    On this third Sunday of Advent (Gaudete Sunday), we change from penitence to rejoicing for what is to come.

    John 1:6-8, 19-28 The shortest and darkest day and longest night of the year – the Winter Solstice – occurs this week. It is the onset of the winter season when the sun is the furthest from Earth and is often a time of darkness, doubt, and fear. And yet, Sunday is Gaudete Sunday - a beloved day ...read more

    This passage talks about misunderstanding developed by Joseph on Mary. Misunderstanding could have spoiled the plan of God. Many Godly people give place for Satan to use them and destroy the ministry. Real understanding of the Scripture brings joy to all

    If someone suffers from depression, hearing to “rejoice always,” may spur the reaction: “I don't like being told what to feel.

    Today is Gaudete Sunday. “Rejoice (Gaudete) in the Lord always,” we hear in our Second Reading. The United States was founded to give people the right to pursue happiness; the Gospel invites people to receive the gift of joy. J.O.Y. is Jesus, Others, You. In Philippians 4, St. Paul says ...read more

    Jesus isn't just like an ambulance rushing to our rescue, he's also like a resort shuttle bus, for he is coming to take us to paradise.

    Take a look at the two vehicles pictured on the screen. Which one is more like Jesus? The ambulance or the Disney-resort shuttle bus? On one hand since Jesus comes to rescue us from our sins and from eternal death, you could say that he’s like the ambulance. On the other hand Jesus ...read more

    Advent/Christmas Sermon, specifically on the subject of God's love.

    John 3:16, Romans 5:8 As we are in the final Advent Sunday before Christmas, it makes sense the topic is love. The gospel is rooted in love (John 3:16). In fact the whole Bible is; that's really all the Bible is, it's a love-letter from God. Tragically, some abuse it, weaponize it to ...read more
