Faith is critical, but it was not enough in the life of Mary, and it is not enough in our own life. What is needed is the obedience of faith.
Fourth Sunday in Advent 2014 My most intense memory of today’s Gospel–which unlike the rest of this year is taken from the writings of St. Luke–is of singing it at a Mass celebrated where the angel appeared to Mary. It was in Nazareth, in 2005, with a pilgrimage group. The ...read more

Motherhood for Mary was a painful privilege. It was a privilege for her to be chosen to bear the Son of God, but so very painful to have to witness his death.
A Painful Privilege I Thessalonians 5:16-24 Luke 1:46-55 Advent 3 December 11, 2005 I read a very interesting comment about motherhood the other day. One commentator said that motherhood is a painful privilege. I guess that it is easy for me to say, being a man, but I like that. A painful ...read more

Following the example of Joseph we can see how a dream becomes a reality
I believe each one of us has a dream placed in our hearts, not the kind of dream like winning the lottery which is really the desire to escape our present circumstances. I am talking about a vision deep down inside that speaks to the very soul. The thing we were born to do, that draws from ...read more

After the death of Jacob, the brothers of Joseph expected judgment but received grace instead.
Intro. Again, I am looking at the life of Joseph from a practical side, not merely a type, though the pictures of Christ and God are so strong, that we cannot help but see the truths. Jacob changed, and that change apparently strengthened his son that was about to face the ultimate storm. ...read more

Then a new king, who did not know about Joseph, came to power in Egypt.
February 01, 2025 Last week we concluded Genesis with Joseph’s death at 110. By that time his family had been living in Egypt for 70 years. Much like Genesis, there are things in Exodus that God has chosen to leave out – things not important to the story he is trying to tell. In the first ...read more

When Jesus called Mary’s name that first Easter morning, it made a tremendous impact on her life. Jesus still calls our name and it ought to impact our lives in a similar way.
As we go through life, many different people call our name. And it’s amazing to me just how many different messages that can be conveyed to us, depending on just how people call our name: • When we’re growing up, our parents call our name. Sometimes that is done in a very calm, gentle, loving ...read more
