    Thirty-Second Sunday In Ordinary Time, Year B., 32nd Sunday--Widow Stewardship

    Contributed by Paul Andrew on Nov 5, 2021
     | 1,400 views

    Like the widow in our Gospel today, she is our spiritual mentor standing there on the margins. Not afraid to trust an unknown future to a known God.

    On the first day of a Bible study at a suburban parish, the participants introduced themselves and described what ministries they participated in at the church. The group was filled with active, engaged parishioners. There were lectors, singers, pro-life volunteers, and many more. But one ...read more

    How does the donkey feature in the Palm Sunday account? Its story is interesting. We look at the prophetic Psalm 118; the entry Jesus made into Jerusalem; Isaac; and how that connects with His yet future Jerusalem entry at the Second Coming when He rides on the white horse not a donkey.

    WHAT WAS THE REAL REASON FOR PALM SUNDAY? AND THE DONKEY’S SPECIAL PART! A PALM SUNDAY MESSAGE Welcome again to all of you and we have a message today that shares some wonderful passages of scripture for this event known as Palm Sunday.

    My Spirit Rejoices

     | 19,698 views

    Who will say with Mary: The Lord has looked with favor on my lowliness. My soul magnifies the Lord, and my spirit rejoices in God my Savior.

    The song of Mary is the oldest Advent hymn. It is also the most passionate, the wildest, and one might almost say the most revolutionary Advent hymn that has ever been sung. This is not the gentle, tender, dreamy Mary as we often see her portrayed in paintings. The Mary who is speaking here is ...read more

    Advent-- a time to prepare for the coming of Christ into our world and lives-- points us to the Christmas miracle! "Christmas for millions is just the holiday season. Are we losing the sense of marvel at the Christmas miracle? Why, this is the most stu

    All over our nation, there is unmistakeable evidence that that there are those who want to bar Christ from Christmas.

    Bethlehem - House Of Bread

    "Bethlehem" means "house of bread", reminding us that Jesus is the Bread of Life.

    BETHLEHEM - THE HOUSE OF BREAD One of my favourite carols is "O little town of Bethlehem". Do you know what happened there? It’s where Jesus was born - a town not far from Jerusalem. And do you know what "Bethlehem" means? It’s "the house of bread". Jesus was born in Bethlehem - in a stable. ...read more

     | 4,230 views

    The story of the angels isn’t so much about a heavenly sing-song than God announcing the end to the war between himself and the human race.

    I’m sure we’re all fairly familiar with this scene—a group of shepherds are in the field quietly minding their own businesses when an angel appears to them. *The Angels* We don’t know the name of this angel. However, the only angel to be named in the gospels in connection with the birth of Jesus ...read more

    As I was bringing our children to church Wednesday night, they were taking note of all the homes that were lit up and decorated for Christmas.
