Our Lady of Guadalupe Catholic Church: Catholic Sunday Homilies

Is Christianity for this Life or the Next? (Lk 6:17,20-26)

I have always found an unattractive expression of Christianity is to be good in this life to go to heaven in the next. Christianity's power is it helps now bring strength purpose meaning and many other blessings into our life. However, it is true that the promise of life to come also is a tremendous blessing. We are called to live as agents of transformation in this world never fully succeeding but longing for the completion to come after we die.

Take The Next Step Towards Your Big Catch (Lk 5:1-11)

This passage shows three different ways we can relate to Jesus; He's distant we know of Him but we're not listening to Him, He's in our life and helps us but we're still in control, or we've turned control of our lives over to Him. To allow God to work the biggest miracles in our lives requires that we allow Jesus to be the captain of our ship.

Jesus Our Redeemer (Lk 2:22-40)

Jesus our Redeemer, our Savior redeemed us from sin, death and the evil one. He takes away the power of death he forgives us of our sins which disarms the devil's capacity to enslave us, and joins us to Himself in God's family making of us an  offering to God. On this feast of the presentation of Jesus we learn that he presents us to God just as Mary presented Him.

Ignorance of Scripture is Ignorance of Christ; and That is not Good! (Lk 1:1-4, 4:14-21)

If ignorance of scripture is ignorance of Christ, as Saint Jerome says, then that is pretty serious! Because ignorance of Christ, unless it's no fault of our own, means we are not saved.

God Did Not Give Up On Us! (Jn 2:1-11)

Atheism says there cannot be a God who is all powerful and loving if there is suffering in the world. But Christianity's  answer to suffering is different. God hasn't given up on us.
