    Do We Have A Case Of Heartburn?

    Contributed by Chris Swanson on Jan 12, 2023
     | 1,611 views

    This is the story of the two men that were going back to Emmaus and what happened to them on their journey. They almost missed something because they were centered around their own personal issues.

Undoubtedly, they had heard His preaching, the various parables, and what He was teaching about Himself. It was as if they were not looking ...read more

    We have all had it happen. You are driving in an unfamiliar area and make a turn, and something does not seem right. As you go on you realize that there is no way that this could be the right road. It is time to stop traveling the wrong direction and turn around and go back. Repentance is like ...read more

    The Bible tells us that when Jesus returns to earth, he will physically raise all those who have died, giving them back the bodies they lost at death.

    Easter 3B The Gospel today makes us ask ourselves one fundamental question, an essential question in the Easter Season: how would you react if Jesus appeared to you? Would you recognize him? In the First Reading, Saint Peter tells the Jews that they didn’t recognize the author of life, their ...read more

    ... In The Heart

    Contributed by Paul Richard on Jun 22, 2020
     | 7,883 views

    The heart of man is the meeting point of the forces to slog it out and man struggles to hold back the forces from the dark world but the Grace of God is sufficient to renew the attacked heart.

    I. It is a fact that the heart is the source of power. In medical perspective, it is the pumping station of blood to the body/flesh. The power is in the blood and in the blood is life (Leviticus 17:11). And the scripture describes the heart as place that accommodate the issues of life (Proverbs ...read more

    The psalmist looks back at Israel’s history. He tells us that He wants us to hearken to His voice. Specifically, we must not harden our hearts.

    The Rebellion in the Desert, and in Our Hearts The New Year 2024 is just a few days old, but one thing is pretty clear to me. Although we live on the juncture between two cities that each have noise and anti-fireworks ordinances, everyone agrees that the fireworks explosions heard as the old year ...read more
