  • #228 - 2nd Monday of Lent
    At Blessed John XXIII Parish, Knoxville. Do not judge; be merciful (Luke 6:36-38). That's even what the blameless Daniel does when speaking of the Babylonian exile (Daniel 9:4-10)!

  • #227 - 2nd Sunday of Lent (C)
    At Blessed John XXIII Parish, Knoxville. Examining the story of Abram, our father in faith (Genesis 12:1-4 and 15:1-12, 17-18). An example of occupying ourselves with heavenly things even in the midst of earthly things (Phil 3:17-4:1, Luke 9:28-36).

  • #225 - 1st Monday of Lent
    At Blessed John XXIII Parish, Knoxville. Two very challenging Scripture passages (Leviticus 19:1-2, 11-18 and Matthew 25:31-46), to get us in the right frame of mind for Lent. DON'T FORGET: the main goal of Lent is spiritual growth!
    5 min
  • #224 - Ash Wednesday
    At Blessed John XXIII Parish, Knoxville. In the Book of Joel, God commands the people to sound the trumpet and publicly repent. Jesus tells people not to blow a trumpet when they give alms, and he tells them to fast and pray in secret. What gives?

  • #223 - 5th Monday in OT (I)
    At Blessed John XXIII Parish, Knoxville. The surprising origin of the creation story of Genesis 1. The similarities between Genesis 1 and the pagan myth that our Jewish ancestors plagiarized aren't as important as the differences!
    7 min
  • #222 - 5th Sunday in OT (C)
    At Blessed John XXIII Parish, Knoxville. The Bible is OUR story, how we understand God works in OUR lives. How are the vocational calls of Isaiah (Isaiah 6:1-8) and Peter (Luke 5:1-11) like yours?
