Fr. Jack Johnson is our guest priest this week. He challenges us to think about how we, too, are shepherds like the Good Shepherd.
Gospel: Jn 10:11-18
The first disciples were able to see the resurrected Christ and have a meal with him. Present day disciples have the same opportunity: we see the resurrected Christ in our neighbors and around the table of the Eucharist.
Gospel: Lk 24:35-48
The opposite of faith is not doubt, the opposite of faith is certainty. Fr. Rob reflects on why doubt is a part of growing in our faith lives.
Gospel: Jn 20:19-31
The opposite of hope is despair, and as an Easter people we no longer have to despair, but trust in God's love, mercy, and hope for us.
Gospel: Jn 20:1-9
Fr. Rob focuses on Peter and Judas and how they react to their betrayal of Jesus. What can we learn from their responses?
Gospel: Mk 14:1—15:47
Life is a series of deaths and resurrections. Reflecting on these moments can help to prepare us for the Triduum, where we remember and commemorate the life, death, and resurrection of Jesus.
God's love is big and merciful - nothing can separate us from it.
Gospel: Jn 9:1-41
Jesus knows us and loves us. Jesus loves us despite our deepest secrets and the burdens we carry. We know this because of the conversation with the woman at the well.
Gospel: Jn 4:5-42
We never know what God has in store for us. We just need to trust that the plan is great and he will guide us through it.
Gospel: Mk 9:2-10
We lie. We lie to others. We lie to ourselves. Lent is a chance to look at the truth and try to do better.
Gospel: Mk 1:12-15
Lent is a time to renew our faith life, not punish ourselves. Fr. Rob reflects on Lent and its goodness.
Gospel: Mt 6:1-6, 16-18
Fr. talks about the leper and what we can learn from him and his gratitude for Jesus in his life.
Gospel:Mk 1:40-45
Simon's mother-in-law, whom Fr. Rob named Bertha for his homily, gave us a wonderful example of what gratitude looks like - gratitude is tangible. It's an act. It's service to the Body of Christ, the People of God, the stranger, the widow, the orphan.
Gospel: Mk 1:29-39
Scripture comforts us in our times of need and challenges us when we think we're always right. God is always shaping us to be better disciples to share the Good News.
Gospel: Mk 1:21-28
Mother Teresa said, "We can do no great things, only small things with great love." Jesus called fishermen who thought they would never do anything great. They did small things with great love that transcended time. We, too, are called to do small things with the great love of God.
Gospel: Mk 1:14-20
Fr. Rob reminds us that we're all a little bit like Peter. Sometimes we get it, and sometimes we don't. But, the good news is that God loves us either way.
Gospel: Jn 1:35-42
Judas and Herod rejected the Good News. How might we embrace the Good New, embrace Jesus and live in the light?
Gospel: Mt 2:1-12
Mary held a lot of things in her heart throughout Jesus' life. Fr. Rob reflects on what we can learn from her and from keeping the memory of God's work in our lives at the forefront.
Gospel:Lk 2:16-21
We love our families but we don't always like them or agree with them. It's important to remember that Jesus was born into a family too and may have had similar feelings as you with your family. Fr. Rob reflects on this and what it means for us.
Gospel: LK 2:22-40
Go Lions! Fr. Rob relates the unexpectedness of the Lions clinching the division with the unexpectedness of a Savior being born in a stable, in the town of Bethlehem.
Merry Christmas!
Gospel: Lk 2:1-14
