    Seeking Crumbs From Jesus

    Today we see how the faith of a Canaanite woman found expression in the apparent rejection of her by Christ.

    Introductory Considerations 1. The scene before us seems very wrong. The reactions and words of Jesus are not what I would have expected them to be. If I were only able to share one story from His ministry with an unbeliever, surely this is not the one that I would chose, for the impression they ...read more

    In conversations with people there is one thing I hear too often, and that is: “Boy, the Church sure is in a sad state these days.” When I read the scriptures I sense that I am truly reading about God’s grace. Grace is God’s gift to us. Grace is, then,

    Rom. 11.1-2a, 29-32; Matt. 15:21-28 I. Opening A. In conversations with people there is one thing I hear too often, and that is: “Boy, the Church sure is in a sad state these days.” B.

    Looking at some of the things we can create with our mouths.

    Out of the mouth When is a parable not a parable? That question always comes to my mind when I read today’s passage from Matthew’s Gospel. We are told that Peter said to Jesus “Explain the parable to us”. But it does not matter how many times I read the passage, I cannot find a parable. Instead, I ...read more

    A Mothers Day sermon that shows how a mother who truely seeks the Lord, passes her values to her children

    Opening Joke: (Taken from a Calvin and Hobbs comic:) Calvin gives his mother a card. She begins to read: "I was going to buy a card with hearts of pink & red. But then I thought I’d rather spend the money on me instead. It’s awfully hard to buy things when one’s allowance is so small. So I ...read more

    Ever wonder why Jesus is silent before you? Today’s sermon will guide you to His answer.

    Hi, thank you for looking at this sermon. I hope it helps. Please do not say the sermon did not help you just because you did not like the style or could not use the entire message for your own needs. I have discovered a few souls automatically hit the ’did not help me’ button if the message they ...read more

    The faith of the Canaanite woman moved Jesus with compassion to meet her need - even though she wasn’t within his primary goal at that time

    Mt 15:21-28 The Canaanite Woman Have you ever wondered why St Matthew included this story about Jesus in his Gospel? As you know the first century Jews used to refer to non- Jews as Gentile dogs. And it used to grate me when Jesus said to the Canaanite woman "It is not right to take the ...read more

    The ’vaccine’ of faith that we received in our Baptism fights the ’virus’ of the world, the devil and our flesh.

    Grace, mercy and peace from God the Father, and from our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. Amen. Dear Brothers and Sisters in Christ: I wonder how Dr. Jonas Salk felt in the 1950’s.

    There are 3 types of faith. Knowing faith, Showing faith, adn saving faith. God desires for his children to have saving faith.

    Have you noticed that we’re hearing a lot about faith these days? It all started when our faith was shaken by the events of 9/11, and then bolstered by our national response. There was a call for everyone to return to prayer. The media claimed that it was his faith that helped President Bush get ...read more

    This sermon has a strong focus on "little-c catholic Christians," focusing their attention on the words of a Canaanitish woman which found their way into Western Christianity’s eucharistic liturgy.

    Second Sunday in Lent Matthew 15:21-28 If one were to pick episodes out of the Gospels in order to introduce Jesus to someone who does not know him, I’ll bet that the gospel lesson appointed for today is exactly the one they would never pick. There is, of course, much in the Bible that would ...read more
