    This the story of the prodigal son and how went from be a lie of the party and seeing the light.

    “No Place Like Home” SUBTITLED: “Party All The Time” Luke 15: 11-32 INTRODUCTION I would like to leave with you this thought, “No Place Like Home” or if there was a subtitle to this message it would be, “Party All the Time”.

    Love your enemies

    There is a sign in the Princeton University Store basement which cleverly suggests: "Love your enemies—it will drive them crazy." Jesus’ ethical teaching is higher than this example because love of enemies is not a consequentialist ethic, hoping that the other person will change. Love ...read more

     | 4,239 views

    Relationships matter. In the Sermon on the Mount, Jesus had much to say about right relationships between His disciples, God--and each other. This is the first time Jesus used the phrase, "go thy way",

    Introduction: The Sermon on the Mount. How many of us love this passage of Scripture? Even though this was not the first message Jesus ever preached, He did preach it, and it was one of the longest messages anyone heard Him speak. He started this message with the Beatitudes, a series of sayings ...read more

    Like the two disciples on the road to Emmaus we to can encounter Jesus when we least expect to and where we least expect to find Him.

    If you had asked my parents what religion they were and how they had bought up their children they would have said, without hesitation, that they were Christians, and that we, my brothers Gary and Paul, and my sister Carol, and I, had been brought up in the Christian faith, except of course that my ...read more

  • Eleventh Sunday In Ordinary Time- B Mustard Seed Cooperation

     | 2,014 views

    The Atlantic began to come in; its mighty shoulders underneath the boats lifted—lifted until the derelict had to come. The youth had harnessed infinite energy to his task.

    Working in harmony with the processes of life in co-operation with God is how the Kingdom of God works, Jesus says. Its methods may be illustrated by the case of an old derelict ship that was to be lifted-up from the bottom of the sea. In one of the tidal rivers near New York, the building of a ...read more

    [Jail Ministry homily 13th Sunday B] Under Mosaic law, that woman was unclean all those years. Twelve years of medical treatments with no cure corroborates her once-significant financial status.

     | 1,575 views

    Complaining became the rubric under which the journey was interpreted.

    In our First Reading we heard Exodus 16:2, “The whole Israelite community grumbled against Moses and Aaron.” It reminds me of the story of a lady who was a veritable fount of complaints. Her pastor came by to see her one day and she began to enumerate some of her complaints: “The neighbor’s ...read more

  • Eighth Sunday In Ordinary Time Year C- Mote And Beam

    We get impatient with others who represent aspects of ourselves that we have pushed away

    Doctor Jesus is like an ophthalmologist and a psychologist in our Gospel today. He is speaking about projection. We get impatient with others who represent aspects of ourselves that we have pushed away.1 We are aware of all the mitigating factors that go into our own mistakes but not those ...read more

    Contributed by Paul Andrew on May 14, 2024
     | 1,272 views

    But when the father is a regular church-goer, but the mother is not, there is still a very good chance their children will continue in the faith.

    A man was out on the golf course. He spotted another man who seemingly had four caddies. “Why so many caddies?” the first man asked the second. The second golfer replied, “It’s my wife’s idea. She thinks I should spend more time with the kids.” I suspect he’s the same Dad who was asked by his ...read more

    Elijah went a day's journey into the desert, until he came to a broom tree and sat beneath it. He was the last remaining Prophet of the true religion left. He had just stood his ground against four-hundred pagan prophets of the fertility god Baal. Today’s pagan fertility god is In-Vitro ...read more

     | 2,131 views

    In the family of God, love is not optional but essential, and when we genuinely love each other as Jesus commanded, we experience unparalleled joy.

    Good morning, family. As we gather here today, I'm reminded of a quote from Pope Francis, "We learn many virtues in our Christian families. Above all, we learn to love, asking nothing in return." Today, we're going to talk about God's incredible love for us and the joy that comes when we, as His ...read more

  • Thirty-Second Sunday In Ordinary Time, C--The Sadducees

    Contributed by Paul Andrew on Oct 12, 2022
     | 1,439 views

    I believe the question I would have asked the Sadducees would be, “Was this woman taking out life insurance policies on all these husbands?”

    One of my seminary professors said that it’s easy to remember who the Sadducees were because since they denied that there is a resurrection, they were “so sad you see.” The Sadducees were the ancient version of modern liberal theologians. They were anti-supernaturalistic. They only accepted the ...read more

  • Noah: God's Preacher In The Midst Of Perverse Times

    Contributed by Donald Whitchard on Jul 2, 2023
     | 988 views

    Noah and the ark (Genesis 6-8) like everything else in Genesis, is authentic history with an authentic warning to get right with God before it is too late. It is a call from God for us to repent and be saved from the wrath to come.

    When we read about the events of Genesis, Chapters 6-8, we forget that this is not a children's story, but an actual historical event recorded by Moses dealing with the effects of sin upon the world and the fact of God's certain judgment. Noah's task was to not only build the ark ...read more

  • Despair

    Contributed by Scott Jensen on Mar 17, 2020
     | 6,729 views

    Sometimes, even faithful people can experience heartache to the point of losing hope. God knows what we're going through and He has a plan for us all.

    Opening and Introduction In our text today, Paul has a summary of one of his travels, and how it affected him. There was a time when things were so bad, that he lost all hope, and despaired of life itself. Despair is one of those words we don’t use every day. We talk about feeling down, sad, or ...read more
