In our Gospel Lesson this morning, we meet up with Jesus just after he returns “home.” We don’t always think of Jesus having a home, but this was not his own anyway. In this case, home seems to mean Peter’s home in Capernaum. Shortly before our Gospel, both Matthew and Mark share a similar record ...read more

Over millennium man has asked the question: “WHO am I. WHERE did I come from?” Man’s perception of reality as HE knows it, is restricted to a dotted space in the VAST universe. It starts with a beginning (The present) and has an end (The future). He is conceived as a biological ...read more
