    Contributed by Paul Andrew on Jan 20, 2025
     | 670 views

    Heaven is not just up, but in.

    The 212-area code is Manhattan, and it’s a status symbol as one of the most recognizable area codes in the United States. It’s considered more authentic than the more recent 646, 332 or 917 area codes for Manhattan. With a 212 Manhattan phone number, you’re sure to turn some heads, stand out from ...read more

    Palm Sunday, a day where we celebrate Jesus’ triumphant entry into Jerusalem. It’s a day filled with joy, but beneath the shouts of joy, beneath the praise and worship, there was something deeper going on—a deep, heartfelt sorrow in the heart of Jesus.

    Go! And Weep for the Lost: A Palm Sunday Call to Action Introduction: Today is Palm Sunday, a day where we celebrate Jesus’ triumphant entry into Jerusalem. It’s a day filled with joy, with crowds shouting “Hosanna! Blessed is He who comes in the name of the Lord!” It’s a day of excitement, as ...read more

    In the spirit of allegory

    They caught one hundred fifty-three large fish. Why was the actual number mentioned, does it mean something? Theories abound, with most saying it’s an allegorical number. For example, St. Jerome saw 153 as representing all the known fish species which represents the catholicity or universality ...read more

    Once you accept the cup. Then your path to glory is by your service.

    Servant leadership. Blah-blah-blah. and so on; and so forth.

    Twenty-Sixth Sunday In Ordinary Time, Year B: "When In Doubt, Cut It Out.”

    Contributed by Paul Andrew on Aug 15, 2024
     | 798 views

    It is not hyperbole to say that it is better to enter heaven maimed [one-armed, one-footed, and one-eyed] than to enter hell whole. That is literally true.

    “When Jesus exaggerated” is a book title, and there are countless articles on how Jesus uses exaggeration and hyperbole for effect, like we hear this Sunday; to literally cut off your hand or foot or gouge-out your eyes because then you won’t sin with them.1 However, “it is not hyperbole to say ...read more

    The principle of “No one is good but God alone

    Jesus knew He was God and said so: He was accused of being God at his trial. Jesus revealed his divinity by miracles, and by His Resurrection, but he never says to the crowds, “Hey, everyone, I’m God.” In today’s Gospel, he goes undercover. To illustrate: In the TV show, Undercover Boss, a ...read more

    Listening With Love

     | 2,029 views

    Sermon for Advent 4, Year A. Sermon contrasts how Joseph could have treated Mary and how he actually acted toward her. Mary has a story (and thus Jesus) because Joseph listened with love and showed mercy.

    Preparing for 2020: Listening with Love I feel for Joseph. Not only because he’s often overlooked, but in some ways I understand what it’s like to be Joseph. In 1994 I found a new level of solidarity with Joseph. The children’s director concluded that the pastor’s grandson didn’t need a “speaking” ...read more
