The Nativity of the Lord Merry Christmas! Christmas is not just remembering an event that took place over 2,000 years ago. Nor is attending Christmas Mass, simply a tradition, an obligation or family pressure. Christmas is an opportunity for people to encounter the living God in a new way. For Christians, their baptism is their first Christmas. Through the words and actions of the priest or deacon, a child becomes part of the family of God.God enters into our lives unexpectedly, humbly, and where we are and not where we pretend to be. Like the shepherds who came to see the Christ child in the manger and never returned the same. May we too encounter the Christ child and never look back.

Christmas Mass Homily

The Nativity of the Lord (Christmas) Mass during the DayJohn 1:1-18    In the beginning was the Word,        and the Word was with God,        and the Word was God.    He was in the beginning with God.     All things came to be through him,        and without him nothing came to be.    What came to be through him was life,        and this life was the light of the human race;    the light shines in the darkness,        and the darkness has not overcome it.

Holy Gospel according to Saint John 1: 1 – 5. 9 – 14In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. He was in the beginning with God. All things came to be through him, and without him nothing came to be. What came to be through him was life, and this life was the light of the human race; the light shines in the darkness, and the darkness has not overcome it.The true light, which enlightens everyone, was coming into the world. He was in the world, and the world came to be through him, but the world did not know him. He came to what was his own, but his own people did not accept him.But to those who did accept him he gave power to become children of God, to those who believe in his name, who were born not by natural generation nor by human choice nor by a man's decision but of God. And the Word became flesh and made his dwelling among us, and we saw his glory, the glory as of the Father's only Son, full of grace and truth.The Gospel of the Lord

Jn 1:1-18    In the beginning was the Word,        and the Word was with God,        and the Word was God.    He was in the beginning with God.     All things came to be through him,        and without him nothing came to be.    What came to be through him was life,        and this life was the light of the human race;    the light shines in the darkness,        and the darkness has not overcome it.A man named John was sent from God.He came for testimony, to testify to the light, so that all might believe through him.He was not the light,but came to testify to the light.The true light, which enlightens everyone, was coming into the world.    He was in the world,        and the world came to be through him,        but the world did not know him.    He came to what was his own,        but his own people did not accept him.But to those who did accept himhe gave power to become children of God, to those who believe in his name, who were born not by natural generation nor by human choice nor by a man's decision but of God.    And the Word became flesh        and made his dwelling among us,        and we saw his glory,        the glory as of the Father's only Son,        full of grace and truth.John testified to him and cried out, saying, “This was he of whom I said, ‘The one who is coming after me ranks ahead of me because he existed before me.'”From his fullness we have all received,grace in place of grace,because while the law was given through Moses, grace and truth came through Jesus Christ.No one has ever seen God.The only Son, God, who is at the Father's side, has revealed him.

A four-year-old's question—“Why does Santa look different?”—opens a bigger one: why does Jesus look different in every painting, and how do we recognize Him today? Joe Rockey and Father Boniface Hicks explore how sacred art (especially icons) shows inner, spiritual reality more than photo-realism—and how Jesus is truly present in the Eucharist even when our eyes see only bread. As Christmas Masses fill with newcomers, we talk about hospitality, cooperation with grace, and moving from the visible to the invisible: from faces and symbols to the Person who loves us. Always through the three lenses: honesty with self, charity with others, under a living relationship with God.Key IdeasDifferent “looks,” same identity: saints (and St. Nicholas) are shown with signs of their vocation; Jesus is recognized by what's essential—wounds, mercy, and divinity—not a fixed facial template.Icons aim beyond photography: light “from within” depicts the glorified person; art can reveal deeper truth than surface detail.Real Presence, hidden form: in the Eucharist our senses see bread; faith meets the living Christ—Body, Blood, Soul, and Divinity.Childlike faith teaches adults: wonder and simple trust help us notice God's voice in conscience and daily life.Christmas hospitality: welcome irregular Mass-goers with warmth and witness; our charity can draw people back to the Church.Links & ReferencesNational Shrine of Our Lady of Champion (approved Marian apparition to Adele Brise, Champion, WI): https://championshrine.orgCTAIf this helped, please leave a review or share this episode with a friend.Questions or thoughts?

"The overlapping sounds – the drone's gentle pulse, the lingering reverb, the admiring whispers, and the sacred music – create a dreamlike and immersive experience. It's as if the drone has become a silent witness, its sonic capture blending the everyday wonder of visitors with the profound spiritual atmosphere of a Christmas Mass. The drawn-out notes act as a unifying force, binding these disparate sounds into a cohesive and emotionally resonant whole, a sonic meditation on the Basilica's enduring beauty and its role as a place of both artistic appreciation and profound faith. The recording becomes a hauntingly beautiful reimagining, a drone's-eye (or ear) view into the soul of Sant'Antonio."

Reading IIs 62:11-12   See, the LORD proclaims       to the ends of the earth:   say to daughter Zion,       your savior comes!   Here is his reward with him,       his recompense before him.   They shall be called the holy people,       the redeemed of the LORD,   and you shall be called “Frequented,”       a city that is not forsaken.Reading IITi 3:4-7Beloved:When the kindness and generous love of God our savior appeared, not because of any righteous deeds we had donebut because of his mercy,He saved us through the bath of rebirthand renewal by the Holy Spirit,whom he richly poured out on usthrough Jesus Christ our savior,so that we might be justified by his graceand become heirs in hope of eternal life.GospelLk 2:15-20When the angels went away from them to heaven,the shepherds said to one another, “Let us go, then, to Bethlehemto see this thing that has taken place, which the Lord has made known to us.”So they went in haste and found Mary and Joseph, and the infant lying in the manger.When they saw this,they made known the messagethat had been told them about this child.All who heard it were amazedby what had been told them by the shepherds.And Mary kept all these things,reflecting on them in her heart.Then the shepherds returned,glorifying and praising God for all they had heard and seen, just as it had been told to them.

Catholic homilies and Mass readings from St. Anne Roman Catholic Parish in Gilbert, Arizona

Reading IIs 9:1-6    The people who walked in darkness        have seen a great light;    upon those who dwelt in the land of gloom        a light has shone.    You have brought them abundant joy        and great rejoicing,    as they rejoice before you as at the harvest,        as people make merry when dividing spoils.    For the yoke that burdened them,        the pole on their shoulder,    and the rod of their taskmaster        you have smashed, as on the day of Midian.    For every boot that tramped in battle,        every cloak rolled in blood,        will be burned as fuel for flames.    For a child is born to us, a son is given us;        upon his shoulder dominion rests.    They name him Wonder-Counselor, God-Hero,        Father-Forever, Prince of Peace.    His dominion is vast        and forever peaceful,    from David's throne, and over his kingdom,        which he confirms and sustains    by judgment and justice,        both now and forever.    The zeal of the LORD of hosts will do this!Reading IITi 2:11-14Beloved:The grace of God has appeared, saving alland training us to reject godless ways and worldly desires and to live temperately, justly, and devoutly in this age, as we await the blessed hope, the appearance of the glory of our great God and savior Jesus Christ,who gave himself for us to deliver us from all lawlessness and to cleanse for himself a people as his own, eager to do what is good.GospelLk 2:1-14In those days a decree went out from Caesar Augustusthat the whole world should be enrolled.This was the first enrollment, when Quirinius was governor of Syria.So all went to be enrolled, each to his own town.And Joseph too went up from Galilee from the town of Nazareth to Judea, to the city of David that is called Bethlehem, because he was of the house and family of David, to be enrolled with Mary, his betrothed, who was with child.While they were there,the time came for her to have her child, and she gave birth to her firstborn son.She wrapped him in swaddling clothes and laid him in a manger, because there was no room for them in the inn.Now there were shepherds in that region living in the fields and keeping the night watch over their flock.The angel of the Lord appeared to them and the glory of the Lord shone around them, and they were struck with great fear.The angel said to them,“Do not be afraid;for behold, I proclaim to you good news of great joy that will be for all the people.For today in the city of David a savior has been born for you who is Christ and Lord.And this will be a sign for you: you will find an infant wrapped in swaddling clothes and lying in a manger.”And suddenly there was a multitude of the heavenly host with the angel,praising God and saying:    “Glory to God in the highest        and on earth peace to those on whom his favor rests.”

Catholic homilies and Mass readings from St. Anne Roman Catholic Parish in Gilbert, Arizona

Reading IIs 52:7-10    How beautiful upon the mountains        are the feet of him who brings glad tidings,    announcing peace, bearing good news,        announcing salvation, and saying to Zion,        “Your God is King!”    Hark!  Your sentinels raise a cry,        together they shout for joy,    for they see directly, before their eyes,        the LORD restoring Zion.    Break out together in song,        O ruins of Jerusalem!    For the LORD comforts his people,        he redeems Jerusalem.    The LORD has bared his holy arm        in the sight of all the nations;    all the ends of the earth will behold        the salvation of our God.Reading IIHeb 1:1-6Brothers and sisters:In times past, God spoke in partial and various ways     to our ancestors through the prophets;     in these last days, he has spoken to us through the Son,     whom he made heir of all things     and through whom he created the universe,        who is the refulgence of his glory,            the very imprint of his being,        and who sustains all things by his mighty word.        When he had accomplished purification from sins,        he took his seat at the right hand of the Majesty on high,        as far superior to the angels        as the name he has inherited is more excellent than theirs.For to which of the angels did God ever say:    You are my son; this day I have begotten you?Or again:    I will be a father to him, and he shall be a son to me?And again, when he leads the firstborn into the world, he says:    Let all the angels of God worship him.GospelJn 1:1-18    In the beginning was the Word,        and the Word was with God,        and the Word was God.    He was in the beginning with God.     All things came to be through him,        and without him nothing came to be.    What came to be through him was life,        and this life was the light of the human race;    the light shines in the darkness,        and the darkness has not overcome it.A man named John was sent from God.He came for testimony, to testify to the light, so that all might believe through him.He was not the light,but came to testify to the light.The true light, which enlightens everyone, was coming into the world.    He was in the world,        and the world came to be through him,        but the world did not know him.    He came to what was his own,        but his own people did not accept him.But to those who did accept himhe gave power to become children of God, to those who believe in his name, who were born not by natural generation nor by human choice nor by a man's decision but of God.    And the Word became flesh        and made his dwelling among us,        and we saw his glory,        the glory as of the Father's only Son,        full of grace and truth.John testified to him and cried out, saying, “This was he of whom I said, ‘The one who is coming after me ranks ahead of me because he existed before me.'”From his fullness we have all received,grace in place of grace,because while the law was given through Moses, grace and truth came through Jesus Christ.No one has ever seen God.The only Son, God, who is at the Father's side, has revealed him.

As we begin the Christmas season and celebrate the birth of Jesus Christ, we also share stories with each other as we gather with friends and family. Listen to my homily to hear a portion of my story of my faith journey and reflect on your own journey. This homily is slightly different than the midnight mass homily since the readings are different. However, the main points are the same.

Read OnlineMerry Christmas! Our Advent preparations have been completed, and we are now invited by our Lord to enter into the glorious celebration of His birth!How well do you understand the awe-inspiring mystery of Christmas? How fully do you comprehend the significance of God becoming a human, born of a virgin? Though many are quite familiar with the beautiful and humble story of the birth of the Savior of the World, that familiarity can have the surprising negative effect of keeping our intellect from deeply probing the depths of the meaning of what we celebrate.Notice the last line of the Gospel passage quoted above: “And Mary kept all these things, reflecting on them in her heart.” What a beautiful line to ponder this Christmas day. Mother Mary was the one person who would have understood the mystery of the birth of her Son, the Son of God, the Savior of the World, far more deeply than anyone else. It was to her that the Archangel Gabriel appeared, announcing her pregnancy and His birth. It was her who carried her Son, the Son of God, in her Immaculate womb for nine months. It was to her that Elizabeth, her cousin, cried out, “Most blessed are you among women, and blessed is the fruit of your womb” (Luke 1:42). It was Mary who was the Immaculate Conception, the one who was preserved from all sin throughout her life. And it was her who gave birth to this Child, carried Him in her arms and nursed Him at her breast. Our Blessed Mother, more than any other, understood the incredible event that had taken place in her life. But, again, the Gospel above says that “Mary kept all these things, reflecting on them in her heart.” One thing this tells us is that even Mary, the Mother of Jesus and the Mother of God, needed time to ponder, reflect and savor this most holy mystery. She never doubted, but her faith continually deepened, and her heart pondered the unfathomable and incomprehensible mystery of the Incarnation.Another thing this tells us is that there is no end to the depth of the “pondering” to which we must commit ourselves if we want to enter more deeply into the mystery of the birth of the Son of God. Reading the story, setting up a nativity scene, sharing Christmas cards, attending Mass and the like are central to a holy celebration of Christmas. But “pondering” and “reflecting,” especially during prayer and especially at the Christmas Mass, will have the effect of drawing us ever deeper into this Mystery of our Faith. Reflect, today, with our Blessed Mother. Ponder the Incarnation. Place yourself into the scene that first Christmas. Hear the sounds of the town. Smell the smells of the stable. Watch as the shepherds come forth in adoration. And enter the mystery more fully, acknowledging that the more you know about the mystery of Christmas, the more you know how little you actually know and understand. But that humble realization is the first step to a deeper understanding of what we celebrate this day.Lord, I gaze at the wonder of Your birth. You Who are God, the Second Person of the Most Holy Trinity, God from God and Light from Light, became one of us, a humble child, born of a virgin and laid in a manger. Help me to ponder this glorious event, to reflect upon the mystery with awe and to more fully grasp the meaning of what You have done for us. I thank You, dear Lord, for this glorious celebration of Your birth into the world. Jesus, I trust in You.Source of content: catholic-daily-reflections.comCopyright © 2024 My Catholic Life! Inc.

Fr. Michael Coutts, S.J.

A merry and blessed Christmas to you and your family! From the responsorial psalm: "Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace to those on whom his favor rests." A reading from the holy Gospel according to Luke (Lk 1:67-79) So they went in haste and found Mary and Joseph, and the infant lying in the manger. When they saw this, they made known the message that had been told them about this child. Luke unfolds the events following the birth of Jesus and the response of the shepherds who are visited by angels. After the angels leave, the shepherds say, “Let us go now to Bethlehem and see this thing that has taken place." They go in haste to find find Mary, Joseph, and the infant Jesus lying in a manger, an invitation to all people through the shepherds to respond promptly to God's call. And the shepherds return, "glorifying and praising God for all they had heard and seen, just as it had been told to them." In their eager response to do as the angel proclaims to them, to witness "an infant wrapped in swaddling clothes and lying in a manger." Hearing their story and seeing them, "Mary kept all these things, reflecting on them in her heart." In the story of the Nativity, God invites to do the same, to reflect on these things in our heart and to examine our own responses to God's message, sharing in and sharing with others, the joy of Christ's birth. God, all praise and glory to you for sending your Son to us as a newborn savior, lying in a manger, the Word made flesh for the life of the world. In him, your love is made Incarnate. Blessed be your holy Name. Blessed be the Name of Jesus. Blessed be the Mother of my Lord, Mary most holy. Blessed be Saint Joseph, her most chaste spouse. Blessed are you in your angels and in your saints. The announcement to the shepherds is for the whole world. As Saint John Paul II prayed during midnight Mass: "Look upon us, eternal Son of God, who took flesh in the womb of the Virgin Mary! All humanity, with its burden of trials and troubles, stands in need of you. Stay with us, living Bread which came down from heaven for our salvation! Stay with us forever!” Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit, as it was in the beginning, is now, and ever shall be, world without end. Amen. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/lectio-divina-daily/support
