12 Therefore lift your drooping hands and strengthen your weak knees, 13 and make straight paths for your feet, so that what is lame may not be put out of joint but rather be healed. 14 Strive for peace with everyone, and for the holiness without which no one will see the Lord. 15 See to it that no one fails to obtain the grace of God; that no “root of bitterness” springs up and causes trouble, and by it many become defiled; 16 that no one is sexually immoral or unholy like Esau, who sold his birthright for a single meal. 17 For you know that afterward, when he desired to inherit the blessing, he was rejected, for he found no chance to repent, though he sought it with tears. The Holy Bible: English Standard Version (Wheaton, IL: Crossway Bibles, 2016), Heb 12:12–17.
John the Baptist humbly acknowledges that he is not the Christ, but rather one who makes straight the way of the Lord for others to follow. (Lectionary #205) January 2, 2023 - Cathedral Rectory - Superior, WI Fr. Andrew Ricci - www.studyprayserve.com

St. John's and Isaiah's Words and Advent On this second Sunday of Advent there are a remarkable set of readings. The first reading (not included within this audio) is from the Book of Isaiah. The author of the reading is unknown, since it was written about two hundred years after Isaiah. But it was written in the spirit of other parts of the Book. When it was first read, it caused a shocking outburst. Isaiah proclaimed, because of the disobedience of the people, the kingdom will come crashing down. And so, it was. The Temple came crashing down, the kingdom destroyed, and its people sent into exile. Some two hundred years later, a person in the same spirit of Isaiah, spoke to a crowd feeling the consequences of Isaiah's prophecy. Spoken to an exiled group of people who had little to no hope, the Book of Isaiah's words says . . . Give comfort to My people. Hear more in the Homily as to the significance of this statement. Make Straight the Path of the Lord St. John the Baptist proclaims . . . Make straight the path of the Lord . . . these words have a double meaning. Make straight the pathways of your heart . . . toward the Lord. It also meant Make straight . . . your way back home. Hear more within the Homily. St. John announces the Coming of the Lord. Hear what St. John's and Isaiah's words have to do with Advent. Understand why we honor St. John and his words during every Mass. Listen to St. John's and Isaiah's Words and Advent.

December 10, 2023 The Good News of God is that Jesus has come into the world for our salvation. Like the people of John's day we need to be confessing our sins and repenting, to make ready for the Second Coming of Christ. We must see how privileged we are to do the lowest job ... [Read more...]

In Autumn 1967, Elisabeth Elliot visited Jerusalem to see for herself if the Israeli victory in the Six-Day War had indeed brought about a ‘new' Jerusalem, in fulfillment of the Biblical prophecies of the Redemption of the Holy City. What she came away with is an intensely personal account of the city, its monuments, and the suffering of its people. But nonetheless prophetic. As yet another episode of war rages in the Middle East, Pastor Marwan Aboul-Zelof decided to revisit Elliot's 1969 out-of-print book, Furnace of the Lord: Reflections on the Redemption of the Holy City, record it and share it on the Didomi podcast in the hopes that Elliot's voice speaks to us today, and to help Christians engage in peacemaking in the region and bring about healing, reconciliation and peace. This is the sixteenth chapter of her book, Make Straight in the Desert a Highway. The seventeenth and final chapter will be published next.

There are a lot of famous proverbs in the Bible. Proverbs 3:5-6 is probably at the top of that list. Here is what it says: “Trust in the LORD with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways submit to him and he will make straight your paths.” But … Continue reading He will make straight your paths
Trusting in the Lord leads us down the only reliable path.
The world makes it difficult to follow Jesus. Our text is to make following Jesus a path the next generation can see and take. Subscribe to the Christ for Disciplers Podcast to learn more...

There are all kinds of obstacles to running the race of the Christian life with endurance as Hebrews admonishes. Among them are relational division and immoral living in the church. Hebrews commands us to proactively eliminate these obstacles in the church through relentless pursuit of holy, unified friendships.
John the Baptist knew his message: "Get ready." His mission was to point not at himself, but to Jesus, the Lamb of God. Our lives can look like that, too.

IN THIS PODCAST: Fr. Sandeep crossrefers today's readings from Luke 13:10-17 towards how we might have an attitude like that of the synagogue leader; who found fault with the Lord for doing a good thing. The Lord created the body for good. How do we understand the writings of St. Paul in today's sexualized world? Let us pray to God for his grace to free us from whatever it is that cripples or disables us. This homily was preached by Rev. Fr. Sandeep Menezes, C.Ss.R. on 25th Oct. 2021. Let us reflect and pray to the Lord.
In the Scripture and throughout Orthodox Tradition, the holy Prophet, Forerunner, and Baptist John occupies a place parallel though not identical to that of the Holy Virgin Mary. Yet he is at the same time a more enigmatic and lesser-understood figure in Christianity. Fr. Stephen De Young and Fr. Andrew Stephen Damick together discuss the Voice that prepared the way for the coming of God in the flesh.
