Rich Thoughts episodes

  • #270 - 12th Sunday in OT (C)
    At Blessed John XXIII Parish, Knoxville. Galatians 3:28 -- sometimes called "The Magna Carta of Humanity" -- challenges us to truly respect diversity in other people. Why do we so often fail to respect diversity? Perhaps Luke 9:23 can help!

  • #269 - 11th Sunday in OT (C)
    At St. Thomas More Newman Center, Columbus, OH. The four women mentioned in Luke 7:36-8:3 have gotten a bad rap over the years… but how often do *WE* judge people by their past actions, too?
    10 min
  • #268 - 10th Wednesday in OT (I)
    At Blessed John XXIII Parish, Knoxville. Wrestling with 2 Corinthians 3:4-11. Interesting to pair it with our gospel passage, Matthew 5:17-19. Christ yesterday, today, and for ever!
    5 min
  • #266 - 10th Sunday in OT (C)
    At Blessed John XXIII Parish, Knoxville. Who is oppressed in our society today? Who is held captive? 1 Kings 17:17-24, Luke 7:11-17, and Pope Francis point out how we can hear the people who are voiceless.

  • #265 - Corpus Christi (C)
    At Blessed John XXIII Parish, Knoxville. Our readings today (Genesis 14:18-20, 1 Corinthians 11:23-26, and Luke 9:11-17) remind us that the Body and Blood of Christ is about MORE than the eucharistic elements of bread and wine at Mass. Challenging!
    15 min
  • #264 - Eucharistic Exposition
    At Blessed John XXIII Parish, Knoxville. Reflection on the nature of Eucharistic Exposition (or Adoration). References made to 1 Corinthians 11:17-29 and Luke 19:1-10.
    6 min
  • #263 - 8th Wednesday in OT (I)
    At Blessed John XXIII Parish, Knoxville. Passing over Mark 10:32-45 in order to focus on Sirach 36:1, 4-5a, 10-17. (Sirach is a deuterocanonical book of the Bible. It's sometimes called Ecclesiasticus, but NEVER Ecclesiastes.)
    5 min
  • #262 - Pentecost
    At Blessed John XXIII Parish, Knoxville. A message about the Holy Spirit's surprises on Saturday night… and a witnessing to a fresh surprise on Sunday afternoon!
