    It turns out that the devil is knocking at her door and she says, “I never dreamed he’d have blue eyes and blue jeans.”

    “He was among wild beasts, and the angels ministered to him.” In the Greek, these were dangerous animals. These wild animals can remind us that dangers surrounded Jesus all through his life. And ours. e.g. At a United States Army post in the desert of Kuwait, Protestant Chaplain (Major) Barbara ...read more

    Contributed by Simon Bartlett on May 11, 2020
     | 1,532 views

    Isaiah foresaw global environmental destruction. That's what we have today.

    People often talk about ratios. We have student-teacher ratio, price-earnings ratio, debt-GDP ratio, power-weight ratio and so on. I’d like to propose a ‘significance-study ratio’ to highlight significant passages of Scripture which we overlook. Today’s passage is one of them. World leaders and ...read more

    Thursday of 17th Week in Course In our two and a half year look at the “Joy of the Gospel,” we have been considering Pope Francis’ words about preaching. Today we have two parallel readings about the response to the preaching of Jeremiah and John the Baptist, and on the surface, ...read more

     | 4,290 views

    Like the eunuch from Ethiopia, we must be open to God's plan in Christ.

    Thursday of 3rd Week of Easter 2015 Joy of the Gospel The Father was surely drawing this Ethiopian to Jesus, and–not by luck–deacon Phillip was on the same road as the African’s chariot. The eunuch had been in Jerusalem to pray and study, so he was either a Jew or an admirer of ...read more

     | 762 views

    In our Lord’s Prayer, we beseech God not to lead us into temptation. Can he? Does he?

    Scripture Reading: Matthew 6:7-15 And when you pray, do not keep on babbling like pagans, for they think they will be heard because of their many words. Do not be like them, for your Father knows what you need before you ask him. “This, then, is how you should pray: “‘Our Father in heaven, hallowed ...read more

     | 4,009 views

    We must spread the joy of the Gospel as we fight all kinds of enslavement.

    Thursday of First Week in Course 2016 Joy of the Gospel I can’t imagine what it is to be a slave, or, for that matter, like Lincoln, a slave-owner.

    Isn’t God’s mercy good news for all of us? He’s forgiven the sins of my youth, and, yes, even my old age.

    Thursday of 21st Week in Course St. Paul’s words to Corinth today are like a commentary on the Gospel. Simon and the boys have been fishing all night, casting and pulling, casting and pulling. All they got was garbage. But at the word of Jesus, they put out into deep water–not the ...read more
