Fr Ripperger: Levels of Spiritual Warfare
The above video is provided by the Sensus Fidelium apostlate. The following transcript is provided by WQPH. I tell people that I’m becoming famous just by telling everybody what the saints say.

“The greatest persecution of the Church comes not from her enemies without, but arises from sin within the Church, and that the Church thus has a deep need to relearn penance, to accept purification, to learn forgiveness on the one hand, but also the need for justice. Forgiveness does not replace justice.”
Pope Benedict XVI

Hunger and Thirst
We’ve all felt hungry and thirsty, but once we’ve taken a bite to eat or had a few swallows of a cool beverage, those feelings vanish and we forget about them. But hunger and thirst trigger survival instincts in us, which Jesus knew while hanging on the Cross when he said, “I thirst.” Our Lord’s […]

Ask Father Maurice: “The Way” and the “Nazarene sect” mentioned in Acts
In the New Testament we hear Jesus saying “I am the Way, the Truth and the Life.” After Jesus’s Resurrection, the Apostles were teaching and the words “the Way,” or the “Nazarene sect” are used in referencing Jesus’s teachings of the resurrection and salvation. It is not familiar to me. Does this text appear in any of the Sunday readings (A, B, C years)?

Gilbert: really hopeful things
I’ve been thinking a lot lately about hope–just the simple idea of it. Of course, we need hope more than ever today, but more importantly, we need real hope, which is to say: we need hope in real things. A year ago, it would have been a more difficult point to make–the idea of hoping […]

Ask Father Maurice: “the tables on which was the bread of the Presence”
In the Old Testament, there is a line which says “the tables on which was the bread of the Presence.” Is this about bread given to honor God’s presence?

Fr. Mitch Pacwa’s homily for Tuesday, August 26th, 2020
Jesus said,“Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, you hypocrites.You are like whitewashed tombs, which appear beautiful on the outside,but inside are full of dead men’s bones and every kind of filth.Even so, on the outside you appear righteous,but inside you are filled with hypocrisy and evildoing. “Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, you hypocrites.You build […]

Fr Maurice: Walking On Waters of Our Fears
Dear Holy People of God, In today’s Gospel, Matthew 14:22-33, the Lord encounters us in an emotion that is much more commonplace: fear. Many things can cause us to be afraid: the fear of the unknown, the fear of tomorrow, the fear that things might not go as I hope, the fear of newness, the […]

Fr. Mitch Pacwa’s Homily for the Dedication of the Basilica of Saint Mary Major in Rome
There are four major basilicas in Rome. One of them is that of St. Mary Major. It was dedicated in August of 431 AD. And it would seem odd that of all the churches, I do not think we celebrate the dedication of St. Peters or St. Paul, but we celebrate this one. And the […]
