Preparing for Glory

Mountaintop experiences are glorious, empowering, and wonderful. How do we navigate, survive, and live out our Christian vocation in the valleys between those peaks?

Community of the Beloved

What does a community of the beloved children of God look like in a world so concerned with personal gain and relationships of power?

Laughing With a Silver Tongue

Jesus is deeply concerned with the well-being of all people. Jesus casts it as a mutual responsibility. The kingdom of God is a place where all flourish because of their loving cooperation, not some at the expense of others.

Will You Come and Follow Me?

It is so easy to convince ourselves that we are not deserving of God's attention and love. That our failures and sins are more important in God's eyes than the goodness given to us at our creation. To forget that God's call is always good news.

Light and Glory

Today's festival demonstrates the faithfulness of the Holy Family, but also reminds us of the profundity of God's grace, the light in the darkness of John's gospel, the promise of redemption, the fulfillment of prophecy, and our own baptismal vows.
