    based on 4 ratings
     | 5,669 views

     | 2,321 views

    We must strive for renewal of our liturgical music from within

    Monday in the Octave of Easter 25 April 2011 Spirit of the Liturgy The Gospel today documents a coverup.

     | 6,187 views

    Take the risk; take the challenge; take the grace and grow.

    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

    Thursday of the 30th Week in Course 2016 Joy of the Gospel Every time we turn a page in the New Testament, we are–if we are sensitive–struck by how counter-intuitive the Christian message is. Consider St. Paul’s life. He was, by his own account, a super-Jew. He observed every ...read more

     | 3,445 views

    "Evangelization and interreligious dialogue, far from being opposed, mutually support and nourish one another."

    Thursday in Second Week of Easter 2016 Joy of the Gospel Today we hear the story of Peter’s witness before the Sanhedrin in the months following the first Pentecost. To the authorities who had forbade preaching about Jesus, Peter reminds them that the Law of God goes before any human law. ...read more

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Jun 10, 2017
     | 2,763 views

    To enjoy infinite love curing our infinite sadness, we need to live by the moral code Jesus taught, the code of loving even our enemies.

    Thursday of 2nd Week in Course 2017 Joy of the Gospel “Our infinite sadness can only be cured by an infinite love.” Those words of Pope Francis ended our reflection last Thursday on the encyclical Joy of the Gospel.

    In the midst of the Reformation, God weaves a tapestry of faith in the lives of weak human beings.

    Thursday of the 2nd Week in Advent 2017 Reformation/Revolution When external situations are the bleakest, God acts to fulfill His promises to His people–first in the history of the Jews, and now in the age of the Church. The second and third parts of Isaiah were probably written by his followers ...read more

     | 2,111 views

    Thursday of First Week in Course 2014 Lumen Fidei Everyone who loves the parent loves the child, so we can’t say we love God and avoid loving our neighbor.

  • Evangelizing The Cities Series

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Feb 28, 2015
     | 3,498 views

    Just as post-Resurrection Judaism created a culture that rejected the Gospel, so modern society tries to make people incapable of receiving Christ. But we must bear witness, especially in the cities.

    Thursday of the Second Week in Lent Joy of the Gospel Last Sunday we heard Jesus tell his key disciples not to disclose their vision of Him transfigured until He would rise from the dead. There was a good reason for that. The Jewish mindset, which had been formed by prophets like Jeremiah, ...read more

     | 3,469 views

    Faith, above all, is a gift of God. Now it’s a gift that he pours out liberally on all humans, but it will not save our souls unless we cooperate with it.

    Thursday of 28th Week in Course 2017 Reformation Revolution Saints John de Brébeuf and Isaac Jogues Our readings today say the same thing in different ways. St. Paul’s letter to the Romans was really the first work of systematic theology. It positions the saving work of Our Lord in the context of ...read more
