Attaining True Human Dignity Series

Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Dec 18, 2021

During this Christmas season, it makes sense that we should follow Mary’s prophetic declaration, “all generations will call me blessed”, by praying her prayer, the Magnificat, and asking God to give us the same spirit of obedience she had.

December 22 The Magnificat Today's vesper antiphon speaks to Jesus as the "King of all the nations, the only joy of every human heart." One of the now "traditional" movies lots of people see each Christmas is one set in the middle of the last century. It's called ...read more

Hope For A New Year Series

Contributed by Michael Mays on Apr 26, 2022

I. Intro A. There is a poignant scene in Mel Gibson’s The Passion of the Christ, where Jesus is carrying His cross down the Via Dolorosa.

No, It's Not Fair, But Bear With It In Christ

Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Sep 28, 2023

Forget the old song that asks “how can it be wrong when it feels so right?” That’s unmitigated baloney. Your mind must rule your emotions, not vice-versa.

Twenty-Sixth Sunday in Course 2023 Have you or anyone you know ever said that some fine or traffic ticket or concert ticket price or something else “isn’t fair”? I suspect that a show of hands would involve almost everyone who is here today. That cry, “it’s not fair!” is one of the most common ...read more

An Open Door

Contributed by Joey Nelson on Jun 10, 2002

The apostle Paul would call this “An Open Door.” He refers to this thought in his first letter to the Corinthians. Today, we will be equipped in how to know a new opportunity or an open door when we see it and how to make a proper decision.
