This week Father Michael reminds us that Jesus Christ is the Good Shepherd, the shepherd whose voice all His sheep know.
This week Father Tew reminds us that, even in these times of common depression and despair, because Jesus Christ rose from the dead, what we do matters.
Today Father Michael preaches on the story of Doubting Thomas initially refusing to believe in the resurrected Christ. May we, in the words of Christ, “not disbelieve, but believe.”
In Isaiah 65:17-25, the Prophet foretold of Israel’s return from exile. Although many rejoiced at what God had done, some were disappointed. In this week’s message, Fr. Daniel Logan connects Isaiah’s vision of the New Heavens and the New Earth with the New Jerusalem in Revelation 21. When we are disappointed in this life, we are to always look for God’s final fulfillment of Isaiah’s prophecy.
This Advent we begin at the end. Jesus told his disciples in Mark 13:24-37 to stay awake, for no one knows when the Son of Man will return to judge the living and the dead. As Christians, we are living between Christ’s first and second advents. This week’s message, Fr. Michael Novotny encourages us to be prepared and wait for his coming.
Do you struggle with doubt? As he sat it prison John the Baptist sent word to Jesus: “Are you the one who is to come, or shall we look for another?” This week’s message from Fr. Michael Novotny encourages us to share God’s work in our lives with others. As we do so, we assure our neighbors that Jesus is the One to come, that their doubting might turn to rejoicing.
Are you ready for Christmas? This week’s message comes from Fr. Gerry McDermott on preparing for the celebration of Christ’s first coming. In this week’s gospel passage, John the Baptist cries out, “Repent, for the kingdom of heaven is at hand” (Matt. 3:1-12). Listen to this important reminder to confess our sins and prepare Him room in our hearts.
