Sunday – Ordinary Time – Week 27 – Year B

Every life is worth living. This is the message for this Sunday, Respect Life Sunday. Today at every parish throughout our nation, priests and deacons are preaching on one topic, this topic. Let’s hope that it has an impact on our hearts and minds.

Sunday – Ordinary Time – Week 26 – Year B

Sometimes Christ’s words are very strong, right? When we hear strong words, they make us wonder. If God loves us, why would he warn us with such vivid imagery? These shocking statements stop us in our tracks. But sometimes we need to stop, pray, and think. Sometimes we need strong words, and God knows this.

Guide me, Lord, along the [...]
