Daily Mass: You are witnesses of these things. Catholic Inspiration

After the resurrection Jesus appears to the Apostles and explains how he has fulfilled the prophecies within the Sacred Scriptures; that it was necessary for the Christ to suffer, die and be raised on the third day.  He concludes this passage with a powerful exhortation, “You are witnesses of these things.”  Our faith was built on the witness of others, and our lived example of faith helps others encounter the Risen Lord today.

Catholic Inspiration – Advent Retreat – Seeking the Face of Christ

Three Great Things

I have begun to include podcasts of my homilies and talks.  Forgive me if the formatting is a little awkward…I am learning!

This Advent reflection was one of the talks given at a retreat that was offered on December 6, 2014.  Six categories are touched upon in this talk:

  • Sacraments
  • Scriptures
  • Prayer
  • Service
  • Sacrifice
  • Fellowship

These areas are meant to help us do two things:

  1. Grow in our ability to see the Face of Christ
  2. Strengthen us to loving serve Christ wherever we see him
