Evangelization At Work

“Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all that I commanded you; and lo, I am with you always, even to the end of the age.” Matthew 28:19-20 For many of us, when it comes to the things we are passionate about, like the best [...]

Liturgical Reflection – 26 JAN 2020

“At once they left their nets and followed him.” -Matthew 4:20 “Hearing that John had been arrested, Jesus went back to Galilee and leaving Nazareth he went and settled in Capernaum.” Capernaum was a busy city with a large population. It is probable that Jesus moved to Capernaum as the many there needed His ministering. It was in Capernaum that [...]

On Pride and Redemption

The First Commandment states: “I am the LORD your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of bondage. You shall have no other gods before me. You shall not make for yourself a graven image, or any likeness of anything that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or [...]

“Now I have seen and testified that he is the Son of God.” We are fingers pointing out the way to Jesus for others. “Look, there is the lamb of God!” John the Baptist pointed to Jesus as the Lamb of God, as the Chosen One of God. This was his mission: A finger pointing to Jesus. His finger is [...]

“This is my beloved Son, with whom I am well pleased.” -Mattthew 3:47 The readings from the prophet Isaiah prophesied the coming of one who would bring justice to the nations - One whom God will make as a covenant to His people, and as a light to the nations; To open eyes that do not see, to free captives [...]

Forging New Paths in the Footsteps of the Saints

I have a bucket list which I will go through and tick off every now and then. When I converted to Catholicism in 2016, my bucket list included going to somewhere in Europe. Indeed, I went to Poland but on a holy pilgrimage with 100 others from OYP (Office of Young People) for World Youth Day. It was also though [...]

Excavating our Wounds in our Sexual Desires

I was having a casual chat with a youth whom I work with, when he revealed in honesty, “Brian, I just went for confession, but I cannot. I wank every day. Really, porn is life!” There were sniggers around, then a younger youth, “Yah, I watch also. How ah?” Access to pornography is ubiquitous today, in comparison to the days [...]

“They were overjoyed at seeing the star, and on entering the house they saw the child with Mary his mother. They prostrated themselves and did him homage.”  -Matthew 2:10-11 While the Magi were traditionally numbered and named as three, the Bible does not in fact say how many there actually were, or whether they were kings. The number 3 is [...]

“So Joseph got up, took the child and his mother, and went to the land of Israel.” -Matthew 2: 21 “Put on, as God's chosen ones, holy and beloved, heartfelt compassion, kindness, humility, gentleness, and patience, bearing with one another and forgiving one another, if one has a grievance against another; as the Lord has forgiven you, so must you [...]

“So too, you also must be prepared, for at an hour you do not expect, the Son of Man will come.” Matthew 24: 44 Be watchful.  Be prepared.  Be ready.  These are instructions for us as we prepare for the coming of Christ.  Stay awake so that you may be ready.  Matthew 24:37 tells us, “As it was in Noah’s [...]
