Seeking Christ & His Kingdom (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Jesus says in the Gospel of Matthew chapter 6, "Seek first (above all other things) the Kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things shall be added unto you." There is a theme that runs throughout Holy Scripture about seeking after God, longing for Him, and pursuing Him. Today we look at this theme of seeking Christ, that He may move our hearts toward a greater longing for Him, that He alone becomes the treasure of our soul.
The Cross and the Greatness God Calls Us To (opens the original)
Read excerpt
This sermon contrasts the Christian way of the Holy Cross with the comfortable pseudo-faith of Moralistic Therapeutic Deism, which reduces God to a distant helper whose purpose is to make life pleasant and secure. Christ, however, does not descend from the Cross to save Himself but willingly embraces suffering to save humanity, revealing the Cross as “the power of God and the wisdom of God.” Like the two thieves crucified beside Christ, every person must decide how to respond to suffering: eithe
Obedience to Christ that Heals the Soul (opens the original)
Read excerpt
In the Gospel of Luke and chapter 17, we have the testimony of the 10 lepers who are healed by Christ and the one Samaritan leper who returns to give thanksgiving.

Honoring the Mother of God at Her Nativity (opens the original)
Read excerpt
The miraculous conception and birth of the Blessed Virgin Mary removed the shame of barrenness from her parents, Saints Joachim & Anna. She was a precursor of the One Who would come through her to remove the shame of us all, our Lord Jesus Christ. To honor this most blessed among women, we look to the types fulfilled by her in the Old Testament. She is the fulfillment of the Ark of the Covenant, the burning bush, and the golden candle stand in the Tabernacle. As we do so, we remember that when w
The Fallen, the Broken, and the House of Healing (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Our Gospel reading today is Jesus' teaching of the Parable of the Good Samaritan. The harmony of the early Church Fathers teach us that this parable is actually the great parable of our salvation; God's wisdom and design for how He would bring mankind to salvation. Jesus is the Samaritan who sees the fallen man robbed and beaten half dead. It is He who begins to heal him with oil and wine (the Sacraments). Jesus brings the broken man into the inn (the Church, the House of Healing) for the comple
