    Contributed by Paul Andrew on Dec 29, 2020
    based on 1 rating
     | 2,316 views

    All human nature vigorously resists grace because grace changes us and the change is painful.

    1.Flannery O’Connor noted that “All human nature vigorously resists grace because grace changes us and the change is painful, “she wrote in 1958. (Adding, “Priests resist it as well as others.”) She means that grace intervenes in the sufferings of the ordinary -- ignorant, complacent people whose ...read more

    Everyone Who Asks Receives? Really? Series

    based on 3 ratings
     | 1,485 views

    “We should believe in the name of his Son Jesus Christ and love one another, just as he has commanded us.” That’s not a suggestion. That’s a demand .

    Monday of Epiphany Week 2020 It’s a good idea to read St. John’s words in this first letter perhaps every week of our lives, because in it we find the key to happiness and fulfillment. John says “we receive from [God] whatever we ask.” Hmm, that’s interesting. And we recall that Jesus Himself said ...read more

     | 3,088 views

    Isn’t God’s mercy good news for all of us? He’s forgiven the sins of my youth, and, yes, even my old age.

    3rd Sunday in Course 2021 Poor Jonah. We can hardly blame him. God tells him to go convert the people and rulers of Nineveh, heart of the Assyrian empire. You see, the Assyrians were for about six centuries the scourge of the ancient Middle East, kind of a cross between the Huns, the Vandals and ...read more

    Water Flows From The True Temple Series

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Nov 7, 2020
     | 2,852 views

    Jerusalem is on a series of hills, and water has to be brought into the city from elsewhere. But the real Temple of God, the Precious Body of Christ, is the source of living water.

    Dedication of the Lateran Basilica 2020 Water Flows from the Temple There are few feasts quite as confusing as today’s commemoration of the dedication of the Archbasilica of St. John Lateran, a church in Rome. But it’s not just “a” church in Rome, it is the church in Rome. If I asked a thousand ...read more

     | 2,801 views

    Our Lord forebears because His desire is for all to be saved. And when the trumpet blows, the time for repentance is over.

    Second Sunday in Advent 2020 Let me share reflections on the Word of God for the second Sunday in Advent in this plague year 2020. The virus has been a plague, at least made worse by the attitude and behavior of the communist regime in mainland China. The election has been a plague, and I think ...read more

    Witnessing To The Culture Of Death Series

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Mar 7, 2020
     | 2,336 views

    We must work and pray, as St. Benedict told us to do. Work for the spread of the kingdom in our families and communities, and vote as a Christian must, for godly men and women who will resist the culture of death and legislate for life, peace, and goodness.

    Tuesday of the 2nd Week in Lent 2020 For our first reading today, I have chosen to begin earlier in the first chapter of Isaiah than the Lectionary suggests, and to add the verses the Lectionary omits. The Lenten readings take a great deal of the very long prophecies of Isaiah, but they omit ...read more

    Belief In God Or Murphy? Series

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Aug 6, 2020
    based on 1 rating
     | 2,114 views

    I think it may be true: More people believe in Murphy than believe in a loving God seen in Jesus Christ.

    Believe in God, or Murphy? Friday of the 18th Week in Course 2020 If we had been Assyrians in the time during and after 612 years before Christ, roughly the time of the prophecy of Nahum, what would we be thinking and feeling? Nineveh, capital of Assyria at that time, had been besieged for months ...read more

     | 4,177 views

    We need to understand what it means for the Word to become flesh, and dwell among us.

    Seventh Day in the Christmas Octave (December 31) Thirteen Days of Christmas Every so often you’ll find a columnist or author complaining or inferring that God has no sense of humor, or that the Church is too serious. Today’s readings, on this last day of the year, prove that to be ...read more

    5th Sunday, Year A, Fifth Sunday in Ordinary Time

    The late Pentecostal preacher David du Plessis was once approached by a Christian who complained that people don’t seem thirsty for the Lord these days. Without missing a beat, du Plessis replied, “It’s not that they are not thirsty enough. It’s that we are not salty enough!” Since moisture ...read more

    The Gospel Succeeds Even In An Age Of Fecklessness Series

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Jan 11, 2020
     | 2,665 views

    We need to continue on the path we were set on by Jesus long ago–the path to holiness. That means giving up everything of this world that keeps us from imaging Jesus and Mary.

    Tuesday of the First Week in Course 2020 Saint Mark gets right to the point, just like the high priest Eli. But Saint Mark gets the whole picture, and Eli does not. Mark’s Gospel is designed to demonstrate to his Roman audience–and us–that Jesus Christ is the Son of God and Messiah. Look how few ...read more

    Abraham's Revival Series

     | 2,023 views

    Abraham’s faith is a model for Christians, because we are his successors by faith (Galatians 3:29). Revival of our faith is modeled after his life (Genesis 12-25).

    Abraham’s faith is a model for Christians, because we are his successors by faith (Galatians 3:29). Revival of our faith is modeled after his life (Genesis 12-25).

    based on 4 ratings
     | 3,756 views

    There seemed to be a lot more drama surrounding the death of Jesus – earthquakes, curtains being torn at the Temple, darkness covered the earth. The resurrection was done quietly without any witnesses to the actual moment of resurrection.

    Easter 2021 The Road to Emmaus There seemed to be a lot more drama surrounding the death of Jesus – earthquakes, curtains being torn at the Temple, darkness covered the earth.

    Seeing is not believing!

    Ants In The Pants – John 20: 19 - 31 Intro: If I had written the account of the resurrection of Jesus, it would have been a little bit different.

    It took some time to process the traumatic and surprising events of Holy Week

    3rd Sunday of Easter When something traumatic happens in your family, perhaps a death or serious injury, do you find often that there’s at least a temptation toward chaos? This is especially true if one of the key linchpins in the family is taken out of commission for a time, or even permanently. ...read more

    The Hour To Wake From Sleep

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Nov 25, 2025
     | 124 views

    St. Paul writes to the Romans today, and his words are perfect directions for the time of Advent. We must know the time, the hour to rise from sleep.

    First Sunday of Advent 2025 The Introit psalm of today’s Advent liturgy is attributed to King David, who is clearly praying in a time of difficulty. He cries, “I lift up my soul to you, O my God. In you have I trusted; let me not be put to shame, nor let my enemies exult over me. Let none who hope ...read more
