Dad Talk - Pentecost Sunday, Mass During the Day (Cycle A)

Beskrivelse

As Pope Leo the Great explained, "the law was given on Mount Sinai fifty days after the immolation of the paschal lamb. Similarly, after the passion of Christ in which the true Lamb of God was killed, just fifty days after his resurrection, the Holy Spirit fell upon the apostles and the whole group of believers. Thus, the earnest Christian may easily perceive that the beginnings of the Old Covenant were at the service of the beginnings of the gospel and that the same Spirit who instituted the Second Covenant." As usual, the New Testament can only be understood in light of the Old, and the Old Testament is revealed in the New! We'll discuss that beautiful feature of Pentecost -- and much more -- in this week's Dad Talk. Please share with a friend, and God bless! Dad

Dad Talk - Fifteenth Sunday in Ordinary Time (Cycle A)

Through our choices, we decide what type of ground we're going to be in response to God's Word: hard, rocky, thorny, or fertile. And when we choose to allow that Word, Jesus, to grow within us, our reward is suffering. Wait. What? Yes! In this Sunday's second reading, Paul promises us suffering when we follow Jesus. We'll dive into that — and how this Sunday's first reading from Isaiah flows beautifully into the Gospel reading from Matthew — in this week's Dad Talk. Please share with a friend, and God bless!

When Jesus shows us how to pray, we should listen! We'll discuss the lessons Jesus imparts - and unpack a potentially confusing passage from Paul - in this week's Dad Talk. Please share with a friend, and God bless!

Dad Talk - Thirteenth Sunday in Ordinary Time (Cycle A)

This Sunday's Gospel reading includes one of Jesus's most difficult challenges to his apostles - and to us: "Whoever loves father or mother more than me is not worthy of me, and whoever loves son or daughter more than me is not worthy of me; and whoever does not take up his cross and follow after me is not worthy of me." Does Jesus really mean all this? We'll dig into that answer in today's Dad Talk. Please share with a friend, and God bless! Dad

Dad Talk - Twelfth Sunday in Ordinary Time (Cycle A)

It can be difficult to speak the truth about God and human flourishing in today's hostile culture. But it's not any more difficult than it was for the apostles or the Old Testament prophets. In this week's Sunday readings, Jeremiah and Jesus have some advice for how we should go about doing that. We'll discuss their wisdom in this week's Dad Talk. Please share with a friend, and God bless! Dad
