    Zacchaeus, Come Down!

    Contributed by Mark A. Barber on Mar 25, 2014
     | 8,563 views

    This is more than a cute little Vacation Bible Schools story.

    Zacchaeus, Come Down! Luke 19:1-10 Introduction Many of us can remember the Vacation Bible School song about Zacchaeus. “Zacchaeus was a wee little man, a wee little man was he.” We remember that the song tells us that he climbed up into a sycamore tree “for the Lord he wanted to see”. We also ...read more

    Peter’s words to slaves in the first century are relevant to our world in the twenty-first.

    I suspect that a number of you have heard the old story of the young man who was desperately seeking God’s guidance for some crucial issue in his life. For some reason he decided that the best way forward might be simply to allow his Bible to fall open randomly and then follow the wisdom of ...read more

    The Real Outcasts Series

     The tax collectors and prostitutes were not welcome by religious people. They were the lowest of the low.  According to the religious leaders tax collectors and prostitutes would have no part in the kingdom of God.  But in God’s eyes, who are the real outcasts?

    Intro to main points: The first son was rebellious but repented. The second son talked a good game but disobeyed his father. The command of the father was to work in the vineyard, therefore this parable is not only about salvation but also of Christian service. IN THIS PARABLE, JESUS TEACHES ...read more

    Don’t season regret with rebellion

    In the First Reading, the complaint was with the grapes, they were too sour to be eaten or made into wine despite the favorable conditions (Isaiah 5:1-7). In the Gospel, the complaint was with the vineyard workers, in other words, the religious leaders in Jesus' time who often killed the ...read more

    The Catechism teaches that the spouses are ministers of the sacrament of Matrimony by expressing their consent before the Church. They confer Christ’s grace upon each other (no. 1623).

    Today’s readings bring before us some fundamental teachings on marriage. Marriage requires a couple to prepare 4 types of "RINGS”: - The Engagement Ring - The Wedding Ring - The Suffer-Ring - The Endue-Ring 1) One highlight on marriage from Saint Pope John Paul II-- Is on what he calls ...read more

    “Nothing ever happens in the world that does not first happen inside a mind...”

    An illustration for those who deny the reality of concupiscence: A visitor was once being shown around an art gallery. The gallery contained some beautiful paintings which were universally acknowledged to be masterpieces. At the end of the tour the visitor said, "I don't think much of ...read more

    Twenty-Sixth Sunday In Ordinary Time, Year B: "When In Doubt, Cut It Out.”

    Contributed by Paul Andrew on Aug 15, 2024
     | 487 views

    It is not hyperbole to say that it is better to enter heaven maimed [one-armed, one-footed, and one-eyed] than to enter hell whole. That is literally true.

    “When Jesus exaggerated” is a book title, and there are countless articles on how Jesus uses exaggeration and hyperbole for effect, like we hear this Sunday; to literally cut off your hand or foot or gouge-out your eyes because then you won’t sin with them.1 However, “it is not hyperbole to say ...read more

    Twenty-Eighth Sunday In Ordinary Time, Year B: No One Is Good But God Alone

    The principle of “No one is good but God alone

    Jesus knew He was God and said so: He was accused of being God at his trial. Jesus revealed his divinity by miracles, and by His Resurrection, but he never says to the crowds, “Hey, everyone, I’m God.” In today’s Gospel, he goes undercover. To illustrate: In the TV show, Undercover Boss, a ...read more

    Once you accept the cup. Then your path to glory is by your service.

    Servant leadership. Blah-blah-blah. and so on; and so forth. Ever since Robert Greenleaf coined the term, there has been so much information out there on servant leadership that is too academic, or filed with unpractical generalizations like servant leadership is not command and control, nor ...read more

    God’s watchful eye.

    On the backside of a one-dollar bill, we are reminded that we are being watched; that eye on top of a pyramid is officially called “the eye of providence: God’s watchful eye.” Although the masons, still today a forbidden group for Catholics to join, adopted the image, the eye was actually added by ...read more

    What can we learn from this tax collector’s encounter with the Son of God

    The story of Zacchaeus Story: On 12th February 1809, in a one room log cabin with a dirt floor on a farm near Hodgenville, Kentucky, a baby boy was born. When he was only 9 years-old, his mother died. He was a boy with rugged determination. And although he only had less than a year of formal ...read more

    A study message on the calling of Matthew

    9 As Jesus went on from there, he saw a man named Matthew sitting at the tax collector’s booth. "Follow me," he told him, and Matthew got up and followed him. 10 While Jesus was having dinner at Matthew’s house, many tax collectors and "sinners" came and ate with him and his disciples. 11 When the ...read more

    The Response To Jesus: Zacchaeus Series

    Contributed by Daren Mitchell on Nov 20, 2012
     | 11,690 views

    So, Zacchaeus was named bright, clean or pure. Unfortunately he grew up to be the complete opposite. One of the first things we learn of Zacchaues from Luke 19 is that he is the chief tax collector in the region. He’s not just a tax collector like Matt

    The Hebrew name Zacchaeus is taken from a Hebrew word Zakak which means to be bright, clean or pure. I can imagine that when Zaccheaus was a wee little baby his mom and dad had bright hopes for him. Names had significant meaning for the ancient Jew. Mary named her son Jesus the Greek version of ...read more
