  • The Light that Leads to Christ: Feast of the Epiphany
    Jan 3 2026

    The Magi follow the light of a star to reach Bethlehem and worship Christ. We too must be aware of the lights that God sends us to bring us closer to Jesus. These lights vary in nature and appearance. To be constant in following the light that is Christ, we also need to be aware of other lights that could lead us away from Him.

  • [Rebroadcast] A Mother for God
    Dec 31 2025

    Christmas puts before us the Virgin Mary loving and caring for her Divine Son. It's a scene that we can enter into in our prayer and in our life. Jesus says that we too are "his mother" insofar as we do God's will. God allows Mary and all of us to love him in the Christ child just as He has always loved us: with a mother's heart. Christmas is a time to begin life again with a newfound trust in the goodness of God.

  • Mysteries of Mary
    Dec 20 2025

    Closing in on Christmas we contemplate the mystery of the Incarnation. Mary's humility and openness to God's plan are inspiring and truly mysterious. She offers us a recipe for our own life as Christians: attentiveness in prayer, humility based on contemplating God, and readiness to do His will.

  • God and Love for Little Things
    Dec 14 2025

    In the Incarnation, the Infinite God becomes finite, limited, even small. The Word is made flesh and begins his earthly life as an infant, as a little thing. In the spiritual life, little things are also a dwelling place of God. Little deeds, ordinary tasks, and everyday moments are all opportunities for us "to seek Christ, to find Christ, to love Christ", who is present but hidden in each circumstance.

  • Advent Goals: Conversion, Preparation, Onboarding
    Dec 6 2025

    Advent is essentially a time of preparation. To prepare for Jesus is to make our souls and lives more welcoming places for him to arrive. This entails conversion, confession, a real change of heart and mind. The changes that Jesus can bring about in our lives and in the world are truly incredible. To let him do this, we need to be on board with the program.

  • [Rebroadcast] Advent: A Time of Patience and Hope
    Nov 29 2025

    Advent is a time of patience and hope. Both of these virtues entail waiting. Waiting for God is sometimes very difficult, especially in trying situations. Our faith in Jesus, who is God with us and faithful to his promises, bolsters our ability to wait for him with joyful hope. Our faith overcomes the tribulation of the world and even makes us peaceful in the face of possible persecution.

  • Christ the King: Power and Patience
    Nov 22 2025

    Christ's supreme manifestation as King will come when he returns to judge the living and the dead. Until then, we have to remain patient with his will for us. Jesus uses his power to serve others and he hides his power in order to suffer for sin. At times, we might naturally wish for him to establish his kingdom sooner, putting an end to evil and suffering. But we should always trust in his plan for our holiness and redemption, which is that we follow the longer and slower path that he himself followed.

  • (Rebroadcast) Living well, Dying well
    Nov 15 2025

    Jesus often calls us to vigilance. We know neither the time nor the hour of his second coming and the time of our own death is certain but unknown to us. The best preparation for our judgment is found in discerning and doing the will of God.
