    Monday of 18th Week in Course Caritas in Veritate The occasion for Jesus’ withdrawal to a “lonely place” was the news that John the Baptist, his relative and mentor, had been murdered by Herod.

    Participating in All Christ’s Mysteries Sept 15, 2008 When the Vatican Council schemas were laid out initially, the Blessed Virgin Mary was to have her own separate document.

    Jesus’s preaching differed from that of Jonah because Jonah prophesied judgement and vengeance, while Jesus embodied God’s unremitting love.

    Monday of 16th Week in Course 20 July 2009 Caritas in Veritate Before continuing a commentary on the papal encyclical Love in Truth, let me spend a moment on this analogy to Jonah. Jesus is saying to these Jewish non-believers, in effect, “Jonah eventually got it, and you guys will never get it.” ...read more

    Monday of 2nd Week in Lent Verbum Domini The wicked and adulterous generation that our culture has become is heartily in favor of the words of Jesus here–it’s about the only ones they ever quote–“Judge not, and you will not be judged.” They believe that if one loves ...read more

    As Dominic fought Catharism in the twelfth century, so we can witness to the Light of Faith in ours, to the Word made flesh.

    Feast of St. Dominic 2013 (II) The Church was in disarray. Clergy often led dissolute lives; many quietly took wives or mistresses and had children.
