    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Oct 10, 2009
    based on 4 ratings

    The real problem with environmental movements is that they begin with the earth, not with God's image and earth's steward--human beings.

    March 8, 2010 Caritas in Veritate The role of prophet is not and should not be an easy one. Human beings are, because of our fallen condition, rebellious and resistant to change. When someone tells us we are on the wrong path, we reflexively become defensive. “Who is he to tell me what I ...read more

    The father only seems like a chump, taking back the wastrel son. But I am not the elder son, I am the prodigal, needing forgiveness.

    4th Sunday of Lent 2010 So we are ambassadors for Christ, God making his appeal through us. We beseech you on behalf of Christ, be reconciled to God. For our sake he made him to be sin who knew no sin, so that in him we might become the righteousness of God. If God had to join the rest of us in ...read more

     | 3,127 views

    Social problems must be solved on the most local level possible, just as Jesus did, but in solidarity with the community.

    March 22 2010 Caritas in Veritate Jesus bore witness to the Truth, because He is the Truth. Moreover, the Father bore witness to Jesus’s authenticity, through the miracles and through the divine voice that occasionally made itself heard at critical moments. So when Jesus came into conflict ...read more

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Mar 27, 2010
    based on 1 rating
     | 4,073 views

    One little act of evil just leads to more evil, not good; if we are to help humans develop, we must fact the twin problems of education and immigration

    Monday of Holy Week 2010 Caritas in Veritate The notion that doing one “little act of evil” in order to fulfill a good purpose is the original sin. So Judas, one of the early disciples and probably the earliest treasurer, raked off some of the collection plate money for something he ...read more

     | 3,791 views

    To understand our duty to ourselves and God, we must distinguish between seeking pleasure and seeking joy.

    Third Sunday in Advent Dec 12, 2010 Spirit of the Liturgy–Sunday Series The haunting strains of chant mode 1 set the admonition of St. Paul in the Introit of today’s Mass, in both the ordinary and extraordinary form.

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Dec 11, 2010
     | 3,513 views

    In form and spirit, there is good continuity between the building and worship of the Jewish synagogue and the Christian assembly and Eucharist

    December 13, 2010 Santa Lucia The Spirit of the Liturgy You just have to sympathize with Baalam the prophet. He was called by King Balak to come and curse this upstart band of nomads invading his country. He was called because he was rumored to be a prophet of the same “god” the ...read more

  • Orienting Ourselves Toward Christ Series

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Dec 18, 2010
     | 3,089 views

    From earliest times, the Church has worshiped in the direction of the east, toward the coming Christ, rather than toward Jerusalem.

    December 21, 2010 Monday of 4th week in Advent Spirit of the Liturgy Isaiah told Ahaz: “Ask a sign of the Lord YOUR God. Ask anything you like.” So Ahaz piously responded, “no, I will not ask for a sign. I will not put the Lord to the test.” And Isaiah, in obvious ...read more

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Dec 23, 2010
     | 3,326 views

    John's sacramental vision was translated into a church building with two centers--a center of the Word and a center of Eucharistic celebration

    Feast of St. John Dec 27 2010 Spirit of the Liturgy It is very appropriate to be preaching on the Spirit of the Liturgy on the Feast of St. John, because both the letters and the Gospel of John are so sacramental.

     | 3,816 views

    Jesus came to take away sin; the sin of the United States is a sin against life. Only prayer, fasting and clear, urgent action can move us in the right direction.

    Baptism of the Lord Jesus January 9, 2010 Today’s Gospel relates one of the big questions of the early Church. All four Gospels and the Acts of the Apostles relate at least once the story of the baptism of Jesus by John. John’s baptism was a baptism of repentance. Those who came to John were ...read more

    Second Sunday of Easter April 11, 2010 Divine Mercy Two revolutionary phrases punctuate today’s Gospel. The one that commands the attention of most preachers is the one proclaimed by Thomas, who had doubted the Resurrection. The one who had said “I will not believe” unless his ...read more
