  • Liturgy Live - 6th Sunday in Ordinary Time - Self Sacrificing Service

    This week on the podcast we talk about leprosy and how we approach those who are suffering from health issues. This is a huge issue right now, how do we care for others? The instructions of the Old Testament were not to exclude people from being served with love, Jesus fulfilled the law and he served the lepers and healed them. Sometimes we take rules that "protect us" and block the self sacrificing service that we are called to live. Be not afraid

  • Liturgy Live - 4th Sunday in Advent

    This week's podcast we discuss King David's desire to give to the Lord. The desire to give to the Lord is good. This interaction with King David and the Lord shows us that the Lord wants to give us more than we can imagine when we desire to give of ourselves for His glory. This culminates in the great fiat of Mary. Her desire to be the handmaid of the Lord is returned  in her role as Mother of the Savior and the Queen of Heaven.

  • Liturgy Live - 2nd Sunday in Advent - Prepare the Way of the Lord
    This week on the podcast we talk about how Isaiah called for the proclamation of the "good news" in earnest. In his time and in the fulfillment of Christ, we are to proclaim the Gospel of our Salvation. St Peter reminds us that the judgement is coming, we need to be prepared because we do not know when. Each generation has had signs to encourage us to turn to Christ before it is too late. Christ desires for all to repent, and we should be praying for that to fulfill the desires of God. 

    Fr Ian announced that we have a new platform for Catholics to converse outside of the normal Social Media sphere. HealthyMinds is a community platform you can join and it functions similar to social media but without the ads and the drama. We are hosting an Advent Meditations Group on that platform that contains daily meditations on the Mass readings and a very short video for more understanding and ideas to contemplate. Come join us! https://healthyminds.webflow.io

  • Liturgy Live - 29th Sunday in Ordinary Time - Strange Authority

    This week on the podcast we talk about how God gave power and authority to King Cyrus, even though he was a Gentile. Through Cyrus the Isrealites were able to return to Jerusalem and rebuild the temple. God was able to use Cyrus as a tool, even though he was not the tool that was preferred or expected. In our lives it is good to contemplate how God is using imperfect people, maybe even strange authority, to bring about His will.

  • Liturgy Live - 22nd Sunday in Ordinary Time - Fire in my Heart

     This week we talk about the raw reality that the Prophet Jeremiah expresses in the reading. Being a faithful servant to the Lord is extremely difficult. It always has been. We won't always understand what God is doing, when we are confused we might even try to go against His will. Discernment and prayer for God's will even in confusion is necessary

  • Liturgy Live - 21st Sunday in Ordinary Time - Who Has Known

     This week on the Podcast we talk about the authority given to flawed humans by God. How abusing that Authority will bring punishment upon yourself and the people you lead. The other side is to remember the humanity of the authority, and understand the requirement to charitably follow the lead. As long as that lead is not sinful. God has a plan in the midst of corruption.

  • Liturgy Live - 12th Sunday in Ordinary Time - Fear No One
    In the readings this week we encounter the Prophet Jeremiah and his inner battle. He is tempted to denounce the Lord, he is also being watched by his friends for any misstep to trap him in. These inner temptations of Jeremiah are the real temptations of our culture at the moment. We are reminded in that moment to trust in the Lord. Jesus in the Gospel says to "Fear no one." We are called to live in the midst of the chaos in the trust of Christ.

  • Liturgy Live - Corpus Christi
    We are being tested during this time of crisis. God is looking to see if you remember that He provides for you. He will guide you and provide for you. We are being allowed to feel the hunger for the Body and Blood of Christ, how are we to respond to the invitation back to Mass? This is a time of conversion, healing, and trust.

  • Liturgy Live - Most Holy Trinity - Conversion is the Way
    Our world is in chaos, and we are in need of hope. Conversion of heart to our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ and reception of the Sacraments and living a moral life is the only way forward. What a controversial statement. We believe that Christ is the Way. Christ told us Himself, He is the Way. When will we start actually living the Gospel? When we live the Gospel we will love God and love neighbour. Chaos cannot thrive in a relationship of virtue in love. Each of us needs to grow in continuous conversion and renewal of heart. Then we will see the change that we long for.

  • Liturgy Live - Pentecost - Peace for Pentecost
    This week on the podcast we talk about the Gifts given to us by the Holy Spirit and how we can identify and use them during this difficult time. We also talk about the Peace Christ gives us in the upper room to anticipate all of these gifts and be ableto work as one. We are called to live in the peace of Christ, and from this place of peace the gifts we are given can bear fruit.--
