    Vineyard View of the Christian Life (opens the original)

    Excerpt · English

    The lesson is simple: Stay in the vineyard. Sunday, Sept. 20, the 25th Sunday in Ordinary Time. Mass readings: Isaiah 55:6-9; Psalm 145:2-3, 8-9, 17-18; Philippians 1:20c-24, 27a; Matthew 20:1-16a. This is one of those parables that challenges our worldly way of thinking. We are tempted to side with the laborers who worked the longest, thinking that their being paid the same amount as those who worked only for an hour is unfair. Think very carefully before asking God to be “fair.” What we need i

    The Cross Brings Life (opens the original)

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    In order to gain heaven, we must die to this world. Sunday, Aug. 30, is the 22nd Sunday in Ordinary Time. Mass readings: Jeremiah 20:7-9; Psalm 63:2, 3-4, 5-6, 8-9; Romans 12:1-2; Matthew 16:21-27. In the Gospel, the Lord illustrates the cross as a ladder to heaven. The text says, “Jesus began to show his disciples that he must go to Jerusalem and suffer greatly from the elders, the chief priests, and the scribes, and be killed and on the third day be raised.” The Lord announces the cross as wel

    ‘You Are Peter, and Upon This Rock I Will Build My Church’ (opens the original)

    Excerpt · English

    The Gospel sets forth the biblical basis for the papacy. Sunday, Aug. 23, is the 21st Sunday in Ordinary Time. Mass readings: Isaiah 22:19-23; Psalm 138:1-2, 2-3, 6, 8; Romans 11:33-36; Matthew 16:13-20. The Gospel sets forth the biblical basis for the papacy, for Peter’s successors are the popes. Then Jesus asks the Twelve, “Who do you say that I am?” We are taught here not merely that Peter spoke what was true, but also how he came to know the truth: God the Father revealed it to him. There is

    The message is clear: ‘Keep your eyes on Christ!’ Sunday, Aug. 9, is the 19th Sunday in Ordinary Time.

The message is clear: “Keep your eyes on Christ!” “Jesus made the disciples get into a boat and precede him to the other side, while he ... went up on the mountain by himself to pray.” Jesus, in drawing back from his disciples, exhibits the mysterious truth that God sometimes seems to hide his fa

    The Lord still bids us to get busy and join him in feeding the multitudes. Sunday, Aug. 2, is the 18th Sunday in Ordinary Time. Mass readings: Isaiah 55:1-3; Psalm 145:8-9, 15-16, 17-18; Romans 8:35, 37-39; Matthew 14:13-21. The Gospel is the very familiar Miracle of the Loaves and the Fishes (or Feeding of the Five Thousand). After Jesus “withdrew in a boat to a deserted place by himself,” crowds “followed him on foot from their towns. When he disembarked and saw the vast crowd, his heart was m
