sheep, the sheep cower in fear, and the sheepdogs ...read more

    The familiar dialogue between Peter and Jesus after the fish miracle on the Galilean beach reinstates Peter as a disciple and calls others to Fish but also Shepherd.

    That one single lost sheep is as worthy and as loved as a flock of 99 safe sheep or saved sheep. And that heaven rejoices more over the one lost soul that repents than it does over a whole church who already believes.

    The parable of the lost sheep in Luke 15:4-7 teaches us that there is joy in heaven over every sinner who repents.

    Scripture In our study in The Gospel of Luke we are now in chapter 15. Jesus was reaching the tax collectors and sinners with the good news of salvation. This infuriated the Pharisees and the scribes. Luke 15 is Jesus’ reply to the Pharisees and the scribes. It is a marvelous illustration of ...read more

    "The Parable of the Sheep and the Goats" is not mentioned in any of the other gospels, no doubt because the other Gospels do not focus on Christ’s kingship, as does Matthew. For that same reason Matthew places much greater emphasis on all aspects of the L

    Now I am not a chef, but I would imagine that if you were going to feed a group of chefs, you had better know something about cooking. Our Lord told Peter to, "feed My sheep.”

    In this particular passage of scripture, he is feeding the “Spiritual Chefs”, the ministers of the gospel. Notice that he speaks of: I. THE ELDER Verse 1. "The elders which are among you...” From this verse we see who he is addressing and where they are located: “Which are among you…” ...read more
