  • The Embodiment Of God's Unremitting Love Series

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Jul 18, 2009
    based on 3 ratings
     | 4,960 views

    Jesus’s preaching differed from that of Jonah because Jonah prophesied judgement and vengeance, while Jesus embodied God’s unremitting love.

    Monday of 16th Week in Course 20 July 2009 Caritas in Veritate Before continuing a commentary on the papal encyclical Love in Truth, let me spend a moment on this analogy to Jonah. Jesus is saying to these Jewish non-believers, in effect, “Jonah eventually got it, and you guys will never get it.” ...read more

    What we do when we celebrate Eucharist is to have a foretaste of what we will experience when we reunite in the kingdom of God.

    March 30, 2009 Sacramentum Caritatis Recently this series focused for a moment on the distinction between hating sin and judging evil actions on the one hand, and loving sinners and welcoming them into the Church on the other. These two dramas from the Old and New Testament, these two rescues, ...read more

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Mar 28, 2009
     | 2,563 views

    As Moses lifted up the healing serpent, so the Jews lifted up Christ, the healer, on the cross, so that we might take him and be transformed.

    April 4, 2006 Tuesday of 5th week in Lent If we read John’s Gospel from start to finish, one of the impressions we get over and over again is that Jesus was surrounded by idiots and incompetents. It seems like every page turn brings the words “they did not understand.” But there is nothing new ...read more

  • The Eucharist And The Mother Of God Series

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Apr 4, 2009
     | 4,413 views

    The self-gift of Mary of Bethany echoes the lifelong gift of Mary of Nazareth, who was associated with Jesus, her Son, in all His mysteries, especially His sacrificial death.

    April 6, 2009 Sacramentum Caritatis Eucharist and the Mother of God The Blessed Virgin Mary, too, is the servant of the Lord. In fact, her assent to the angelic messenger and her only hymn in Luke proclaim her self-identity: handmaid of the Lord. The contrast between Mary of Bethany, the one ...read more

    Jesus lived and died to create the true Israel of God.

    Tuesday of Holy Week 7 April 2009 Israel was not made a holy nation by God for its own benefit. From the beginning, this nomadic tribe was to be a place of true worship of the one God. This people was called to be a light to the nations, so that all would be attracted to right worship, and so ...read more

    Divine Mercy Sunday is an opportunity to examine our attitudes and actions in response to Jesus’s Divine Rescue.

    Sunday of Divine Mercy 19 April 2009 On April 30, 2000, Pope John Paul established this Sunday as the Feast of Divine Mercy. In the image of Christ shown to St. Faustina in her vision, two rays of divine mercy come from the heart of Christ. In John’s Gospel we proclaim that blood and water ...read more

  • Beauty And Truth In Worship Series

    based on 3 ratings
     | 3,208 views

    Our worship in the Eucharist must bring together what we believe with the way we pray, and reflect both Ultimate Truth and Beauty.

    April 13, 2009 Sacramentum Caritatis As we sit in the warm glow of Resurrection Day, we are invited to reflect on the connection between what we believe and how we pray. We believe that Jesus rose from the dead, that He conquered sin and death, and that we who eat the Flesh of the Son of Man and ...read more

  • A Short Catechism

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Apr 11, 2009
     | 2,143 views

    We expand the meaning of "believe and be baptized, and you will receive the gift of the Holy Spirit."

    Tuesday in Easter Week If you ever wished for a very short Catechism, Peter gives it to you today. What must you do to be saved: "Repent, and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of your sins; and you shall receive the gift of the Holy Spirit. 39 For the ...read more

  • Jesus Exemplifies Charity In Truth Series

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Aug 2, 2009
     | 4,008 views

    Charity in truth is not something we summon up from ourselves; it is a divine gift essential for true human development

    Monday of 18th Week in Course Caritas in Veritate The occasion for Jesus’ withdrawal to a “lonely place” was the news that John the Baptist, his relative and mentor, had been murdered by Herod. Jesus was no coward, so we should think that this withdrawal was to achieve some time for His humanity ...read more

  • Charity, Truth And Health Care Series

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Aug 9, 2009
    based on 3 ratings
     | 3,910 views

    Charity in truth demands that we consider two moral criteria: justice and the common good. But truth must inform both.

    Monday of 19th Week in Course August 10, 2009 Caritas in Veritate “Die to yourself” is a phrase that is no more popular today than in the first century. Jesus showed the way to this manifestation of charity in truth, by living for others during his earthly existence, and by dying on the cross so ...read more

  • Is This His Body? Series

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Aug 9, 2009
    based on 7 ratings
     | 6,045 views

    Jesus claimed that the bread of Life is his body, and that his body is true food and his blood true drink. We look at three objections to this teaching.

    Is This His Body? 19th Sunday in Course If you visit the ruins of the town of Capernaum–and I truly hope you bite the financial bullet and go on pilgrimage to the Holy Land with a Christian guide–you can see what is left of the synagogue built where Jesus preached the vital sermon on the Bread of ...read more

  • Inconveniencing Ourselves For The Kingdom Series

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Aug 15, 2009
     | 3,742 views

    As the young man in the Gospel was challenged to be inconvenienced to follow Christ, so the challenge to facilitate human development may inconvenience us.

    August 17, 2009 Caritas in Veritate The sure path to eternal life, to enjoying the presence of God continually even before we die, is to imitate Jesus and Mary. They–and Jesus, the source of grace, first of all–are the great examples of bringing the Good that is God into contact with a world that ...read more

    The first gift of the Risen Christ was the power to forgive sins.

    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

  • Finance In An Ethical Way Series

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Apr 10, 2010
     | 3,075 views

    We must manifest our conversion by managing our financial systems so as to protect the most vulnerable and strive for the general good.

    Monday of Second Week in Easter April 12, 2010 The call to be born from above is a call to a repentance and revolution internal to the person. Once we accept the invitation to be one with the Father and the Son, the Holy Spirit begins to transform us. Maybe this church won’t experience an ...read more

  • No Development Without God Series

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Apr 17, 2010
    based on 3 ratings
     | 2,499 views

    Like Jesus and Stephen, Pope Benedict's words are rejected by a world that cannot admit its need to be changed from within.

    April 19, 2010 Caritas in Veritate The secular world doesn’t get it. In fact, the leaders of society have rarely gotten it in any age, because they don’t understand what people really want. In New Testament times, they resisted the change urged by the Lord Jesus and the Holy Spirit ...read more
