    Gifts of Thanksgiving

    I want you to know I am thankful…I am thankful that we only elect presidents once every four years – even though we have to watch their political ads for ever.

    Like Jesus and Stephen, Pope Benedict's words are rejected by a world that cannot admit its need to be changed from within.

    April 19, 2010 Caritas in Veritate The secular world doesn’t get it. In fact, the leaders of society have rarely gotten it in any age, because they don’t understand what people really want. In New Testament times, they resisted the change urged by the Lord Jesus and the Holy Spirit ...read more

    Side Doors

    Contributed by Bala Samson on Sep 2, 2013
     | 2,754 views

    It is not only about opening the front door for Christ but closing the side doors from satan is also of paramount importance!

    Side doors! Ephesians 5:15 “Therefore be careful how you walk, not as unwise men, but as wise..” Nestled in the midst of open fields, situated in the outskirts of the city, the simple, elegant, white colored duplex building was certainly gorgeous compared to the multi-hued houses all ...read more

     | 4,312 views

    Yes, God plants the seed that is His Word in the heart of a person that is entwined with thorns, that is the cares and riches of this world. Well, what do we do? We’ve got to get rid of the thorns

    THORNS! 'And that which fell among thorns are they, which, when they have heard, go forth, and are choked with cares, and riches, and pleasures of this life, and bring no fruit to perfection.' -- Luke 8:14. God kept whispering the word ‘THORNS’ in my ears! As I kept walking, sitting ...read more

    The Wisdom Of God And The Witness Of Martyrs

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Sep 1, 2018
     | 2,725 views

    The wisdom of every age considers the Catholic faith a folly. The only promise Christ made about this life is that we would be blessed through the agency of persecution.

    Thursday of the 22nd Week in Course 2018 St. Donatian of Africa The wisdom of any secular age considers the Christian faith to be folly. The reason for this is that the wisdom of a given secular age is focused on how to attain pleasure, status or power. It is essentially centered on the ...read more

    Standing By

    Contributed by Alison Bucklin on Mar 19, 2023
     | 1,204 views

    Can you stand by, doing nothing, when someone needs only your presence, not your action or your words or even your understnding?

    One of the hardest things in the world to do is - to do nothing. Jesus asked his three closest friends, disciples Peter, James and John, to do just that. Just to stay awake with him. Could you do that? With nothing to busy your hands with, no task to accomplish, nothing to read or plan or analyze ...read more

    God's Grace In The Workplace

    Contributed by Adrian Rogers on Nov 18, 2011
    based on 6 ratings
     | 28,798 views

    Don’t get the idea that to serve God you have to be a minister, or a missionary, or on the staff of some Christian organization. Every job, if it is done in the power of the Holy Spirit, is a sacred job.

    Introduction We’re preaching through the Book of Proverbs. A human proverb is a short sentence based on long experience, but these are short sentences based on something better than long experience. They’re based on the inspiration of the Holy Spirit, as given to Solomon. Now, today I ...read more

     | 19,126 views

    The marketplace touches virtually every person on the earth and this includes the church. The church cannot ignore what goes on in the world and should position itself to be effective in society as a whole which includes the marketplace.

    The Market Place When we refer to the marketplace in this book, we mean: * the world of business, trade, and economics * the world of commercial activity where goods and services are bought and sold * an area in a town where a public mercantile establishment is set up * where goods and ...read more

    Understanding Religious Fundamentalism

    Contributed by Robert Sickler on Mar 12, 2015
     | 3,312 views

    The United States has a very long history of unsuccessful conflicts with Islamic fundamentalists. The reason is that the only person who can really understand the dedication of a religious fundamentalist is another religious fundamentalist.

    UNDERSTANDING RELIGIOUS FUNDAMENTALISM ILLUSTRATION THE GATHERS There was a very wise man who one day decided to journey to a neighboring city with three of his followers. They were not long into their journey when they came upon a man picking berries. In his quest to get the largest and best ...read more
