Sunday; the perfect day to give thanks and praise to God for all the blessings he has given us. This psalm calls out to us to raise our voices in praise to God and to share our joy with others. We have been gifted with salvation. We can live our lives knowing that Jesus has conquered sin and death.

The life of a Christian is a life of total selflessness. Everything we do, should be done out of love and never out of selfish ambition. No, that is the height of all selfishness. It is God's will for us that we will be able to give - financially and in kind - with our whole hearts and never wo

We read, "For the trumpet will sound and the dead will be raised!" This is the promise! We might question the Catholic doctrine of the Assumption of Mary, which is celebrated on this date, but it is pretty hard to question the number of appearances that have been attributed to Mary. Whether

I wonder what God would say today about the world in which we live! I have a feeling that he would still find a rebellious house; even among those who call themselves Christian. Christianity is more than the name of a religion; it is a way of life. I'm not sure that the non-Christians of today

In this verse, we are assured that all who have died, who were believers of Christ, will also be resurrected on the day of Christ's return. Paul refers to believers who have passed on as those who are "sleeping" which implies that their state is temporary; they will be woken up at a lat

The gospel account of the feeding of the five thousand is so familiar we might be tempted to tune out. After all, we know the ending! How does this relate to us? We need to be a welcoming community of believers, one that believes in radical hospitality, but are we welcoming, is our hospitable attit

The Spirit of God, the Holy Spirit, that resides within us does not cause us to fear. No, it is through the Spirit of God we are able to love live God, have peace in times of distress, and operate with a clear and sound mind. These are not things of the world; they are part of God. Consider it a pr
