    Drought, Pestilence, Famine, And Repentance Series

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Jul 25, 2020
     | 3,434 views

    Our culture, which has especially violated the commandment to love God by turning the Lord’s day into a market day, and has violated the commandment to love our neighbor by murdering millions of preborn infants, is clearly under judgement.

    Tuesday of 17th Week in Course 2020 The Plague Year Homilies The Church providently provides for us a series of fitting readings this year, currently from the prophecy of Jeremiah. Today we pick up in chapter 14 with what is called a series of prophecies during a great drought. Earlier in the ...read more

    Even In A Catastrophe, We Should Glorify The Lord By Our Lives Series

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Aug 8, 2020
    based on 1 rating
     | 2,161 views

    In heaven, then, when we succeed in becoming like Christ as His servants and siblings, the Father will give us honors beyond anything we could hope for.

    Monday of the 19th Week in Course: St. Lawrence One of the directions we deacons can give at the end of Holy Mass says “Go in peace, glorifying the Lord by your life.” The idea is to go out from the Eucharistic celebration and bear fruit, bringing the Gospel to your friends and colleagues. That ...read more

    What Revelations Has To Say To The U.s. Church Series

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Nov 14, 2020
     | 1,900 views

    Do we have anything in common with the first-century church of Ephesus? Unfortunately, yes we do. Too much have we abandoned the love of Christ we had at first.

    Monday of 33rd Week in Course 2020 In this penultimate week of the Church year, the Church gives us snippets from the Book of Revelations, the last and in some ways most difficult book of the New Testament. You see today the style of the letters; the ones we have this week are written to churches ...read more

    The Staying Pilgrims

    Contributed by Perry Greene on Nov 18, 2020
     | 1,883 views

    Thanksgiving reminds us of the Pilgrims and their journey to America. Their faith proved them to be steppingstones for generations.

    1. Hebrews 11:13 (GNV) All these died in faith, and received not the promises, but saw them afar off, and believed them, and received them thankfully, and confessed that they were strangers and pilgrims on the earth. 2. My misconceptions and new interest with the Pilgrims and 400th Anniversary of ...read more

    Easter Of Unending Joy

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Mar 15, 2022
     | 1,246 views

    Christ’s transfigured body is the template for our own, just as His resurrected body is.

    Easter of Unending Joy In one of my favorite Lenten hymns, the congregation sings “O Lord, with us abide.” The final verse, then, prays “Abide with us so when this life of suffering is past, an Easter of unending joy we may attain at last.” That unending, joyful Easter is what we all aim for at ...read more

    Decision In The Desert- First Sunday Of Lent

    Contributed by Paul Andrew on Mar 5, 2022
     | 2,199 views

    A paradigm for its own struggle in an alien environment.

    THE DEVIL IN THE DESERT “You shall not put the Lord your God to the test,” Jesus replied to Satan from Deuteronomy 6:16: but the rest of the verse says, “as you tested [God] at Massah.” Massah means testing and Meribah means contention. Psalm 95:8 says, “Do not harden your hearts as you did ...read more

    Prayer For The People

    Contributed by Chris Swanson on Dec 9, 2022
     | 1,086 views

    What is penance? What is repentance? What is confession? Can we pay for our sins?

    What is penance? It is an act of self-abasement, mortification or devotion performed to show sorrow. What is repentance? It is to turn from sin and dedicate oneself, to feel regret or contrition. What is confession? It is a disclosure of one's sins in sacrament of reconciliation, ...read more

    Opening Up To The Torrent Of Divine Grace

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Jan 14, 2023
     | 1,373 views

    In the supernatural realm, were you aware that there is a spiritual atmospheric river just outside our reach every moment of our lives?

    Second Sunday in Course 2023 When one counts up the verses making up today’s Scripture readings, it becomes obvious that the quantity of Bible is very small–seventeen total verses in three proclaimed readings and one responsorial psalm. That means that either the committee who put together the ...read more

    Perfect Or Finished?

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Jan 26, 2023
     | 1,053 views

    "Perfect" is a single word with a huge load of meaning. Do we have the right idea about the word?

    Perfect or Finished? I have to admit my thoughts and feelings when I first heard the Biblical injunction from Jesus, “Be perfect, as your heavenly Father is perfect.” (Mt 5:48) I felt horrible; I thought I was doomed. Hell was to be my ultimate destination. Perfect is a single word with a huge ...read more

    Repent And Do Series

     | 4,960 views

    Every one of us, at the end of every day, should ask the same question: are we the first son or daughter, who refused, or the second, who said “yes, sir,” but didn’t do?

    26th Sunday in Course 2020 Anyone who has raised more than one child can empathize with the parent in this story from St. Matthew’s Gospel. In fact, it’s a little like the story of the Prodigal Son from St. Luke. Dad says to the first son, presumably the oldest, “Go work in the vineyard today.” He ...read more

    Woke Culture And The Good Shepherd Series

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Apr 22, 2021
    based on 6 ratings
     | 3,731 views

    The emergence of "woke" culture and personalities is a bigger threat to humanity than the Chinese coronavirus.

    4th Sunday of Easter 2021 There’s a long tradition of reading the Word of God centered around Jesus as a shepherd, especially this Sunday. Part of that is that sheep without a shepherd are pathetic. They fall into pits, are hunted down by wolves and coyotes and wail pathetically until someone ...read more

    Love, Fear, Forgiveness And Forgetting Series

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Apr 28, 2021
     | 2,046 views

    God fills you with love, and as you mature in Christ, that drives out the fear of eternal damnation, the only real fear worth mentioning.

    5th Sunday of Easter We’ve grown so accustomed to seeing St. Paul as one of the good guys of history, especially of Catholic or Christian history that we might be shocked by today’s reading from the Acts. Paul comes to Jerusalem after a three-year retreat in the Arabian desert. He comes full of ...read more

    Who Trusts In Him Is Blessed.

    Tasting the goodness of the LORD.

    WHO TRUSTS IN HIM IS BLESSED. Psalm 34:1-8; Psalm 34:19-22. David was ‘on the run’ from king Saul. Mistakenly thinking that he might find refuge with the Philistines, he only escaped from their clutches by feigning madness (1 Samuel 21:10-15). Then he hid in a cave. Knowing that David was in ...read more

    Three-In-One! Series

    Contributed by Charles Mallory on Jun 1, 2023
     | 1,247 views

    We can praise and worship God as Father, Son, and Holy Spirit because of the countless ways He reveals Himself to us in three distinct, holy, and powerful ways.

    OTHER THAN JOHN 3:16 AND THE 23RD PSALM, WE HAVE PAUL CONCLUDING HIS SECOND LETTER TO THE CORINTHIANS WITH SOME OF THE MOST QUOATED WORDS IN ALL OF SCRIPTURE. NOWHERE ELSE IN THE NEW TESTAMENT WILL YOU FIND GOD THE FATHER, SON AND HOLY SPIRIT MENTIONED TOGETHER IN SUCH A BLESSING. THIS BLESSING ...read more
