28th Sunday in Ordinary Time

"You are lacking in one thing. Go, sell what you have, and give to the poor

and you will have treasure in heaven; then come, follow me."

We pray that every baptized person may be engaged in evangelization, available to the mission, by being witnesses of a life that has the flavour of the Gospel.

Monthly Intention

of Pope Francis

Evangelization often gets a bad rap.

It’s the song by our favorite musician that we always skip. It’s the call we let go to voicemail. It’s the kiosk in the store we have to walk by. We don’t want to be rude, but we also are just so not interested. By ‘bad rap’, I mean the caricature of what evangelization entails that makes almost all of us cringe. read more...

Sunday Scripture Reflections

Bishop Robert Barron - It's Time for a Radical Choice: Friends, in our first reading today, Solomon finds that all the power and wealth of the world are nothing compared to the gift of wisdom—seeing life from the perspective of God.

Dr. Timothy O'Malley - Give it Up:

“Children, how hard it is to enter the kingdom of God! It is easier for a camel to pass through the eye of a needle than for one who is rich to enter the kingdom of God." Our Lord Jesus Christ preaches a saving word this day. Once upon a time, he spoke to the rich young man. The one who was on his way to the kingdom of God. He did not kill. He did not steal. He did not lie or murder. He observed the Law, happily so. read more...

Dr. Scott Hahn - Wisdom and Riches: The rich young man in today’s Gospel wants to know what we all want to know—how to live in this life so that we might live forever in the world to come. He seeks what today’s Psalm calls “wisdom of heart.” He learns that the wisdom he seeks is not a program of works to be performed or behaviors to be avoided. As Jesus tells him, observing the commandments is essential to walking the path of salvation—but it can only get us so far. read more...
