    In Whose Image And Likeness?

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Aug 9, 2008
    based on 4 ratings
     | 3,177 views

    God created us in his own image and likeness, with intellect and free will. He respects our dignity by allowing even bad choices.

    The temptation that humans in an unredeemed state constantly undergo is the temptation to create gods in their own image and likeness. So Zeus, the king of the gods, was created in the image of earthly kings–capricious, selfish, lusty and unfaithful. Dionysius, god of wine and revelry, was a ...read more

     | 3,501 views

    Jesus renews the ancient Hebrew Passover meal and gives it a new reality in the true Lamb of God.

    December 29, 2008 Sacramentum Caritatis The new priest offered his first sermon to his congregation. As the people left, many stopped and complimented him on his preaching. He thanked them, went through the week and, the next Sunday, noticed a larger congregation. Some of the parishioners ...read more

    Perfect Through Suffering

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Jan 10, 2009
    based on 3 ratings
     | 2,328 views

    We are not complete until we are life-giving, and that means that we, like Jesus, must suffer.

    January 13, 2009 Strengths and Weaknesses We’d better get this one right, because if we don’t, life is pretty miserable. Our strengths are for others; our weaknesses are for our own growth. What we see in Hebrews here is an elaboration of the hymn St. Paul gives us in Philippians chapter 2. ...read more

    God-Fighter Or God-Obeyer?

     | 2,872 views

    Though Israel disobeyed and broke the covenant with God, God did not give up, and formed a new people in a New Covenant that fulfilled the Old in the crucified Christ

    Monday of First Week in Advent 2008 Sacramentum Caritatis The words of Jesus today stand alongside those of Isaiah: two prophets saying the same thing. In these latter days, the true Israel of God is the people who understand how to obey the authoritative word. In Jesus’s case, it was a pagan ...read more

    Zacchaeus was hated and misanthropic, but salvation came through the obedience of faith and the call of Jesus.

    Tuesday of 33rd Week in Course Lk 19: 1-10 Jericho is the oldest city in the world, as near as archaeologists can determine. Today it’s a dusty little Palestinian village a short drive away from the Dead Sea. The town would be dead, too, if it weren’t also the lowest city in the world, at the ...read more

    A Pattern Of Devotion

    based on 4 ratings
     | 5,799 views

    Four distinguishing marks of the New Testament Church.

    A PATTERN OF DEVOTION. Acts 2:42-47. Three thousand souls ‘gladly received (Peter’s) word’ and ‘were baptised’ that day (cf. Acts 2:41) - yet, the revival of Pentecost was not yet over. To substantiate that we should realise the significance of the verse at the end of our present passage: “And the ...read more

    Freely Must You Give Series

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Jul 5, 2013
     | 4,964 views

    Like St. Benedict, we must live simply if we are to successfully share the gospel of Jesus.

    The great saints, like St. Benedict whom we celebrate today, bear witness that the words of today’s Gospel are not just for the first century. They are timeless instructions on our work of evangelism. Those who spread the good news are doing so as Jesus did. The effectiveness of the Church ...read more

    The Key To Righteous Living

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Jan 15, 2014
    based on 5 ratings
     | 8,255 views

    Jesus came not to destroy the law, but to keep and fulfill it. We also are required to be obedient to the law - not indeed as a means of salvation (which it could never be) - but as an expression of our love and service.

    THE KEY TO RIGHTEOUS LIVING. Matthew 5:17-20. 1. Jesus’ statement is emphatic:- “Think not that I am come to destroy the law, or the prophets: I am not come to destroy, but to fulfill” (Matthew 5:17). The righteousness of God is the Lord Jesus Christ. He is the end of the law, the one to whom ...read more

     | 2,053 views

    This is a Lord's Supper Meditation.

    As we come to the Lord’s table, we are to be reminded of what Jesus did for us just before He was arrested. He initiated the first Lord’s Supper. It was a solemn moment. All His disciples were gathered in an upper room. Jesus knew that we would need to be reminded of what He went through for ...read more

    God turns away from our fasting unless we are getting our behavior together

    Saturday of the First Week in Lent Today’s reading from the prophet Isaiah is the second part of a very late prophecy, one that appears to have been written down years after the Babylonian exile. The prophet Zechariah tells us that in this late period, there were fasts in the fourth, fifth, ...read more

    Losing Popularity But Gaining Christ Series

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Apr 29, 2024
     | 517 views

    Jesus says we are not of this world, this secular society, and so those who hear us and see us will at first despise us and everything we do and say.

    Saturday of the Fifth Week in Easter 2024 Today’s Scriptures give one of the best examples of stating a principle of evangelization in the Gospel and giving an example of application in the reading from the Acts of the Apostles. Jesus had given his farewell sermon and prayers during the Last ...read more

    If you don’t sharpen a blade from time to time, it gets dull.

    Saturday of the 4th Week in Course Young and in a Desert Place This prayer from the author of the Letter to the Hebrews fits so well with our psalm and Gospel today that I would like to share the links. The prayer is “Now may the God of peace who brought again from the dead our Lord Jesus, the ...read more

    Equal In Dignity, Diverse In Function Series

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Jun 21, 2009
    based on 1 rating
     | 3,733 views

    In our worship, we are all equal in dignity, but, as Jesus gave different ministries to his disciples, in and out of worship, we differ in function and service; that is the meaning of hierarchy.

    Solemnity of Peter and Paul June 29, 2009 The readings for this solemnity help us to understand how it is that Christ left us–as a gift–a hierarchical Church. I was reading some fairly recent articles in Pastoral Music recently, and came across a rather angry one from a nun who was complaining ...read more

    A sermon for Maundy Thursday based on the Words of Institution.

    I Corinthians 11: 23 – 26 As I Have Loved You Intro: Some time ago there was a television commercial that ended with, “Nothing says lovin’ like something from the oven.” That is especially true of bread. Nothing smells as wonderful as bread baking in the oven. In the ...read more

    St. Peter gives us a program for becoming saints of faith.

    Monday of 9th Week in Course Verbum Domini Sometimes the New Testament gives us a long or short example of the earliest movements toward what we call systematic theology. This second letter of Peter begins with something like that–a list of strengths or virtues in logical order. Each ...read more
