    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Oct 8, 2011
     | 5,623 views

    To respond to Christ's command, we must take time to reflect on the Word of God and the words of God, so that we can spread that word to a world in desperate need.

    Monday of 28th Week in Course 10 October 2011 Verbum Domini The gospel of God was promised long ago through the prophets of God in the holy scriptures.

    This short talk given at a Communion service during Holy Week asks three questions: What must we reject, how must we run and where must we look?

    The New Testament scholar Raymond Brown wrote this: “Using vivid athletic imagery the author [of Hebrews] tells his readers what they must reject, how they must run and where they must look.” 1: What we must reject: “Let us throw off everything that hinders and the sin that so easily entangles” ...read more

    The abortion supporter treats the unborn child with less respect than they would demand for a puppy.

    Thursday of Fifth Week in Course Joy of the Gospel This Gospel is one for the thoughtless atheist to seize and wring out for every drop of abuse of the Catholic truth. It looks on the surface like Jesus sinning. He is verbally abusing this poor pagan woman, whose only offense is to ask for ...read more

    Here we are healed of sin, nourished with the Eucharist, anointed for service and mission, and ultimately commended into the hands of the Father when we finish our earthly journey.

    Tuesday of the First Week in Lent 2020 The Way Out of the Hole We’re In As we continue in this first week our Lenten journey, our informal pre-Easter retreat, it’s good to consider just where we are, or would be, without Jesus Christ and His Church. We start out our life in a kind of hole, or ...read more

    You say you abide in Christ, then be imitators of Christ.

    Those of you who say you abide in Christ ought to make every effort to walk the path that he walked (1 John 2:6). "Since you are God's dear children, you must try to be like him" (Ephesians 5:1, GNT). To live as a Christ-follower is the promise we made when we embarked on this ...read more

    The journey in the wilderness had given the Israelites to meet constant challenges. Either they went without water or food. They were in need of always the intervention of God. The Lord met them on every step of their lives. They had water, food, and meat.

    Exodus 17:1–7 Rephidim & Smitten Rock Rephidim: Now, Exodus 17:1-7 explains the problems of scarcity of water or the issue is water. The Rephidim and Smitten Rock show the ‘un-excusableness on Man’s part and the infinite mercy on God’s part’ (Dr Pink). The word Rephidim means the resting ...read more

     | 728 views

    What is it to have mercy? What is it to have guilt? No doubt we have at some point felt that we are no longer to be forgiven for some sin or transgression. But then there is something called faith.

    In verses 12-13: Is it not wonderful to know that Christ has reached down and forgiven us from our sins, and then to call us into a ministry, no matter what that ministry is? Look at Paul and what he was before he came to know Christ as his Savior. He denounced the teachings of Christ, and he ...read more
