    The final homily in the series: how God solves the REAL problem of society.

    Thursday of the 18th Week in Course Lumen Fidei A few years ago, the bishops of the U.S. issued a statement on relations with Jews that, without much thought, referred to the Mosaic covenant with the Jews as enduring forever, or some such language. My friend, E. Michael Jones, responded by ...read more

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Aug 13, 2014
     | 3,237 views

    Jesus gives us the power and strength to grow in virtue and spread the word of His salvation.

    The Introit of today’s Holy Sacrifice affirms that “God is in His holy place, the God who makes those of one mind to dwell in a house: He will give virtue and fortitude to His people.” Where is this holy place in which God dwells? Is it the same as the place where those who are ...read more

  • The Perils Of Contentment

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Aug 14, 2014
     | 2,958 views

    Contentment is a trap, because it keeps us from growing in ability and interior commitment.

    Recently we were viewing one of the original episodes of the Twilight Zone. A successful but elderly actor was ruminating over his long career, and his multiple marriages, and told his butler a secret. He said that in his whole life, he had only one length of time in which he had felt true ...read more

    St. Pius X 2014 Evangelii Gaudium “The joy of the gospel fills the hearts and lives of all who encounter Jesus.

     | 3,155 views

    In St. Augustine we see the paradigm of the sinner become saint.

    Feast of St. Augustine 2014 Evangelii Gaudium As we begin our reflections on Pope Francis’s exhortation, Evangelii Gaudium, we happily find the cosmic convergence of these greetings from St. Paul to the Corinthians and the words of St. Matthew’s Gospel with the annual commemoration of ...read more

  • Why Should We Not Also Enter Into Joy? Series

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Aug 30, 2014
     | 3,210 views

    Joy is found in following Jesus even though we know we are sinners.

    Thursday of 21st Week in Course Evangelii Gaudium The wisdom of the world that St. Paul is putting down today is foolishness to God. Listen to the advice shows. By and large, they try to help people advance in life by making more money, or gaining more popularity, or both. But these thoughts ...read more

    Being a Christian is the result of an encounter with Jesus Christ, giving life a new horizon and decisive direction.

    Thursday of 23rd Week in Course and Commemoration of 9/11 Today we remember the events of September 11, 2001. That day, called nine-eleven, the whole world changed.

  • The Householder: Hero Or Jerk?

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Sep 7, 2014
     | 2,829 views

    God truly is different in His reality than the gods of pagan religion, and so we too are different from their followers.

    Twenty-fifth Sunday in Course 2014 What Kind of Vineyard Owner? When you first heard the parable from today’s Gospel, perhaps when you were a child, what did you think of the householder, the vineyard owner? Was he mean, or generous? I suppose the hired hands in the original story would ...read more

  • Joy In Evangelization Series

     | 3,415 views

    "an evangelizer must never look like someone who has just come back from a funeral."

    Thursday of 24th Week in Course St. Joseph Cupertino Pharisees don’t come off very well in the Gospels. Pharisaic religion, though, was considered by the Jews to be the very summit of Jewish observance. After all, it applied to all its adherents the entire Law, even those clearly meant ...read more

  • Vanity Or Discipleship Series

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Sep 20, 2014
     | 3,902 views

    Herod Antipas was the embodiment of Quoheleth's maxim: nothing is new under the sun. But he had a chance to ask for living waters.

    Thursday of the 25th Week in Course 2014 Evangelium Gaudii St. Luke had an informant who had been in the court of Herod Antipas, the old rake and serial killer who had a morbid interest in ghosts, and a flirtation with Judaism and St. John, the cousin of Jesus. Luke records that he liked to ...read more

  • Encouragement And Consolation, But Not Comfort Series

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Jun 8, 2013
     | 4,371 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
     | 6,520 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

    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
     | 2,699 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
