    Begin with “end of the world” in mind.

    33B In a best-selling book that first came out in the late 80’s, Stephen Covey identified what he called the ‘seven habits of highly effective people.’ The second habit the author lists is: Begin with the End in Mind. 1).

    The theology of enjoyment in the Book of Ecclesiastes is repeated over and over: find enjoyment and satisfaction in your work.

    It’s optional— when the Church’s sacred ministers wear “pink” on Laetare Sunday —the Fourth Sunday of Lent. The word is from the Latin word for the command “rejoice!” To illustrate this theme: A famous preacher was trying to teach his students to make their facial expressions harmonize with ...read more

    You may be the only one on earth who can walk with them and for them on their journey toward the Father.

    Homily Let’s take a moment to do a thought experiment. We do that a lot in the physical sciences to make our hypotheses and plan our real experiments. So let’s do that with society. (After all, politicians experiment with society all the time, don’t they, even if the thought behind it is totally ...read more

  • Do You Understand What You Are Reading?

     | 1,734 views

    We read Scripture because we want to know more about God and His plan for us. But do we really understand?

    Thursday of the 3rd week in Easter It is no surprise that whenever someone is reading from the OT during NT times, he is probably reading from an Isaiah scroll. The only time that Jesus gave His disciples an extensive Bible lesson, He began with Moses and then the prophets and asked “was it not ...read more

    Where the wild things are.

    Isaiah and the Baptizer from our Readings this Second Sunday of Advent conspire to give us animal dreams. [source: Holy fishes: Isaiah 11:1-10; Romans 15:4-13; Matthew 3:1-12 by Frederick A. Niedner, November 30, 2004]. Where the wild things are. Broods of vipers from Matthew 12:34, and ...read more

  • Food That Endures Through Our Faith Series

    They didn’t see the sign that the multiplying loaves represented. Jesus’s temporary filling their tummies was supposed to be a sign that faith in Him.

    Monday of the Third Week of Easter Fake news is not new. Enemies of the Faith have been inventing tales about Christians even before anyone used the word “Christian.” At His trial, false witnesses invented accusations against Jesus, and in fact said the same thing of Jesus that they later accused ...read more

     | 1,739 views

    Jesus came not to destroy the Law but to fulfill it. But in so doing Jesus made us not merely servants of God, but sons and daughters of God.

    Homily for Monday of the 19th week in course Did the early followers of Jesus consider themselves to be Christians or Jews? The answer is that their discipleship to Jesus was, in their minds, the completion of Judaism. Jesus came not to destroy the Law but to fulfill it. But in so doing Jesus ...read more

  • God Comes To His People--In Wisdom Series

     | 1,608 views

    The Lord is a jealous God. He’s not jealous for His own sake, but for ours. He knows that we are made for Him, and cannot, as Augustine says, find rest until we rest in Him

    God comes to His people Monday of Fifth week in year Solomon thought that he was a chip off the old block, the rock of Israel’s faith, King David. But there was something wrong with Solomon, something that even his reputation as a great solver of problems couldn’t fix. Jewish tradition tells us ...read more

  • Third Sunday Of Lent Year B- Cleansing The Temple

    Contributed by Paul Andrew on Mar 5, 2021
     | 3,183 views

    Jesus is doing disruptive even violent actions here, shocking me out of my consumerist mentality. No wonder my Savior hangs on a Cross.

    Whipping us into shape? “He made a whip out of cords.” John 2:15 Jesus made a whip. Making something with your hands can be therapeutic. Making a whip shows his anger did not impair his judgement. Writing an angry letter is a good way of bringing our feelings out so that we can see them. ...read more

    Advent, then, becomes a journey of unveiling—a sacred pilgrimage into the depths of our hearts and the heart of our communities.

    Advent beckons us into a sacred space of anticipation, where we prepare for the multifaceted coming of the Lord—his sacramental arrival at Christmas, his individual visitation at the end of our lives, and his collective advent at the culmination of time. Yet, what if we were told that the Christ we ...read more

  • Anything We Are Commanded To Do By God Must Be For Our Own Good

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Oct 15, 2024
     | 188 views

    You are worth the price of God’s own Son on the cross. Don’t forget it.

    Friday of the 23rd Week in Course 2024 Why do we exist? That’s a question that could be at the end of the endless list of questions our children aim at us when they are about three years old. I can’t claim that any of my girls asked it, but we should all do so, at least before we are in our ...read more

  • The Word For All Ages

    In truth, Jesus was the Son of God, and son of Mary.

    Saturday of the First Week of the Year 2023 I don’t know if our story from the Gospel of Luke is like the first time in history somebody used like the word “like” in a way that’s become emblematic of the early 21st century in the US, but here it is: “Jesus was like thirty-ish, being the ...read more

  • The Mission Transcends Mere Geography

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Feb 9, 2025
     | 142 views

    The fame of Jesus spread far from Capernaum and His words and healing were affecting many thousands, preparing both Jew and Gentile for the expansion of the Church after Pentecost .

    Friday of the Fifth Week in Course 2025 Most modern Christians in North America, I believe, are unfamiliar with first-century geography, even of the Holy Land. I think if I use a midwestern U.S. parable, it might be easier to envision than what St. Mark records in his Gospel here. Let’s try ...read more

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Jul 16, 2024
     | 448 views

    They were united in peace, because the true peace is Jesus, whose sacrifice on the cross is the event that attracts all humans in need of rescue from sin.

    Sixteenth Sunday in Course 2024 If you know your biblical history, it’s pretty easy to understand why the prophet Jeremiah is often portrayed in art as super-sad. He was active in his prophetic mission during a time that was economically prosperous, at least for the Jewish rich, but spiritually ...read more

  • Transformed By The Renewal Of Our Minds

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Aug 30, 2023
     | 1,276 views

    It certainly appears, as many commentators have noted, that God is at heart a hedonist. He seems to delight in humans taking pleasure in creation.

    Twenty-Second Sunday in Course 2023 The Hebrew prophet Jeremiah knew the joys and dangers of obeying the admonition to offer one’s body as a living sacrifice to God, and of refusing to conform himself to a corrupt age, such as he had, and Jesus, and, for that matter, us in twenty-first century ...read more
