    A SCOURGE OF SMALL CORDS. John 2:13-22. It was Passover, and the city of Jerusalem was packed with pilgrims who had gathered to commemorate Israel’s deliverance out of slavery in Egypt. Not only was it a solemn religious celebration, but also a great national statement that defied all who would ...read more

    We can do our part to set our parish on fire with devotion to the joy of the Gospel

    Thursday of 29th Week in Course Joy of the Gospel St. Paul had during his Christian life on earth at least one experience that he characterized as being lifted up to the heavens.

     | 3,996 views

    We will be judged on our service to the poor--but do our social systems make it easy or difficult to do so?

    Thursday of 33rd week in course 2015 Joy of the Gospel Two things tie our Scriptures together today. The obvious one is that they are texts written in or about a time of injustice and disaster. In the first reading, the Syrian king Antiochus IV has decreed that all his subjects would act like ...read more

    Before we can go out into the world to share the good news of Christ, we must first prepare our own hearts. An Advent sermon for Holy Communion Sunday.

    Preparing the Way for Christmas Mark 1:1-8 This is the Good News about Jesus the Messiah, the Son of God.

    The Power Of The Holy Spirit

     | 8,537 views

    No one can stand in the way of God and not be punished. Christianity has nothing to do with the magic and superstition of the world. The power of God’s Word and the power of the Holy Spirit overcomes them all.

    Have you ever wondered what is it like to be commissioned by God to do his work in our world? In the reading we heard from Acts, we see an example of one of the earliest ordinations or commissioning services in the church. Of the five men Luke mentions, four were Jews born outside the Holy Land ...read more

    St Matthew, St Peter, St. Catherine And The Medieval Papacy Series

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Sep 16, 2017
     | 4,229 views

    Human sin and human weakness will never be absent from even the hierarchy, and, as Catherine taught, prayer and repentance must always be part of our arsenal against evil.

    Feast of St. Matthew 2017 Revolution/Reformation The apostle Matthew was someone who nobody would pick out to be the disciple of the Jewish prophet, Our Lord Jesus Christ. Sometimes called Levi, his Hebrew name, Mattheus was the worst kind of collaborator with the Romans. He is called a te????? ...read more

    Gentleness

    Contributed by Bala Samson on Oct 3, 2013
     | 4,630 views

    I must say this, today there is a sadistic and egoistic pleasure in being snobby, overbearing, rude and curt? We have just forgotten to be kind, gentle and pleasant!

    Gentleness… Acts 11:2’And when Peter came up to Jerusalem, those of the circumcision contended with him…’ It is sad that many are skeptical about fasting! Let us not do fasting as a ritual or a religious custom like many do these days without any change in them. Are you ...read more

    The Request God Never Turns Down Series

    based on 1 rating
     | 4,457 views

    We don't have to look at Jesus's promise "Seek and you shall find" like a disappointed kid at Christmas, but with the light of faith. There's at least one prayer we always get a "yes" to.

    Thursday of 27th Week in Course Lumen Fidei Today’s Gospel is written for adults, but the problem is that even in old age we tend to read it like an eight-year-old waiting for Christmas. We read “Ask, and it will be given you; seek, and you will find; knock, and it will be opened to ...read more

    based on 8 ratings
     | 4,607 views

    I have read some farfetched renderings of Genesis 6:4 which range from the "sons of God" being angels to them being "aliens". The Nephilim mentioned in this verse, receive the same kind of treatment.

    Genesis 6 - Part 3 1. My husband is out of this world. I have read some fairly farfetched renderings of Genesis 6:4 which range from the "sons of God" being angels to them being "aliens".

    "Evangelization and interreligious dialogue, far from being opposed, mutually support and nourish one another."

    Thursday in Second Week of Easter 2016 Joy of the Gospel Today we hear the story of Peter’s witness before the Sanhedrin in the months following the first Pentecost. To the authorities who had forbade preaching about Jesus, Peter reminds them that the Law of God goes before any human law. ...read more

    God’s Goal In Bringing Hardship Series

    Contributed by Jim Butcher on May 20, 2020
     | 3,876 views

    It's shocking to many that God sometimes is the cause of hardship in our lives. When that happens, what is He hoping to accomplish?

    “HE SAID WHAT?!”: Sometimes hardship is from God. - Amos 4:6-12. - This passage might have been shocking to you. “What do you mean God did all these things?” Today we sometimes think of Him exclusively as a kindly grandfather who would never say a cross word to anyone. That, however, is not ...read more

    A call to humility. A warning against stumbling blocks. Lost sheep found.

    AS A LITTLE CHILD. Matthew 18:1-14. 1. The disciples came to Jesus, openly and unashamedly asking, “Who is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven?” (Matthew 18:1).

    Judgment begins at the house of God.

    A WITHERING RELIGION. Matthew 21:12-22. Today’s passage brings together two events which are not unrelated to each other: the cleansing of the Temple, and the withering of the fig tree. Both are figurative of the state and changing status of the old Jewish faith at the dawn of the gospel ...read more
