How you view the cross makes all the difference.

I wasn’t raised a Catholic, but I used to go to Mass with my friends, and I viewed the whole business as a lot of very enthralling hocus-pocus. There’s a guy ... nailed to a cross and dripping blood, and everybody’s blaming themselves for that man’s torment, but I said to myself, ’Forget it. I had ...read more

Nothing Ordinary About Our Call

Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Jun 18, 2022

| 982 views

Our evangelical mission is anything but ordinary.

This Sunday is best called the “3rd Sunday after Pentecost.” I say it is best called that because it reminds us that Christ’s Catholic Church is Pentecostal–evangelical in the original sense. We are empowered by the Holy Spirit, working in us individually, as families, and as community to bring the ...read more

I wrote this for a counseling class. It contains three parts: 1) Bereavement in religion 2) Bereavement in ethnic groups 3) Applications for pastoral and clinical counselors.

To be used of the Lord to help those grieving is both satisfying and humbling. My personal prayer is that more mourners will be drawn to the gospel of Jesus Christ.

The principle of “No one is good but God alone

Jesus knew He was God and said so: He was accused of being God at his trial. Jesus revealed his divinity by miracles, and by His Resurrection, but he never says to the crowds, “Hey, everyone, I’m God.” In today’s Gospel, he goes undercover. To illustrate: In the TV show, Undercover Boss, a ...read more

Twenty-Sixth Sunday In Ordinary Time, Year B: "When In Doubt, Cut It Out.”

| 489 views

It is not hyperbole to say that it is better to enter heaven maimed [one-armed, one-footed, and one-eyed] than to enter hell whole. That is literally true.

“When Jesus exaggerated” is a book title, and there are countless articles on how Jesus uses exaggeration and hyperbole for effect, like we hear this Sunday; to literally cut off your hand or foot or gouge-out your eyes because then you won’t sin with them.1 However, “it is not hyperbole to say ...read more
