An Ascension Gift Basket For You!

Contributed by Michael Otterstatter on May 22, 2023

Although the Bible doesn’t call it a “gift basket” it does use the word “gifts” in connection with our Savior’s ascension into heaven. Because of Jesus' ascension we receive many gifts. In Luke's account of the ascension we notice three.

We call them “gift baskets.” They might be for holidays like Christmas or Easter. Or they may be given for someone’s birthday, or perhaps an anniversary. Now as you think of gift baskets what makes them different from other gifts? Although perhaps you can think of many more things that make ...read more

The Nature Of The Resurrected Body

Contributed by Paul Andrew on Mar 1, 2018

The Bible tells us that when Jesus returns to earth, he will physically raise all those who have died, giving them back the bodies they lost at death.

Easter 3B The Gospel today makes us ask ourselves one fundamental question, an essential question in the Easter Season: how would you react if Jesus appeared to you? Would you recognize him? In the First Reading, Saint Peter tells the Jews that they didn’t recognize the author of life, their ...read more

We Know Jesus In The Breaking Of The Bread

Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Mar 31, 2018

The Church teaches that the Lord’s Day is hallowed by the celebration of Eucharist, and reception of Holy Communion.

Thursday of Easter Week 2018 Was it the way in which Jesus broke the bread and gave the cup? Was it more likely that when He did so, He said, “this is my body; this is my blood”? Whatever it was that made them recognize Jesus in the breaking of bread, the Church has not at any time failed to do ...read more
