  • Not Good For Man To Be Alone Series

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Mar 13, 2010
     | 2,620 views

    To remain whole, to be together with others, we must be grounded in the Creator of all things.

    March 15 2010 Caritas in Veritate Monday of 4th Week of Lent If you look carefully at the reading from the wonderful final chapters of Isaiah today, you can be struck by the parallel to the Holy Father’s encyclical. What we see in Isaiah is a vision of a human economy developed to its full ...read more

  • Rejoice Jerusalem

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Mar 13, 2010
    based on 1 rating
     | 3,102 views

    To receive the full power of the Scriptures, we need to celebrate with the "little texts" of the Mass.

    Lent 4th Sunday 2010 “The Other Scriptures” “Rejoice, Jerusalem, and assemble together, all you who love her. Rejoice with great joy, all you who were mournful: that you may exult and be satisfied by the sweet milk of your consolation.” The words of the Introit of ...read more

  • Subsidiarity And Human Development Series

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Mar 20, 2010
     | 3,060 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

  • Education, Immigration, Development And The Gospel Series

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Mar 27, 2010
    based on 1 rating
     | 3,997 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

  • A Praying Family Or A Dysfunctional One? Series

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on May 18, 2013
     | 3,791 views

    Does your family work, learn and pray together, or as disconnected individuals?

    Monday of 7th Week in Course 20 May 20213 Gaudium et Spes The incident in today’s Gospel may be regarded as symbolic of what has come to be called a dysfunctional family. Here the son appears to be suffering from a diabolically caused autism or seizure disorder, and the father is seen as ...read more

  • Human Family, Divine Family Series

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on May 21, 2013
     | 7,387 views

    History teaches us that God's loving kindness comes from His essence--His Trinitarian family--and to that we must attract the whole human family.

    Trinity Sunday 2013 Just one week ago, our Archbishop Gustavo announced plans for our Catholic community here in South Texas. It is fitting that on this Trinity Sunday, when we celebrate the core mystery of our religion, we contemplate the third core value, “unity.” The text reads: ...read more

  • Memorial Day: The Search For Peace Series

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on May 25, 2013
     | 3,930 views

    Peace is more than the mere absence of war; it involves the pursuit of love

    Memorial Day 2013 Monday of 8th Week in Course Gaudium et Spes The rich young man, we read here, responded to the challenge of Jesus by walking away. It says his “face fell.” That doesn’t capture the full emotional meaning of the Greek text. It uses the word stygnasas. The ...read more

  • Martyr-Witnesses To The Truth About Human Sexuality Series

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Jun 1, 2013
     | 2,881 views

    It is not an act of love to tell those who are committing grave sin that their actions are OK. We must respect human dignity like the Ugandan martyrs.

    Monday of 9th Week in Course 2013 Gaudium et Spes The setting of the Book of Tobit, one of the inspired books of Scripture that came to us only in Greek, is of an exiled family in a land with an oppressive government, one that enforced laws prohibiting certain practices of the Jewish faith. The ...read more

  • Encouragement And Consolation, But Not Comfort Series

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Jun 8, 2013
     | 4,278 views

    God gives us abundant consolations in our ministry, but does not grant us the privilege to be comfortable.

    The God of Consolation Monday of Tenth Week in Course 2013 St. Paul seems almost obsessed in today’s reading with the word paraklesis. In seven verses he uses some form of the word at least nine times. Paul is certainly trying to tell the Corinthians, and us, something ...read more

  • A Farewell Homily

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Jun 8, 2013
     | 6,380 views

    Always remember that the task of the Church is to attract non-believers to Jesus Christ in the Church.

    Tenth Sunday in Ordinary Time 2013 “farewell” In the pre-Christian world, there was an inchoate understanding of human life after earthly death. The Hebrew’s picture of human existence in the nether world was one of gloom, shadow, even an inability to praise God. I think that the young man ...read more

  • Sing To The Lord A New/Old Song Series

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Jun 15, 2013
     | 2,895 views

    The Liturgy, especially the Mass, is a point of contact between the human and divine

    Monday of 11th Week in Course 2013 Sacrosanctum Concilium 1 “O sing to the LORD a new song, for he has done marvelous things! His right hand and his holy arm have gotten him victory. Make a joyful noise to the LORD, all the earth; break forth into joyous song and sing praises!” The ...read more

  • The Mass And Martyrdom Series

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Jun 22, 2013
     | 3,059 views

    The fortnight for religious freedom is a time to get back to basics and understand our history, our worship, and our mission to the world

    June 24, 2013 Sacrosanctum Concilium Today we celebrate, with a solemnity, one of the three critical birthdays recognized by the Church. These nativities are those of Jesus–of course–the Blessed Virgin Mary, and now St. John the Baptist. I’ve noted in other homilies that the ...read more

  • The True Spirit Of Independence

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Jun 28, 2013
     | 2,619 views

    We don't need American Exceptionalism as much as Jesus Exceptionalism, that liberates the whole human person.

    Over the last few years I have heard a lot of people talking about “American Exceptionalism.” That is a theme of commentators like Rush Limbaugh and Sean Hannity, but it is also something that many politicians on the left are drawn to–they want to make America exceptional by the ...read more

  • The Presence Of Christ And The Bridal Dialogue Series

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Jun 29, 2013
     | 2,568 views

    Liturgy is a celebration of the presence of God in our midst, and we respond by participating in the dialogue between the Bride and the Bridegroom

    Monday of the 13th Week in Course Sacrosanctum Concilium The presence of the Lord changes everything. We see this today when we recall the presence of God to Abraham on the eve of the destruction of Sodom and Gomorrah, a catastrophe caused by their widespread acceptance of sexual abuse. But for ...read more

  • The Church, A Place Of Beauty, Goodness, Truth Series

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Jul 5, 2013
    based on 1 rating
     | 5,111 views

    We need to understand both meanings of church, and how the beauty found in a church can attract unbelievers to Christ.

    Monday of 14th Week in Course Sacrosanctum Concilium Jacob, following in the steps of his grandfather Abraham, was careful as he moved through the land of Canaan to identify special places of the divine presence. One of these is Bethel, which means “house of God.” There Jacob had a ...read more
