  • Approaching The Communion Table Rightly

    Contributed by Derek Geldart on Feb 7, 2021
    based on 1 rating
     | 4,296 views

    In this sermon we are going to review Magdalene meeting Jesus at the tomb and suggest that the keys to taking the communion table in a worthy manner are turning away from a life of sin, praying for faith, seeking the master, hearing, and acknowledging His voice, and rejoicing for He is our Lord!

    Remembering the Lord’s Table Rightly John 20:10-18 Online Sermon: http://www.mckeesfamily.com/?page_id=3567 “So then, whoever eats the bread or drinks the cup of the Lord in an unworthy manner will be guilty of sinning against the body and blood of the Lord.” 1 Corinthians 11:27 How does ...read more

     | 4,163 views

    A response to claims that "evidence" that Jesus was married is “apt to send jolts through the world of biblical scholarship - and beyond.”

    Was Jesus Married? “Have nothing to do with godless myths and old wives’ tales; rather, train yourself to be godly.” 1 Timothy 4:7 “Always be prepared to give an answer to everyone who asks you to give the reason for the hope that you have.” 1 Peter 3:15 Popular characters tend to be used, ...read more

    The key to understanding Holy Week can be found in the ownership of the donkey

    Our Gospel reading describes Jesus’ Triumphal entry into Jerusalem - which happened at the beginning of one of the most momentous weeks in Antiquity – in AD 29. And as you walk towards Walsingham this Holy Week, you will have a lot of time to think about Holy Week And so I would ...read more

  • The Prophet Series

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Jul 8, 2009
     | 6,182 views

    There are prophets in every age speaking for God. In our age Pope Benedict has called us to look at Charity in Truth, and consider our responsibilities to the world economically.

    Fifteenth Sunday in Course The Prophet July 12, 2009 All over the temperate zone, fruit from the varieties of fig and sycamore are ripening now, and so the Church gives us a reading from the migrant worker, Amos, the reluctant prophet. I call him a migrant worker because he engaged in seasonal ...read more

    It's a great day to be a Catholic, and to begin fulfilling the promise of the Council through our worship and witness.

    Divine Mercy Sunday April 11, 2010 Our Sacred Liturgy–the Hermeneutic of Continuity This is a great era in history to be a Catholic. What? “A great era to be a Catholic?” Just now, when some of the dust has settled over the abusive histories of 2% of U.S. priests, we begin to ...read more

    The first gift of the Risen Christ was the power to forgive sins.

    Second Sunday of Easter April 11, 2010 Divine Mercy Two revolutionary phrases punctuate today’s Gospel. The one that commands the attention of most preachers is the one proclaimed by Thomas, who had doubted the Resurrection. The one who had said “I will not believe” unless his ...read more

  • One Of Us Series

    based on 1 rating
     | 5,671 views

    Even though angels are above humans, the human nature of Jesus was only temporarily below that of angels: Our salvation made His temporary humility necessary. That’s how much He loves you and me.

    One of Us (Hebrews 2:5-18) 1. Some people make a big deal out of small problems, some of which they should actually find amusing: “Today, for our 25th anniversary, my husband and I had dinner on a cruise ship, a dinner we had been planning for months. Upon boarding, I realized the expensive ...read more

  • Farewell Address -- Kissing Frogs

    Contributed by J Jeffrey Smead on Sep 15, 2018
    based on 4 ratings
     | 8,611 views

    Farewell Address at dinner by the Parish for my wife Lee and I. It has some humor yet I believe it touches the heart of who we are called to be in Christ. At the end I passed out 125 Red Wax Lips and and 125 signs that state "I Kiss Frogs" with a picture of a frog with big red lips.

    It just wouldn't feel right ... if I didn't begin with ... a story. And at the end of the story ... there is a little surprise ... that just might require a group picture. Well ... This short discourse is called ... "Kissing Frogs" Ever feel like a Frog? Frogs feel slow, ... low, ... ...read more

    Let's review our attitudes toward authority, particularly in the Church.

    21st Sunday in Course 2017: Ordinary Form Homily Is authority a divine gift? The story we read from Isaiah suggests that Shebna, the corrupt official whose name we learn in an earlier verse, was given his office by God, and cast out of that office by God. Then God raised up Eliakim ben Hilkiah to ...read more

     | 5,500 views

    The true path to peace lies through repentance and forgiveness of sins.

    18th Sunday After Pentecost 2015 Extraordinary Form Saint Matthew would have had a vivid recollection of the stories of that day in Galilee, because just down the street at the tax office, Matthew the sinner, the tax collector, was sitting. And as Jesus passed by, Matthew heard the most important ...read more

  • The Two Meanings Of "End"

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Nov 3, 2013
     | 2,305 views

    There are two meanings to "end," and as we reach the conclusion of a liturgical year, we must plan for both.

    One of the legends circulating that purports to prove the superiority of the new liturgical calendar and new lectionary is that in the Extraordinary Form, we hear Scripture readings that really belong to the beginning of the year, not the end. Let’s be honest. We aren’t talking about ...read more

     | 2,419 views

    The Spirit of God will help each of us, if we ask, to pray that the Will of God is always done on earth as it is in heaven, and to work together so that is accomplished in our day.

    Sixteenth Sunday in Course 2020 The Plague Year Homilies I suppose if you walked into our chapel to pray one day, and found somebody kneeling or bowing down and giving off profound and continuous moans, you’d either call the rectory or EMS. But let me just throw a few realities at you: the entire ...read more

    “You aren’t going to sacrifice me, are you, Dad?”

    Because of our three readings, today could be called the Sunday of the Three Mountains. "Take your son Isaac, your only one, whom you love, and go to the land of Moriah.” Moriah, as a girl's name, is of Hebrew origin, meaning "the hill country." The land of Moriah was a ...read more

    A hometown prophet is never accepted in his home

    We just heard that Jesus went home to Nazareth to visit the family. By then, he was well-known as a teacher and rabbi and healer. You would have expected there would be a parade or a celebration that the hometown boy was back home. Because of his fame as a preacher and healer, the people of ...read more

  • Feast Of The Transfiguration Of The Lord- Ascending The Spiritual Mountain

    Contributed by Paul Andrew on Jul 1, 2023
     | 1,154 views

    It happens, geographically, on a mountain top because the higher you climb the more you see, so it’s revelatory of a person’s advancement in the spiritual life.

    Even the highest moments of mystical union are meant to empower one to serve our neighbor. It’s about service. E.g. there is the story of a lady who went to a prayer group where everyone was sitting in silence. "When does the service begin?" she asked a man sitting near her. His answer: ...read more
