    One of the greatest secrets of the universe is in Jesus’ words, ‘It is more blessed to give than to receive.’ (Acts 20:35) Do we give extravagantly to God or our leftovers? Let’s look at Mary’s anointing of Jesus in John 12:1-8.

    Jesus suffered to give us an example of how to die unjustly, but He did not condone that murder.

    Monday of Holy Week Bruised Reeds The Gospel today tells us that the Messiah will not break the bruised reed or extinguish the smouldering wick. In other words, He understands our weakness and treats it with mercy, not vindictiveness. God is particularly respectful of our weak wills and frail ...read more

  • The Just Society And Why Judas Was Judged Harshly

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Apr 9, 2022
     | 861 views

    Somehow it seems very strange to ask Judas about the virtue of justice.

    Monday of Holy Week I don’t understand why people these days feel like they have to defend Judas from the accusations that he was a thief and a jerk. He was a thief and a jerk. Today’s Gospel shows him accusing Jesus of sinning against the virtue of justice, by allowing an expensive ointment to ...read more

The irate Ford was on the phone immediately to complain to the fund-raiser that he had been misunderstood. The fund-raiser replied that ...read more

    We all need gratitude because gratitude is one of those things that God has designed to keep us centered in our lives.

    Do you know the difference between gratitude and gratefulness? Gratitude is something inside of your heart. Gratefulness is something you do. Or thankfulness is something you do. When you have gratefulness or you have thankfulness, those are really exercises that build gratitude inside of hearts. ...read more

    An early reminder of the Jewish understanding of the dangers of wealth that has been hoarded for personal power.

    Friday of the 29th Week Integral 2025 I’ve run into a lot of people who think they know Scripture and will quote St. Paul by saying “money is the root of all evil.” If you paid attention to the first reading, you know that he, acting as Timothy’s mentor and supervisor, wrote “the love of money is ...read more

     | 397 views

    Don’t you imagine that Lazarus grew tired of the onlookers wanting to catch a glimpse of him? No doubt Lazarus would have loved his privacy away from prying eyes after being in the spotlight. How many times did he have to answer, “How do you feel?”

    Find John 12 with me. Worship is the one activity believers will do for all of eternity. Worship offers us these incredible benefits of peace and joy in our lives. Listen and learn from a story of incredible worship. As you listen, refuse to be Judas while embracing Mary. Oh, that there would be ...read more

     | 303 views

    Did Judas have to lose hope? On the third day after Jesus died, when the apostles gathered in the Upper Room, would there have been room for Judas Iscariot? He was, after all, one of the Twelve, chosen by Christ.

    Monday of Holy Week 2025 St. John the Evangelist probably had three or four decades or more to contemplate the life and fate of his fellow disciple, Judas Iscariot. He then wrote his clear and crisp description of the man’s moral character. The incident described Mary of Bethany ministering to the ...read more

    Worship doesn’t involve behaving as if nothing is wrong; it’s making sure everything is right—right with God and with one another. When our greatest fear is letting down our hair, perhaps our greatest sin is keeping it up.
