Let Us Enter the Ark of the Holy Church!

Advent is the phase of the Liturgical Year “especially devoted to recollection, to a discreet compunction, and to the thrilling hope of the great joy that the birth of the Messiah will bring. Thus, everyone prepared to welcome the Child-God who, in the virginal maternal sanctuary, drew closer, day by …

“If you have faith…”

“If you have faith…”

From Which Leprosy Do I Need a Cure?

From Which Leprosy Do I Need a Cure?

When Should I Pray?

When Should I Pray?

This Sunday, Our Lord offers us the parable of the widow and the unjust judge, to show us “the necessity […] to pray always without becoming weary” (Lk 18:1). Narrated only in the Gospel of St. Luke, it portrays a defenceless woman before a wicked magistrate who fears neither God …

Do I Consider Myself Just?

Do I Consider Myself Just?

This Sunday’s Gospel presents us with the parable of the Pharisee and the tax collector, which Our Lord addressed to “those who were convinced of their own righteousness and despised everyone else” (Lk 18:9), that is, to a group of proud people. In it, Jesus portrays two men who go …

Preferential Option for All

Preferential Option for All

The parable of the unfaithful steward can cause a certain degree of consternation because of the master’s praise for the cleverness of this bad steward, as well as Jesus’ recommendation that we use dishonest wealth to make friends who will welcome us into eternal dwellings (cf. Lk 16:1-9). How can …

Heaven and Hell Begin on This Earth...

Heaven and Hell Begin on This Earth...

By revelation from Our Lord and solemn definition from the Church, we know that there is an eternal destiny after our death: Heaven or hell, depending on how we have lived. No one escapes this, as we are taught in this Sunday’s Gospel, in which a rich man is condemned …
