Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Sep 27, 2008

Celebration of St. Jerome September 30, 2008 There’s an unintentional irony in the use of these readings from Job and Psalm 88 on the memorial of St. Jerome.

The Walk!

Contributed by Tony Abram on Oct 3, 2008

(Luke 9:62 KJV) And Jesus said unto him, No man, having put his hand to the plow, and looking back, is fit for the kingdom of God. I believe that ...read more

Contributed by Daniel Habben on Jun 26, 2016

A Casual Disciple of Christ? Jesus teaches us that such a disciple is no disciple.
