    Contributed by Paul Andrew on Mar 30, 2020
     | 2,257 views

    Jesus really did rise from the dead and come back to harass the very people who betrayed him." …Harass your heart, that is, if you are withholding forgiveness from someone.

    A sermon for Ash Wednesday - for a UK congregation

    Joel 2:1-2 & 12-17 John 8:1-11 I’m beginning, totally unsuitably for Lent, with an expression of pride. I’m very proud of my collection of the complete set of Carry On films - it’s the earthy British humour of the 1960s and 1970s at its best (or worst, depending upon your point ...read more

     | 5,442 views

    Jesus learned in his human nature that for God, all things are possible, through the words and example of his mother, Mary.

    Monday of 7th Week in Course Verbum Domini I find myself in today’s Gospel; perhaps many of us do. Perhaps it’s because so many of us have been parents of teenagers, that human pupa stage that seems designed to enrage adults. In today’s Gospel, the youngster is seen as actually ...read more

    The Unity Of The Whole Of Scripture Series

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Mar 16, 2012
     | 4,082 views

    We can use the story of the finding of Jesus in the Temple to illustrate how the Scripture is best read as a whole, with the New Testament's meaning being fleshed out by its OT references.

    Solemnity of St Joseph 2012 Verbum Domini The Solemnity of St. Joseph is a very appropriate day to line out some ideas about the Word of God, and interpretation of the Word. We can easily focus on the “unity of the whole of Scripture,” which is the first of the three marks of ...read more

    What do the first two principles of biblical interpretation teach us about the Annunciation story?

    Solemnity of the Annunciation 2012 Verbum Domini When we pray together our profession of faith in a moment, the Missal instructs us to kneel for a moment (if we can) when we say that of the Son, “and by the Holy Spirit was incarnate of the Virgin Mary, and became man.” John’s ...read more

    The Wedding Garment

    Contributed by Paul Andrew on Aug 30, 2017
     | 10,308 views

    There was no procedural compliance in terms of the man’s dress which is symbolic that he was not clothed in his white baptismal garment (saved).

    The Wedding Garment— An old Baptist preacher’s story tells of a parishioner who greeted his minister at the close of the service with the same observation, Sunday after Sunday: “You really gave it to them today, Preacher!” Over time, the minister became concerned that this parishioner never seemed ...read more

    Like Lightning Lighting Up The Sky Series

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Nov 9, 2013
     | 3,143 views

    In the Christian life, with suffering, God gives us wordless and imageless insights that strengthen and confirm faith.

    Thursday of 32nd Week in Course Lumen Fidei To get a clearer understanding of today’s Gospel, we have to take it in context. First, Jesus is addressing the Pharisees, who wanted to know when the kingdom of God would come. Remember that this sect–really a kind of political party as ...read more

    Mary's total dedication to God is paralleled in our lives because of the faithful presence of God in both.

    Presentation of the Blessed Virgin Mary 2013 Lumen Fidei The feast of the Presentation of the Blessed Virgin Mary, our Memorial today, is not attested in the Scriptures, where Mary is first acknowledged at the Annunciation by Gabriel. Nor is it in any of the authentic Church Fathers. The ...read more

     | 3,836 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

     | 3,792 views

    Truth and faith are only possible when we share in a memory greater than the one we accumulate in our lifetime.

    Thursday of 3rd Week in Lent 2014 Truth Has Perished “Truth has perished; it is cut off from their lips.” Thus the words of Jeremiah about the people of Israel. He could be saying it about modern life in the United States of America. Oh, there’s plenty of information. Never ...read more

    Stephen, Love And Truth

     | 2,421 views

    St Stephen's sermon was very aggressive, and would not really be expected to work, but his core truth is real.

    St. Stephen December 26 2013 Lumen Fidei I grew up in the fifties and sixties, and being a Catholic was “okay” with the culture back then. So this quote from Jesus about being hated by all seemed to be referring to anti-Catholic bigotry from the early 1900s. After all, wasn’t ...read more

    Why Did The "Sinners" Love Hanging Out With Jesus?

    Contributed by Jim Butcher on Dec 30, 2013
    based on 4 ratings
     | 6,950 views

    It's a fact worth pondering: the tax collectors and sinners LIKED being with Jesus. That's not usually how the lost feel around us. What did Jesus have that we don't?

    AN IMPORTANT FACT: The tax collectors and “sinners” liked hanging out with Jesus. - Matthew 9:10. - It’s easy to rush past verse 10 and get to the rest of this story, but it’s worth settling for a moment here and thinking about its implications. The tax collectors and ...read more
