#SundayApplication - Assumption Of Mary - Year B

This week, we take a further look into John 6 and the literal meaning behind eating of Jesus' flesh as He calls us to in order to attain eternal life. This teaching was so scandalous and radical that it was hard for the Jews of that time to wrap their head around and even is difficult for billions today. Let us take a moment to better understand this radical teaching so that we may inherit eternal life ourselves in our consumption of the Body, Blood, Soul, and Divinity of Christ.

#SundayApplication Ep.05 - "Gnaw Of My Flesh" - 20th Sunday in Ordinary Time Year B

Catholic Experience Ep. 04 - Chris Smith - Raider Catholic Alumnus

As we wrap-up our 5 week study of John 6's Bread of Life Discourse, we look at the literal sense that Christ calls us to for our belief in his REAL Presence in the Eucharist: Body, Blood, Soul and Divinity. It is not metaphorical, but something we believe is truly, substantially present as we receive Him.

How are we preparing the way of the Lord this Advent Season? In this Overview, we discuss the overall season of Advent and how we ought to remember Jesus Christ's First Coming, while also preparing for His Second Coming.

Advent Series Overview

Join us this week as we briefly dive into the readings for the Second Sunday in Advent and reflect on how we can "prepare the way of the Lord" in our own lives this Advent Season!

Advent Series: Second Sunday Reflection

Join us this week as we dive into the important, but ultimately humble roles of St. John the Baptist and Mary, the Mother of God!

Advent Series: Third Sunday Reflection

Join us this week as we explore the Fourth Sunday in Year B of Advent and ask ourselves how do we compare to the humility and obedience of Mary and Joseph? How do we prepare our own "house" as King David wished to prepare for the Lord? How are we to be patient and obedient in times of waiting as the Israelites did for 1000 years?

We pray you have a wonderful Advent and a very Merry Christmas!

Advent Series: Fourth Sunday Reflection - "What is your name? What is your house?"
