  • We Must Serve The Poor Series

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Dec 25, 2016
    based on 1 rating
     | 4,263 views

    The church ministered to the poor. If we lose that character, we are no longer the true church.

    Fifth Day of the Christmas Octave 2016 Joy of the Gospel St. John the Evangelist is the apostle and evangelist of love, but he can write in very black-and-white manners. In his first epistle his language is stark: if you obey the law to love your brother you are walking as Jesus did. If you say ...read more

  • "The Intersection Of Faith And Doubt"

    Contributed by David Henderson on Dec 29, 2016
     | 7,903 views

    We know from previous passages of scripture that Jesus had given them the authority to heal and they had been successful many times. But this time they seem to be in over their heads. They pray and nothing happens.

    "The Intersection of Faith and Doubt" Mark 9:14-24 We find in the scripture that nearly 40 times Jesus performed an act of healing. Water to wine. Fed 5000 without very little food. He healed the blind, the deaf; the lame. And the reason was simple: it was never just about the healing…it was ...read more

  • How Much Must We Do? Series

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Dec 30, 2016
     | 5,681 views

    It’s ironic that when dealing with these positive commandments, we don’t ever come to a point when we can say, “I have fulfilled them.”

    Thursday before Epiphany 2017 Joy of the Gospel St. John teaches us today in both Epistle and Gospel: “By this we know love, that [Jesus] laid down his life for us; and we ought to lay down our lives for the brethren. But if any one has the world's goods and sees his brother in need, yet ...read more

  • The Road To Easter Runs Through A Cemetery

    Contributed by Mari Larson on Apr 23, 2014
     | 4,929 views

    Good Friday was a necessary part of the Easter journey. The sermon shares a Leonard Sweet story about bell-ringing. (Each person who came to worship received a bell as they entered.)

    They thought it was over. Jesus was dead and buried. The religious folks sighed with satisfaction. His followers wept in grief. But they were wrong! They were all wrong! From this side of Easter, we can call Friday “Good” because we know that it was not over, all had not been ...read more

     | 3,200 views

    We must not marvel that we suffer pain and persecution when we carry the message of Christ to our culture.

    Thursday of the 14th Week in Course Lumen Fidei Pop singers and bands engage in a ritual–they all do. There’s a warmup act, usually a second or third rate band. It’s their Introit and Gloria, except the praise is of the human act to follow. There’s audience ...read more

     | 3,042 views

    We make the sign of the cross in our worship to show the embrace of the Blessed Trinity around our persons and our community.

    Monday of 12th Week in Course June 20, 2011 the Spirit of the Liturgy Abraham, first called Abram, is named as our father in faith in the Roman Canon. What that means as we look back on him from the perspective of Jesus is that he offered himself as a gift to God more than he offered his sheep ...read more

  • Year Of Faith And Evangelization Series

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Jul 14, 2012
    based on 1 rating
     | 4,904 views

    Despite the many forces arrayed against the Church's mission, we must follow the Gospel command to bring the Word of God to everyone.

    Monday of 15th Week in Course July 16, 2012 Our Lady of Mt Carmel The Holy Father has announced the year of faith, to begin later this year with the next Synod of Bishops, and he has designated it as a time to dedicate ourselves to the New Evangelization. This may seem untimely. After all, the ...read more

     | 5,383 views

    Who was the real Jesus and what did He mean?

    This being good Friday we thought we might jump ahead and explain some of the things we have learned over the years. For example most people think that by reading a passage of Scripture they understand what they have read. In fact there are more than simply a few words that we read. Each thought is ...read more

  • Holiness And Controversy

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Aug 6, 2018
     | 3,134 views

    The life of St Teresa Benedicta of the Cross is inspirational but off-putting to some.

    St. Teresa Benedicta of the Cross August 9, 2018 We are the people of the New Covenant, the covenant made in the blood of our Lord, Jesus Christ. Israel was brought out of Egypt by the power of God. He then gave them the Old Covenant made in the blood of lambs and oxen, written on stone in the Ten ...read more

  • We Share In Christ's Pain On The Cross

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Aug 28, 2025
     | 135 views

    when someone is murdered, it catches all of us up short, and when the violence is carried out on children, especially as they are praying on the second day of school, no words can ever suffice to bring us back to anything like normalcy.

    Twenty-second Sunday in Course 2025 Humility, yes. I suspect that many preachers in this country have been humbled by the recent events at a Catholic church and school in Minneapolis last week. Typically we work hard on a homily for some days and often feel proud of our work when we come to the ...read more

  • Lord Please Free Us From The Machine That Turns Itself Off Series

    In ways we do not understand, Our Lord will help us and bring to naught the plans of the murder coalition.

    Feast of the Holy Innocents 2020 I first saw one of these toys back in the late 1950s when my uncle brought it to Christmas dinner. It’s been re-invented in the last decade and it’s a robot parallel to modern Western society. In its present incarnation, it’s a black plastic box with a switch on ...read more

  • Everyone Who Asks Receives? Really? Series

     | 1,499 views

    “We should believe in the name of his Son Jesus Christ and love one another, just as he has commanded us.” That’s not a suggestion. That’s a demand .

    Monday of Epiphany Week 2020 It’s a good idea to read St. John’s words in this first letter perhaps every week of our lives, because in it we find the key to happiness and fulfillment. John says “we receive from [God] whatever we ask.” Hmm, that’s interesting. And we recall that Jesus Himself said ...read more

    Jesus is coming don't be like some of those folks in Thessalonica they were idle.

    “Do Not Be Idle” 2 Thessalonians 3:6-13 1. Jesus is coming - am I ready?" • It’s the most important question that must be answered • The answer is either yes I am, I am not sure, an absolute no. • To be ready, of course, requires salvation.

     | 3,261 views

    January 1, 2020

    Today on January 1st, it’s all about sanctifying time. Psalm 90:12 says, “Lord, teach us to number our days, that we may gain wisdom of heart.” Romans 13: You know what time it is, how it is now the moment for you to wake from sleep. For salvation is nearer to us now than when we became ...read more
