    Intermediary? Why Do I Need A Middle Man Between Me And God?

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Dec 21, 2023
     | 1,091 views

    If I can't fix my own stereo system, how can I build a path for myself to divine union?

    Fourth Sunday of Advent 2023 So King David, after surviving his quarrel with King Saul and his thousands of followers, taking Jerusalem, the unconquered city, with the loss of barely any men, and extending his rule pretty much from the “river to the sea,” wakes up one morning in his cedar-lined ...read more

    The Master Of Plot-Twists Series

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Mar 21, 2023
     | 1,610 views

    God is a master at plot twists, isn’t He?

    Solemnity of the Incarnation 2023 The prophet Isaiah was, in my opinion, a master of irony. Although King Ahaz, who was king over a territory about the size of a Texas county and thus a kind of rump king, had allied his little nation with the huge Assyrian empire, that big gang of thieves was ...read more

    Uprooting Trees And Being Unprofitable Servants

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Sep 30, 2022
     | 1,085 views

    God’s gift is enough for us. We just have to apply that mustard-seed faith we are given and trust that God will give us what we need.

    Twenty-seventh Sunday in Course 2022 Today’s Gospel might whipsaw our brains a little, particularly if you read the whole chapter. Right before this passage, Jesus has been warning His disciples, and therefore us, against teaching others to sin. That’s called scandal. Here He speaks about the ...read more

    The Prayer Of The Humble Pierces The Clouds

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Oct 21, 2022
     | 851 views

    Paul had prayed all his life, as we should. “The prayer of the humble pierces the clouds.” God always hears our prayers.

    Thirtieth Sunday in Course 2022 It’s helpful for us, two thousand years since the events, to consider some background on this story, this parable, of Jesus about the Pharisee and the tax-collector, sometimes called the “publican.” The word “Pharisee” comes directly from the Greek. It means ...read more

    Jesus Falls, Part I Series

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Jan 13, 2022
     | 2,030 views

    Jesus was taking on his shoulder a social rejection that had to be just as troubling as the feel of the cross.

    Jesus Falls the First Time (Those of us who have had the privilege and honor of a pilgrimage to the Holy Land always make Jerusalem part of the holy time. There, although the Jewish Temple has been replaced by a grand mosque, we can see the very places we read about in the New Testament, the ...read more

    The Women Of Jerusalem Lament Series

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Jan 23, 2022
     | 1,977 views

    What should we lament as we contemplate the tortuous walk of Jesus to the place of the skull?

    The Women of Jerusalem lament (Those of us who have had the privilege and honor of a pilgrimage to the Holy Land always make Jerusalem part of the holy time. There, although the Jewish Temple has been replaced by a grand mosque, we can see the very places we read about in the New Testament, the ...read more

    Why Does God Save Us? Series

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Dec 24, 2022
     | 1,361 views

    He loves us, even though He has been injured in the loving.

    Christmas 2022 Why did God save us, anyway? In the beginning, He created man and woman as the summit of His work of bringing everything into being out of nothing. Unlike the false gods of Greece and Palestine, the true God does not need us at all. He is Being itself, and continuously creates and ...read more

    Big Cross Or Little Crosses, But No Other Path To Joy

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Feb 22, 2024
     | 704 views

    Abraham did not have to show his faith by slaying his only Son, Isaac. God the Father, however, did not hold onto His only Son, Christ Jesus, but accepted His sacrifice.

    Second Sunday in Lent 2024 St. Mark’s Gospel tells us today that “after six days” Jesus and His three lead apostles went up a high mountain. Why is “six days” important to remember? We need to go back to the previous chapter to see. The story line follows St. Matthew’s Gospel very closely, which ...read more

    Homecoming To The Temple

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Jan 30, 2025
     | 473 views

    Joseph and Mary brought their newborn Jesus into the Temple for a solemn ceremony.

    Homecoming Today’s feast is a commemoration of the wonderful moment when Jesus, the Messiah and Son of God, comes home to the Temple at Jerusalem. Homecoming is a wonderful moment in life. I recall decades ago, flying into our South Texas airport after a one-week training session, and my whole ...read more

    The Great Trades

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Mar 1, 2025
     | 261 views

    God, the Most High, has given us everything we own, so generosity in His service is only just.

    Tuesday of the Eighth Week in Course 2025 The wisdom book we have in Greek called Sirach, or Ecclesiasticus (since the early churches used it so often) reads like the book of Proverbs. Today’s proverbs regard offerings to God. Our sacrifices to God, in the spirit of the second-Temple Jews, should ...read more

    Decision Day--Don't Wait

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Mar 10, 2025
     | 286 views

    We don’t know when our termination date will be. It could be later today or tomorrow. We don’t get to decide.

    Friday of the First Week in Lent 2025 Ask anybody of mature age what are the two most important dates of anyone’s life and you will get a potpourri of answers. The statisticians will say the dates of birth and death, because those dates control so many decisions and outcomes. The real answers, for ...read more

    To See The Face Of God

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Mar 12, 2025
     | 437 views

    What a great gift the Transfiguration is for us, glorifying God in our second full week of Holy Lent!

    Second Sunday of Lent 2025 If there is a fundamental difficulty with religion, it may be that God, and every attribute of God, does not belong to us. All is naturally out of our human comprehension. We say God is transcendent. As Bp. Barron teaches, we are like two-dimensional stick figures on a ...read more

     | 5,988 views

    This is a sermon about Ash Wednesday and how it is a day of new beginnings.

    ASH WEDNESDAY REFLECTION 2003 “Blessed be the longing that brought you here and that quickens your soul with wonder.” This line is from a poem titled “A Blessing” by a man named John O’Donohue. I came across it quite by accident (or by God) As I was getting ready for work this morning and ...read more

    The Banquet, The Summit Series

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Feb 1, 2013
     | 3,689 views

    Over and over in the Gospels we see the work of Christ culminate in a celebratory banquet, even in the healing of the little girl.

    Monday of 5th Week in Course Feb 4 2012 Sacrosanctum Concilium The story of Jesus’s raising of the little girl, the daughter of Jairus, is one of the most touching in the Holy Gospels. The incident may have happened in Capernaum, St. Peter’s hometown, and it involved one of the ...read more
