    What Is A Christian?

    Contributed by Rodelio Mallari on Nov 14, 2010
    based on 4 ratings
     | 10,954 views

    Most people call themselves Christians yet when measured and weighed by God’s biblical standards, they are badly found wanting and untrue to the definition of a genuine Christian!

    Intro: The word “Christian” is used only 3X in the King James Bible (text; Acts 11:26c; 26:28). Most people call themselves Christians yet when measured and weighed by God’s biblical standards, they are badly found wanting and untrue to the definition of a genuine Christian! The Bible gives us ...read more

    Music Related To The Word Of God Series

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Apr 30, 2011
     | 3,149 views

    Though the musical establishment try to stop it, the Church will have music that gives primacy to the Word of God

    Monday of 2nd Week of Easter St. Athanasius–2011 May 2, 2011 The coincidence of these readings with the Feast of St. Athanasius is, I believe, unique in our lifetime. That’s because Easter is rarely this late. It helps us understand that controversy is not unique to our age, and that ...read more

    Evangelization And Grace Series

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on May 23, 2015
     | 3,753 views

    The purpose of prayer is NOT to let God know something He does not know. It is to open us to His free gift.

    Thursday of Pentecost Week 2015 Joy of the Gospel In my opinion, one of the mistakes made in the seventies was the elimination of the Octave of Pentecost, and the changing of the season “after Pentecost” to what is now called “Ordinary Time.” That’s a perfectly awful ...read more

    The Banquet, The Summit Series

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Feb 1, 2013
     | 3,697 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

    Four Helpful Senses Of Scripture Series

    based on 1 rating
     | 3,531 views

    We can see in the writing of the story of Cornelius and Jesus's words about the sheepfold very helpful examples of the literal and spiritual senses of Scripture.

    Monday of 4th Week of Easter Verbum Domini The richness of today’s Scripture readings should suggest to us a couple of responses. First, we need several hours of study of the text and its meanings. Second, we should, in worshipful awe, spend a few more hours before the Blessed Sacrament ...read more

    We become a child of God through baptism

    Water and Spirit – Luke 3: 15 - 22 Intro: As a pastor, there are many questions you are asked. Some of them are harder to answer than others. One I have frequently heard is “What would your congregation think? Life seems to be full or question. This morning, I ...read more

    Hope And The Little Child Series

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Apr 12, 2021
     | 2,497 views

    A child, and especially the child Jesus, is above everything a sign of hope.

    Monday of 3rd week in Easter Today’s Gospel is so brief that we might be tempted to overlook it, as we are often tempted to ignore a little child. But many commentators believe that when Jesus said that we must turn and become like this little child, he was pointing to Himself. Pope Benedict ...read more

    Growing The Flock Of Christ Series

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Apr 24, 2021
     | 1,923 views

    In a world hungry for meaning, hungry for joy, hungry for hope, we must share the story of Christ and His Church.

    Monday of 4th week of Easter In Palestine, sheep have been for dozens of generations the basis of animal husbandry. Sheep produce milk and wool–they are not used for meat. Sheep are also pretty stupid, so they need shepherds to keep them from getting into trouble and being killed. Every night ...read more

    Jesus, Priest And King Series

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Jan 16, 2021
     | 1,925 views

    The grace won by Jesus on the cross is infinite, and therefore enough to redeem every human being, liberating us all from slavery to sin.

    Monday of 2nd Week in Course 2021 “Son though [Jesus] was, he learned obedience from what He suffered, and when He was made perfect, he became the source of eternal salvation for all who obey Him.” That word, “perfect,” really confused me when I was a kid. And even now it seems to be an impossible ...read more

    Eighteenth Sunday In Ordinary Time, Cycle B-- New Manna

    Contributed by Paul Andrew on Jul 31, 2021
     | 1,619 views

    Complaining became the rubric under which the journey was interpreted.

    In our First Reading we heard Exodus 16:2, “The whole Israelite community grumbled against Moses and Aaron.” It reminds me of the story of a lady who was a veritable fount of complaints. Her pastor came by to see her one day and she began to enumerate some of her complaints: “The neighbor’s ...read more

    We have to BYOB–bring our own brightness. Five prepared; five didn’t. Five were always ready; five figured they’d have time to get ready. Oops.

    Thirty-Second Sunday in Course reflections As we come to the end of this year of grace, a year with even more challenges of every kind than usual, the Word of God focuses on goals, on ends, on what a football coach would call the “last three minutes of the ball game.” And the first word to ...read more

    Last Or First? Series

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Dec 28, 2019
    based on 1 rating
     | 2,617 views

    At the beginning of the new year and decade we must ask ourselves if there is any hint of anti-Christ in our hearts.

    New Year’s Eve 2019 Last or First? Our holy Scripture today is taken from the apostle John. The Gospel teaches about the beginning, and the letter tells us about the end. And both beginning and end must be centered on Our Lord Jesus Christ. In fact, everything we do in the new year, the new decade ...read more

    Freedom To Be Like Christ

     | 563 views

    We are no longer, if we live as Christians, able to do wrong and hurt others and then plead “but I’m only human.”

    Eighteenth Sunday in Course 2024 While looking over my old homilies in preparation for today, I noted that these same readings, as they will do, came up back in 2018. Keying on the lesson from Exodus about the Israelites constantly griping about the time since God, with a “mighty hand and ...read more

    Heaven is the ultimate end and fulfilment of the deepest human longings, the state of supreme, definitive happiness

    At the wedding rehearsal, the bride told the priest that she was nervous that she would not remember what to do during the wedding. The celebrant told her that she only needed to remember 3 things. First the aisle, because that is what you'll be walking down. Secondly, the altar because ...read more

    Loving All The Way Until It Hurts Series

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on May 14, 2025
     | 257 views

    Remember that the letter to the Hebrews tells us that Jesus Himself was made perfect through suffering. If we, too, want to share in His glory, we must also be prepared to suffer, perhaps a lot. And loving can involve suffering too, can't it?

    Fifth Sunday of Easter 2025 Pope St. John Paul II looked at Our Lord Jesus as the fulfillment of what we might call “human potential.” He was and is the man that Adam was created to become. Lamentably, Adam and Eve tried the Satanic shortcut, attempting to become divine by disobeying a direct ...read more
