    The Best Moment To Repair An Injury

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Dec 11, 2023
     | 738 views

    Forgiveness-based reconciliation is truly a divine Gift.

    Third Sunday of Advent 2023 As I’m looking over our reading from this late chapter of Isaiah, almost certainly written during or after Israel’s Babylonian exile, I am struck by the intersection of the promises God makes to us: good news for the afflicted, healed hearts for the brokenhearted, ...read more

    Intermediary? Why Do I Need A Middle Man Between Me And God?

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Dec 21, 2023
     | 914 views

    If I can't fix my own stereo system, how can I build a path for myself to divine union?

    Fourth Sunday of Advent 2023 So King David, after surviving his quarrel with King Saul and his thousands of followers, taking Jerusalem, the unconquered city, with the loss of barely any men, and extending his rule pretty much from the “river to the sea,” wakes up one morning in his cedar-lined ...read more

    On Thanksgiving: I am thankful I am not a Butterball turkey. There is one thing, above all, for which I give thanks, the lift of Jesus! Like the great old hymn says, love lifted me

    Thanksgiving is a time for expressing our thanks for God’s providence and blessing. I am thankful that teenagers do grow up and eventually have teenagers of their own. I am thankful I am not a Butterball turkey. There is one thing, above all, for which I give thanks, the lift of Jesus! Like the ...read more

    Faith And Love

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Dec 14, 2013
     | 2,286 views

    Like Zechariah and Elizabeth, we must learn the interaction between faith and love in the head and heart

    Thursday of 3rd Week in Advent 2013 Lumen Fidei The story we have in the first chapter of St. Luke’s Gospel is a kind of midrash on the story we read today in the Book of Judges. In both cases a childless couple experiences a miraculous intervention of God to give them a child. But the ...read more

    Unlike the first Adam, who heard God

    Monday of 2nd Week in Advent 2011 Verbum Domini As we hear the Word of God through Isaiah today, it’s hard to miss the fact that as soon as the words: “God will come and save you” are uttered, blindness and deafness are cured and the deserts become gardens and holiness fills the ...read more

    Orienting Ourselves Toward Christ Series

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Dec 18, 2010
     | 2,961 views

    From earliest times, the Church has worshiped in the direction of the east, toward the coming Christ, rather than toward Jerusalem.

    December 21, 2010 Monday of 4th week in Advent Spirit of the Liturgy Isaiah told Ahaz: “Ask a sign of the Lord YOUR God. Ask anything you like.” So Ahaz piously responded, “no, I will not ask for a sign. I will not put the Lord to the test.” And Isaiah, in obvious ...read more

    The Reinstatement & Restoration Of Peter

    Contributed by Diana Ball on Jan 4, 2011
    based on 12 ratings
     | 16,824 views

    We look at the reinstatement of Peter, using the passage in John 21 as our reference.

    After Jesus finished dealing with the physical needs of the Disciples, He then turned to dealing with their spiritual needs. In these verses, we see that Jesus is examining Peter, internally. Peter had repented and been restored to fellowship with the Lord since he had publicly denied Him. ...read more

    Breaking Habits Which Make Us Feel Safe Series

    based on 3 ratings
     | 4,978 views

    The Church must reach out in mission to those who are in need, whatever their stage of spiritual growth or seeking.

    Thursday of 2nd Week in Advent Joy of the Gospel Not everything in the Scriptures is easy for us in the 21st century to understand. That is particularly true in our passages from Isaiah and Matthew today. Isaiah is exaggerating for effect. At the coming of the Redeemer, he says, everything ...read more

    Light In The Spiritual Darkness Series

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Dec 8, 2018
     | 4,314 views

    Our Lord forever is pouring out on us His grace and goodness so that we will learn to do the same thing for Him and for other people.

    Feast of St. Lucy 2018 The constant temptation human beings face is to turn God’s intention for man upside down. Instead of us following the plan to be remade into God’s image, we are constantly trying the impossible. We attempt to remake God in our own image–venal and selfish and cruel and ...read more

    Rejoicing In The Holy Spirit--Our Names Are Written In Heaven Series

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Nov 30, 2019
    based on 1 rating
     | 2,897 views

    We should also rejoice, always. How do you do that when things are going wrong? Trust in God and make an act of thanksgiving for how Our Lord will bring good out of evil.

    Tuesday of the 1st Week of Advent 2019 St. Francis Xavier To be poor is to be weak. It has ever been thus in this valley of tears. The Torah, the first five books of the OT, clearly tells judges not to consider the wealth or poverty of the people who apply for justice to their courts. But we know ...read more

    Let the cross embrace us.

    Tuesday of the 2nd Week in Advent 2019 The Sign of the Cross Those of us that are daily immersed in the Word of God, specifically in the Sacred Scriptures, sometimes forget that what we read each day are revolutionary words. They are revolutionary words intimately associated with the first ...read more

    Our Confession Of Sin Series

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Dec 14, 2019
    based on 1 rating
     | 2,297 views

    Like Abraham, Jacob and David, and like all of our individual ancestors, we fall short of the mark too often–committing venial sins of omission and commission, and perhaps even total turn-aways from God’s plan.

    Tuesday of the 3rd Week in Advent 2019 Our Confession of Sin I have to admit that this is one of my favorite weekday Masses in the whole Lectionary, because we hear the genealogy of Our Lord Jesus. These old Hebrew names don’t necessarily roll off the tongue, but the list is important, because ...read more

    Build On Rock, Not Sand Series

    " pray for our young religious and seminarians, for all of us will be judged on the basis of where we build–on the firm rock of obedience to God, or on shifting sand."

    Thursday of the First Week in Lent Reformation & Revolution It is the happy decision of the Church that brings us so much of the prophet Isaiah as we celebrate the time of expectation, the time of Advent. Isaiah was a prophet of hope in a time of social and religious and political upheaval. ...read more

    A Study Of Psalm 19 And 20 Series

    Contributed by T.j. Conwell on Nov 6, 2017
    based on 2 ratings
     | 7,503 views

    Why don’t we trust God to do what only He can do? He is either a God we can surrender completely too, or He is unreliable, incapable, and ineffective at managing your life. What say you? Will you praise and serve Him?

    A Study of Psalm 19 and 20 Psalm 19 and 20 Introduction - Psalms broken into 5 books, covered an extensive time period - Gathered together as songs of praise & words of encouragement/warning - We are studying book 1, Psalm 1-41 … Info: we’ll take break for Advent - If we apply ourselves, this ...read more
