    In the witness of the martyrs we see the Word of God made visible and effective in the world; the martyrs give the ultimate testimony to the Truth.

    August 13, 2012 Blessed Jakob Gapp Verbum Domini “The interpretation of sacred Scripture would remain incomplete were it not to include listening to those who have truly lived the word of God: namely, the saints.

  • Fifteenth Sunday In Ordinary Time

    Contributed by Paul Andrew on May 31, 2022
     | 1,148 views

    I can’t help but think it was Mother Teresa’s having to suffer the loss of her father, who was murdered when she was a child, that directed her to a life of mercy.

    Jesus is asked 183 questions of which he only answers 3. The expert asked a question wanting to test Jesus and he got an answer. But in the story about the Good Samaritan, Jesus is testing him—and us. The man beaten and robbed was going from Jerusalem to Jericho. So were the priest and Levite, ...read more

     | 758 views

    Often what we perceive as doubt is not really that severe. We experience times in which faith in Christ seems overwhelmingly demanding.

    We may cluck our tongues and roll our eyes at Thomas in this snippet from John’s Gospel. “How can the unanimous testimony,” we wonder, “of those who saw Jesus that Easter evening still leave Thomas, absent without leave then, in doubt of the Resurrection?” At first glance he just looks irreparably ...read more

  • We Are His Disciples

     | 250 views

    How do we become disciples of Jesus?

    John 1:43-51 “Speak, Lord, for your servants are listening.” Give us ears to hear Jesus calling, “Follow me.” Help us find ways to “Come and see.” The calling of disciples is a mystery, something profound, sacred, and beyond complete human comprehension. It usually involves divine intervention in ...read more
