    Grumbling Pharisees are taught a lesson about loving the lost and what it is that makes Heaven rejoice.

    TITLE: Jesus, the Friend of Sinners TEXT: Luke 15:1-10 INTRO: Do you remember the nursery rhyme, Little Bo Peep?

    the way of beauty is insidious, and effective

    Thursday of the 25th Week in Course 2016 Joy of the Gospel This is one of my favorite festivals, the one the Anglicans call “St. Michael and All Angels.” Not exactly right, because we have another feast in just a couple of days for our guardian angels.

    Mary understood, as every Christian should, that any great thing that happens in our walk with Christ is due to the Lord’s graceful action and will.

    Tuesday of 25th Week in Course 2020 Today’s story from the life of Jesus Christ is from St. Luke’s Gospel, and it looks like proof of alienation of Jesus from His extended family, doesn’t it?

    Prayer starts with God, not us.

    GOD IS MY HELPER. Psalm 54:1-7. The superscription to this Psalm associates it with a particular act of betrayal. David was on the run from King Saul (1 Samuel 23:15); and his neighbours, members of his own tribe, reported his whereabouts to his pursuers (1 Samuel 23:19). However, in the ...read more

    TRUST IN THE LORD. Psalm 37:1-9. PSALM 37:1.

     | 2,260 views

    God has delivered us up to the results of sin, with this horrible virus causing all kinds of evils, even people dying without the sacraments, and with politicians promising to take away, and actually taking away our God-given rights of free speech and religion and assembly.

    First Sunday in Advent 2020 Watch! These are reflections for the new liturgical year, beginning with this first Sunday of Advent in the plague year. But every year, month and day is a time to get closer to the awesome loving kindness of our God, brought to earth in the passion, death and ...read more

    There are no such thing as coincidence; God orchestrates and we are called to do the right thing even when no one is watching.

    Last week we noted from 1 Samuel Chapter 23 that King Saul and his wicked partners were in pursuit of David. King Saul had David in a corner and was ready to kill him but a miracle happened! After all the planning, plotting, scheming, lying, and cheating to get David killed, although King Saul had ...read more

  • A Final Personification Of Wisdom

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Aug 15, 2015
    based on 4 ratings
     | 8,993 views

    Wisdom is compared to the virtuous woman in this closing poem of the book of Proverbs: the very personification of Christ, and of all that we all should be in Him.

    A FINAL PERSONIFICATION OF WISDOM. Proverbs 31:10-31. The book of Proverbs closes with an acrostic poem which commends the virtues of a certain (literally) “strong woman” (Proverbs 31:10).

    St. Thomas of Canterbury lived a life in service to God, a service in love and defense of His Church and people.

    St. Thomas of Canterbury Mass (December 29) Thirteen Days of Christmas There is no doubt what happened on December 29, 1170, but what one thinks of it depends very much on a connection to the people and places of twelfth century England. On that day, four English knights of Norman descent came ...read more
