The Sermon on the Mount
The Gospel this Sunday is from Jesus’s Sermon on the Mount. We might call this sermon “Jesus’s manifesto”.
Who am I?
Jesus is calling us to be real, authentic witnesses in the world. His witnesses, his heralds, his disciples.
The Beatitudes
In a world that values power, fame and fortune above all else, these verses, rich in irony, cut through to the very heart of what it means to be human, as they reach out to those who have no voice in the world.
‘The word of Christ dwells among you’
Today’s Gospel is an example of how Matthew revealed the meaning of the Old Testament in the New.
Sunday of Peace
This Sunday is Peace Sunday, I am sure we are all praying those countries in conflict. We might see this as our opportunity to show the peace and hope in our lives which we have just heralded at Christmas.
The Baptism of the Lord
The Readings of today present us with an invitation for our daily life: to live out consciously and practically our baptism as children of God and brothers and sisters to all others.
