21st Sunday in Ordinary Time: "What the Olympics and Jesus can teach us about being a true disciple, seeking wisdom, and integrating your calling."
"How being mindful of the Lord and seeking conversion sets us into the heart of Advent"
"What does Jesus' ultimate power and authority mean for us as we attempt to live out our faith?"
"Israel is a place that shows us the importance of the Church and the prevalence of the cross. Jesus said he would be 'lifted up', so what does that means?"
"First of all, sorry about the audio. My microphone died and I need another one. But, it still works. The effects of the resurrection include all of creation and this translates into the resurrection of our bodies as well as our souls. What does that mean?"
"Where do we go when we want someone who really knows our name? To the God who gives us his name."
"How do we hear the prophets in our midst and where are they?"
"How Jesus calls us to be more than fans."
"What is the Messianic Secret? In other words, why did Jesus tell people not to say anything after doing some miracle or deed?."
"Trends in American culture and its impact on Christianity. This talk discusses historical and traditional Christianity and the Gospel Message."
"Conflicts will arise, but being grounded in Jesus and his message help us to see beyond them. Where do we find our identity? What is our foundation for our values and morals? James and Jesus both help us to know how to act in today's world as they did in their own time."
"What does the End of the World say and not say? How can we grow in faith by paying attention to the real message? What are some small things we can do to help lead us in the right direction?"
"John the Baptist preached three things: Repent, Prepare, and Believe. But does it matter? For that matter, does being a committed follower of Jesus make a difference? Can it be measured in society as a whole?"
"What are signs and why is Jesus' sign one to acknowledge, praise God for, put into action, and reflect back on?"
"Who is the Holy Family, really? How can their model help us in our own situation, and what lessons for building a holy family can be gleaned our of our readings today?"
