This Easter season, the Church has asked us to meditate on the Acts of the Apostles. Today Jesus tells us to wait for the coming of the Spirit, which will descend upon them and empower them in their work. It is up to Christians today to continue the work of the apostles and spread the mission of Christ.
Reading 1 – Acts 5:8-17
Psalm – Psalm 66:1-20
Reading 2 – 1 Peter 3:15-18
Gospel – John 14:15-21
Arrived just today, making my anticipation of the #Advent season much greater. Thank you @BishopBarron & everyone involved at @WordOnFire https://store.wordonfire.org/products/advent-2020
“We’ve made an idol out of secular politics.”
Important conversation between @CCamosy and @AndrewPetiprin at @WordOnFire on how Catholic social teaching shows us a way out of political polarization and the “throwaway culture”: https://youtu.be/XpPWFWjljrk
Keep working with your head down & your sleeves rolled up. "To be great is to be a servant: lowly, simple, often forgotten. Eschew marks of respect; don’t seek them. Be satisfied with doing your work on behalf of God’s kingdom, whatever it is." [email protected]

I just discovered @BishopBarron’s @WordOnFire podcast of weekly homilies. Unreal that they go back to Early 2001, in a pre-9/11 world. Strange to consider, but thankful. #Wisdom
