Jesus wants to draw us out of the mud of apathy and into the fire of His love...we have only to keep our eyes fixed on Him!

We easily fall into the evil one's trap of doubt, discouragement, depression, and despair when experience suffering. It is normal to feel sad when bad things happen, but Jesus never desires us to lose hope in the midst of darkness!

In this time of societal trauma, we have been deceived into believing other people are our enemy and the cause of our suffering. Jesus invites us to fix our eyes on Him, to praise Him so we stand in right relationship with Him and fortified against the deceptions of the evil one.

When we don't trust God, we can easily grasp at money and material possessions for a false sense of security and control. Jesus, I surrender control to You!

For the sake of a tiny percentage of faithful intercessors, God desires to have mercy on the whole world. Come, Holy Spirit!

Jesus is always loving us and always speaking to us. Are we disposing ourselves to hear His voice?

We are called to be the "Good Samaritan," but we have to recognize that Jesus wants to heal us so we can be vessels of His mercy to others. 15th Sunday in Ordinary Time. 

A talk for the "Men of St. Joseph" in Shawnee. As men we are called to be spiritual leaders for those entrusted to our care. Regular repentance and daily committed prayer are non-negotiable pillars to becoming who we were meant to be!

Only if we radically trust Jesus and His love for us are we truly free!

This year, Father's Day falls on the the feast of Corpus Christi. Jesus wants to fill in the deficits of our earthly fathers with the Father's loving, healing Presence.
