    Forgive those who offend you or God cannot forgive your own sins. Be merciful as your heavenly Father is merciful.

    Thursday of 19th Week in Course St Stephen of Hungary Today’s first reading, from the prophet Ezekiel, is so short that it tends to run right through our heads without finding purchase. So I’ll read it again, The word of the LORD came to me: 2"Son of man, you dwell in the midst of a rebellious ...read more

    Let’s take this story as a challenge to become more compassionate to the destitute, and provide for their education, food and shelter so they may grow spiritually, physically and emotionally in Christ.

    Thursday of the First Week of Advent 2018 Beginning any new liturgical season, we try to shake off our slumber and be more present to the Lord whom we worship.

  • Ahaz, Isaiah And The Call Of The Virgin Series

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Dec 15, 2018
     | 3,474 views

    We need to listen to His word, and say with Mary, “I am the servant of the Lord, let His will be done in my life.”

    December 20 Pre-Christmas Novena The richness of today’s Scripture lessons cannot be exaggerated. There is so much here that literally books have been written about two passages. We are tempted to exegesis instead of exhortation, but without a little of the former, the latter is made ...read more

  • The Gospel Succeeds Even In An Age Of Fecklessness Series

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Jan 11, 2020
     | 2,779 views

    We need to continue on the path we were set on by Jesus long ago–the path to holiness. That means giving up everything of this world that keeps us from imaging Jesus and Mary.

    Tuesday of the First Week in Course 2020 Saint Mark gets right to the point, just like the high priest Eli. But Saint Mark gets the whole picture, and Eli does not. Mark’s Gospel is designed to demonstrate to his Roman audience–and us–that Jesus Christ is the Son of God and Messiah. Look how few ...read more

  • New Directions Series

     | 5,069 views

    We think of the new year as a new direction for our lives. God offers us new directions every day.

    1. The Bible has a great deal to say about “New” • New Covenant • New Heart • New Life • New Way • New Creation, to name a few 2. We tend to view the New Year as our big opportunity to restart. It can be true but actually each day is a new beginning. It really is the “first day of the rest of ...read more

     | 3,427 views

    Christian atheists talk about being good without God. How can we be good with God?

    Can we really be good without God? I suppose to really answer that question we should examine what good means.Most people would say they are good people. They have never robbed a bank, stolen something from a store,or beaten a helpless person. They have paid their bills on time and obeyed the laws ...read more

     | 1,980 views

    These are thoughts on Genesis Chapter Seventeen. In his work, "What does every Bible chapter say..." John Hunt gives an overview of each chapter of the Bible. It is my intention to do the same thing here.

    GENESIS CHAPTER SEVENTEEN OVERVIEW Overall what is happening in this chapter is that the covenant between God and Abram renewed. In the process, Abram’s name is changed and circumcision becomes a part of the agreement. Thomas Coke (1801) – Genesis 17 God renews the covenant with Abram: changes ...read more

Many believers in today's churches may still act in this manner. We need to heed the warning of these false ...read more

    The supper is ready, and the invitations have been sent. But what is an invitation?
