Love and Joy

Jesus shares with his disciples about the call to love and joy.

Discerning Sheep and Shepherds

As we reflect on Christ's "Good Shepherd" discourse, we realize he is teaching us a good bit about discernment. Join Father Ed as he shares the insights Jesus is giving us about discernment and listening to the voice of the Good Shepherd.

God Gives the Holy Spirit to Those who Obey Him

Jesus speaks to Nicodemus about the Holy Spirit and Life. But the words of Saint Peter apply to all who seek a relationship with the Holy Spirit and the fullness of life. 

Deliverance from Deception

When Jesus proclaimed, "All authority in heaven and earth has been given to me," he did not leave any authority to the devil. So, why is the devil so much trouble? The devil can lie, and if we believe his lie, we give our power to him. Join Father Ed as he leads us into victory of the lies and accusations of the devil.

Easter is a Call to Surrender

In his Resurrection, Jesus proves that his claim to be "the fullness of the Godhead in bodily form" is true. With that fact established, what is left but for us to fully submit to him? Easter is a clarion call for us to take time to learn Christ's teachings and fully submit to our God.
