  • The Light of Truth - 56

    This week on the Light of Truth Fr. Luuk O.P. is joined again by Fr. Philip and this week the discussion is on the journey through life. The period of Lent can be a representation of our journey through life, and has parallels with the Exodus story of the Israelites. Fr. Philip and Fr. Luuk look at some aspects of this journey, especially with the use of the Transfiguration as found in the Gospel of St. Luke.

    The music played in the live program on Radio Maria were:

    • Here I am  - Here I am - Lincoln Brewster
    • When we pray - Hills and Valleys - Tauren Well
    • God of All My Days - The Very Next Thing

    • Every Life Counts : Vicky

      On Wednesday 7th February the Commission for Studies organised a study day for the Irish Province of the Dominican Order on the issue of the referendum to amend the Irish Constitution which proposes to remove the right to life of the unborn. 

      Five speakers addressed the study day:

      • Fr. John Harris OP of the Studium presented the Thomistic understanding of human law.
      • Prof. Gerry Whyte of Trinity College Dublin presented the profound legal ramifications of the proposed amendment.
      • Ms. Maria Steen, a barrister at law and an accomplished journalist and social commentator presented the political background to the amendment and its disturbing effects on culture politically, socially and medically.
      • Finally two brave mothers from Every Life Counts, Tracy and Vicky, shared their own personal stories as parents of children who were diagnosed with a terminal condition.  They put a very human face on the issues that we will have to preach about and give guidance on. 

      • We invite you to listen to the talks and to reflect seriously on the issues involved and support the campaign to save the lives of babies by helping to defeat the referendum to repeal Article 4.3.3. of the Irish Constitution. 

        This forth talk is by Vicky from Every Life Counts (https://www.everylifecounts.ie)

              • The Light of Truth - 52

                This week on the Light of Truth Fr. Philip Mulryne O.P. joins Fr. Luuk O.P. to reflect on the second half of the first chapter of the Gospel according to St. John. This is where John the Baptist points out Jesus to the first discples. They follow Jesus, and when Jesus turns to them they ask where He stays. These disciples follow Jesus and stayed with Him, and this changed their lives for ever. The encounter with Jesus always changes our lives!

                • The Light of Truth - 51

                  This week on the Light of Truth Fr. Luuk Jansen O.P. looks at some of the people who feature in the Bible around the time of the Birth of Jesus. Sometimes there might be a temptation to say that it was easy for them to believe in Jesus as all these events happened before their eyes. However, if we ponder some of the stories and realise the faith that was needed it becomes clear that it was not plain sailing then either! Reflection on these events helps us to appreciate and deepen our own faith in return.

                  The music played in the live program on Radio Maria were:

                  • The Cross has the Final Word - Newsboys.
