    The True Elastic Thinker

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Mar 30, 2018
     | 2,840 views

    Our Lord spent His life teaching us to abandon our scripted behavior, our pursuit of pleasure for its own sake, our yearning for honor from others, for control over others.

    Good Friday 2018 Scripted or Elastic When returning home yesterday from our Holy Thursday Liturgy, the first act in this awesome drama of the Triduum, I heard a discussion with an author about the need to develop our innate ability to do “elastic thinking.” The idea is that the world is changing ...read more

    Sermon for Ecumenical Worship Service

    Perhaps it’s because my childhood was spent on a small farm just outside a small town. My family belonged to a small church in a sea of small churches, 12 of them as I recall, half of which were Lutheran. And so, in my neighborhood, Kevin, Brian, and Karla, across the street, were Methodist. ...read more

    We Witness Despite Persecution And Exile Series

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Sep 8, 2018
     | 3,172 views

    Preaching and living a lifestyle conditioned by the precepts of the Gospel is not a particularly popular path, and may get you shunned, even exiled.

    Thursday of 23rd Week in Course 2018 St. John Chrysostom Today I am celebrating the sixteenth anniversary of the ordination of the diaconate class of 2002, and therefore my own ordination. As a preacher, it’s particularly happy to be ordained on the feast of St. John Chrysostom, who is the patron ...read more

    Excommunicate The Lot Series

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Jul 27, 2013
     | 3,060 views

    Why can't we separate the sinners--especially public sinners--from the good guys?

    Saturday of 16th Week in Course 2013 “Excommunicate the Lot?” “Let both grow together until the harvest; and at harvest time I will tell the reapers, Gather the weeds first and bind them in bundles to be burned, but gather the wheat into my barn.” Let’s get the ...read more

    Attitudes Of Change And The Word Of God Series

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Oct 15, 2016
     | 4,389 views

    The Word of God can be unifying, but it can also divide, so we need to ask God what attitudes we must change and for the grace to make that change.

    Thursday of the 28th Week in Course 2016 Joy of the Gospel The beautiful prayer that St. Paul gives us in his letter to the Ephesians is our first reading today, but it seems to contrast with the words of Jesus we find in the Gospel. Paul is asking us to allow Christ to dwell in our hearts through ...read more

     | 3,608 views

    'A spirit-filled evangelization is one guided by the Holy Spirit, for he is the soul of the Church called to proclaim the Gospel.'

    Thursday of 6th Week of Easter 2017 Joy of the Gospel Today’s reading from Acts is one of those gems of the Bible that gives evidence for its historicity. Aquila and Priscilla were probably already Christians when they came to Corinth, about AD 49. They were caught up in the dragnet Emperor ...read more

    the Maxima Presence

    Father Phillip Bloom notes that in the book, "The Mass: Four Encounters with Jesus That Will Change Your Life," the four “presences” of Jesus are described: in the community, the Word, the priest and the Eucharist. Although each presence of Jesus is vital, this Sunday we focus on the ...read more

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Apr 6, 2019
     | 2,735 views

    Our task in our families is to become saints ourselves and to nurture our loved ones to sainthood.

    Tuesday of 5th Week in Lent 2019 St. Waltrude A number of years ago I was privileged to teach a speech course to some deacons in training, and I asked them to speak for a few minutes on their thoughts on the realization that they were mortal–that the life they now lead would end. I think I said ...read more

    God has moved powerfully in human history and in our lives. In response, we are invited to simply trust in what God has already done.

    Romans 1:1-17 “Simple Trust” INTRODUCTION There are times when we are forced to go to the very core of our being in order to rediscover ore reaffirm who we are as individuals. The young man in this video reaffirmed that he was a “good” boy and that he wasn’t ...read more

    Thursday of Third Week in Lent 2016 Joy of the Gospel We weak humans need continual reminders that things are not all rosy, that we are living in the midst of a struggle against the forces of evil.

     | 2,807 views

    ‘Dialogue and friendship with the children of Israel are part of the life of Jesus’ disciples.'

    Thursday of Easter Week 2017 Joy of the Gospel I have often been amazed as I have spent the last three years reflecting on Pope Francis’s encyclical Joy of the Gospel, how the Thursday Scriptures mesh so well with the various themes the Holy Father visits. Today he is writing about our ...read more

    The abortion supporter treats the unborn child with less respect than they would demand for a puppy.

    Thursday of Fifth Week in Course Joy of the Gospel This Gospel is one for the thoughtless atheist to seize and wring out for every drop of abuse of the Catholic truth. It looks on the surface like Jesus sinning. He is verbally abusing this poor pagan woman, whose only offense is to ask for ...read more

    A sermon for the start of Lent 2021

    I think this is the point where I am supposed to talk about Lent being a penitential time, and time for giving things up, but that seems patent nonsense in 2021. In the last eleven months we have given up more than we ever wished for longer than we would have wished. And we have lost some people ...read more

    In our Lord’s Prayer, we beseech God not to lead us into temptation. Can he? Does he?

    Scripture Reading: Matthew 6:7-15 And when you pray, do not keep on babbling like pagans, for they think they will be heard because of their many words. Do not be like them, for your Father knows what you need before you ask him. “This, then, is how you should pray: “‘Our Father in heaven, hallowed ...read more
