    Here we are healed of sin, nourished with the Eucharist, anointed for service and mission, and ultimately commended into the hands of the Father when we finish our earthly journey.

    Tuesday of the First Week in Lent 2020 The Way Out of the Hole We’re In As we continue in this first week our Lenten journey, our informal pre-Easter retreat, it’s good to consider just where we are, or would be, without Jesus Christ and His Church.

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Mar 4, 2025
     | 419 views

    Lent is a time in which we engage our interior self with its brokenness, weakness and intentional wrongdoing. We are all sinners, but we are sinners endeavoring to become saints, by our faith and practice.

He asked the minister if he believed that Martin Luther had made any big mistakes setting up a parallel Christian church. The minister candidly admitted that he thought Luther ...read more

     | 2,147 views

    Everything that Jesus does, or that people do to Jesus, gives Him an opportunity to teach or preach to us hard-skulled folks.

    Tuesday of the 28th Week in Course 2020 Wash Up! I’m pretty certain that somewhere in this wide Catholic world there is a smart-Alec youngster who hears this Gospel and mouths off to mom: “Jesus didn’t wash up before dinner.

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Mar 1, 2025
     | 249 views

    We can stand under Gis mystery, His greatness, His uniqueness, and admire or adore Him. That’s the extent of our “understanding,” to stand beneath his Being.

    Monday of the Eighth Week in Course 2025 This is one of those liturgical weeks that gets started in one direction and then heads off in another mid-week. Of course, I’m talking about Wednesday as the turn-around day, Ash Wednesday, which begins the universally recognized time of Lent. So we should ...read more

    based on 1 rating
     | 6,441 views

    Notice these words, “And of some have compassion MAKING A DIFFERENCE…”

    Some can live their entire life and never make any difference in a positive way. For example, God can leave some people on this earth for 90 or 100 years, and when they die, their life has made very little DIFFERENCE! Illus: God let Methuselah live on this earth for 969 years, and the only thing ...read more

    Monday of 1st Week in Lent 2013 Gaudium et Spes You Shall Love Your Neighbor One of the great heresies of modern time is a subtle one based on the notion of sola fide or “faith alone.” That was Martin Luther’s great mistake, of course. The only place in the NT where we read ...read more

    AT THE FEET OF JESUS. John 12:1-8. It has been remarked as remarkable that on three occasions when we meet Mary of Bethany in the Scriptures, she is found at the feet of Jesus. In Luke 10:39 she is sitting at the feet of Jesus. In John 11:32 Mary is prostrated at His feet. In John 12:3 she is ...read more
