What does the Bible really mean when it says Adam and Eve were “naked and not ashamed” (Genesis 2:25)? Dr. Sri explores how Adam and Eve's physical nakedness points to something far deeper: total trust, vulnerability, and freedom—what we were created for before sin entered the world.

As we enter the new year we are confronted with laws and policies that seek to suppress the Catholic Faith. In the face of these obstacles, do we have the faith, hope, and charity to meet these obstacles before us?

The Holy Family stands as an example of what a family should be. The Church itself is a family as well. Yet today there is a revolution that seeks to undermine the proper order of both human families and the Church family by removing their hierarchical structure in favor of a bottom-up approach to authority. Added to this is the temptation to view the family not as a home, but as a hub where each individual member may pass through living their own life, but without a common commitment to the good of the whole. This problem is exacerbated on contemporary distractions like electronic devices which allow people to shut themselves off from one another. To combat this errant individualism, families must commit to sharing a common life, ranging from taking meals together to praying together as one.

The sermon you are about to hear comes from Saint Hilary of Poitiers, one of the great bishops and doctors of the early Church, often called the “Athanasian of the West” for his fearless defense of the divinity of Christ. Saint Hilary was a careful reader of Scripture and a master at drawing out its deeper meaning without losing its clarity. In this reflection on the first Psalm, he teaches us how to read the Psalms rightly, not hastily or sentimentally, but with attention to who is speaking, and why. What begins as a meditation on happiness becomes a profound catechesis on the Incarnation, judgment, and the destiny of the righteous and the ungodly. Saint Hilary shows that true happiness is not found in avoidance alone, but in a will shaped by God's law and a life rooted in Christ Himself, the true Tree of Life. His words invite us to examine not only what we believe, but how we live, and where our lives are truly planted.

In 1892, Pope Leo XIII published an apostolic letter exhorting Catholic families to look to the Holy Family for inspiration and guidance. Fathers, for instance, should look to St. Joseph as a model of vigilance and care. They bear the heavy burden of being answerable to God for the spiritual welfare of their families. They must support their families in knowing, loving, and serving God. At the same time, mothers should look to the Blessed Virgin to cultivate the necessary virtues of love, modesty, resignation, and perfection of faith for the good of their families as well.

In various and often surprising ways, God reveals Himself through signs and miracles in order to draw humanity close to Him, including pagans such as the Magi. And it is the Magi who provide a model of adoration, knowing as they do that the most fundamental duty of man is to worship the true God. Through adoration and worship, we profess our complete dependence on God while acknowledging there is nothing higher than Him.
