As we begin reading the Gospel of Luke, Fr. Mike draws our attention to Mary. He clarifies the difference between Zechariah's response and Mary's response to the angel Gabriel, and also explains why Mary is the Ark of the new Covenant. We learn that through Mary, God begins to fulfill his promises to the people of Israel. Today's readings are Luke 1-2, and Proverbs 25:24-26.

In this compelling sermon, Pastor Karl dives into Matthew Chapter 2, exploring the journey of the wise men and the early life of Jesus. He unpacks the historical and political context of Herod's tyrannical rule and the profound obedience of Mary, Joseph, and the magi in the face of uncertainty. Pastor Karl emphasizes that faith grows not in comfort but through obedience, even when it feels like exile or leads to unexpected places like Nazareth. Highlighting the transformative power of worship and sacrifice, he challenges listeners to prioritize Jesus' story over their own, trust God's providence in difficult seasons, and remain faithful wherever God places them.

Our study begins in Matt.2:12. The wise men are warned by God not to return to King Herod. God warns Joseph to leave Bethlehem and go to Egypt. Why? Because King Herod wanted to kill God's Messiah. Matthew writes once again of fulfilled O.T. prophecy. Joseph went to Egypt and later brought Jesus back to Israel. "Out of Egypt I called by Son." (Hosea 11:1)But in unbelief, the King's actions fulfill prophecy in slaying living babies. What King Herod does is horrendous. Mt.2:17-18.People can and do fulfill Bible prophecy even in their unbelief and sin. So both Joseph and the king fulfilled Bible prophecy. One in faith and belief, the other in sin and unbelief. How are you fulfilling God's Word? As Dr. Mitchell says, What will you do with Jesus? Do you want Him as savior or judge?Please do trust Him.Here is Dr. Mitchell on the Unchanging Word Bible Broadcast in Matthew 2:12.
Joe responds AGAIN to NeedGod.net’s misreading of Scripture in regards to Mary’s perpetual virginity. We hope this stands as an excellent example of why someone can’t just read the Bible for themselves and expect to interpret it correctly. Transcript: Joe: Welcome back to Shameless Popery. I’m Joe Heschmeyer and I hope that today’s rebuttal will stand as a shining example that the books of the Bible are written for us, but they’re not written to us. And then one of the most common ways people misunderstand the Bible is by assuming that they understand passag...

Friends of the Rosary, Merry and Holy Christmas! Today, December 29, the Sunday following Christmas Day, we celebrate the Feast of the Holy Family of Jesus, Mary, and Joseph. This celebration emphasizes the importance of family life following the role model and virtues of the holy family of Jesus, Mary, and Joseph. With its challenges and joys, family life becomes a path to holiness as long as it is bonded in love and obedience to the Lord. The Son of God became a member of a humble family. Jesus, the man-God, lives the family love of a father and a mother. The Catechism of the Catholic Church states, “The Christian family is a communion of persons, a sign and image of the communion of the Father and the Son in the Holy Spirit. In the procreation and education of children it reflects the Father's work of creation. It is called to partake of the prayer and sacrifice of Christ. Daily prayer and the reading of the Word of God strengthen it in charity" (CCC 2205). Today's feast is especially important as parents and children face many threats to the family being truly Christian. Ave Maria!Jesus, I Trust In You! Come, Holy Spirit, come! To Jesus through Mary! + Mikel Amigot | RosaryNetwork.com, New York • Enjoy this video and enhance your faith in our newly released iOS app • December 29, 2024, Today's Rosary on YouTube | Daily broadcast at 7:30 pm ET

Homily from The Holy Family of Jesus, Mary and Joseph Sunday
ROSARY - GLORIOUS MYSTERIES today. DIVINE MERCY CHAPLET for Sunday.
Read OnlineWhen they had fulfilled all the prescriptions of the law of the Lord, they returned to Galilee, to their own town of Nazareth. The child grew and became strong, filled with wisdom; and the favor of God was upon him. Luke 2:39–40 Today we honor family life in general by pausing to ponder the particular and beautiful hidden life within the home of Jesus, Mary and Joseph. In many ways, their daily life together would have been very similar to other families at that time. But in other ways, their life together is entirely unique and provides us with a perfect model for all families.By God's providence and design, the family life of Jesus, Mary and Joseph was spoken of in the Scripture very little. We read of the birth of Jesus, the presentation in the Temple, the flight into Egypt and the finding of Jesus in the Temple at age twelve. But other than these stories of their life together, we know very little.The line from today's Gospel quoted above does, however, give us some insight worth pondering. First, we see that this family “fulfilled all the prescriptions of the law of the Lord…” Though this is in reference to Jesus being presented in the Temple, it should also be understood to apply to all aspects of their life together. Family life, just like our individual lives, must be ordered by the laws of our Lord.The primary law of the Lord regarding family life is that it must share in the very unity and “communion of love” found in the life of the Most Holy Trinity. Each person of the Holy Trinity has perfect respect for the other, gives selflessly to each other without reserve, and receives each person in their totality. It is their love that makes them one and enables them to act together in perfect harmony as a communion of divine Persons. Though Saint Joseph was not immaculate in his nature, the perfection of love did live in his divine Son and in his immaculate wife. This overwhelming gift of their perfect love would have daily drawn him into the perfection of their lives.Ponder your own closest relationships today. If you are blessed with a close family, ponder them. If not, ponder the persons put into your life who you are called to love with familial love. Who are you to be there for in good times and in bad? Who are you to sacrifice your life for without reserve? Who are you to offer respect, compassion, time, energy, mercy, generosity and every other virtue? And how well do you fulfill this duty of love? Reflect, today, upon the fact that God wants you to share in a communion of life, not only with the Most Holy Trinity but also with those around you, especially your family. Try to ponder the hidden life of Jesus, Mary and Joseph and seek to make their family relationship the model for how you love others. May their perfect communion of love be a model for us all. Lord, draw me into the life, love and communion that You lived with Your Immaculate Mother and Saint Joseph. I offer You myself, my family and all those to whom I am called to love with a special love. May I imitate Your family love and life in all my relationships. Help me to know how to change and grow so that I may more fully share in Your family life. Jesus, I trust in You. Source of content: catholic-daily-reflections.comCopyright © 2024 My Catholic Life!

Let's get all set for the Feast of the Holy Family of Jesus, Mary and Joseph with Fr. James Brockmeier!
In this Christmas message by Chris Romig, the theme centers on finding peace amid life's storms, likened to his experience in the eye of Hurricane Milton. Chris, a Floridian familiar with hurricanes, describes the eerie calm at the storm's center, drawing a parallel to the first Christmas. He portrays the nativity as the eye of a storm, occurring during a period of intense socio-political turmoil and personal hardships for Mary and Joseph. Chris emphasizes that the true message of Christmas is the peace Jesus brings, a peace that exists within life's turbulence rather than separate from it. Using a story of a king awarding a painting of a peaceful bird amidst a storm, he illustrates that real peace persists through conflict and suffering. He stresses that this peace is unique to knowing Jesus Christ, offering strength in challenges, forgiveness for sins, and hope in grief, ensuring believers of an eternal union with God. As part of the Christmas tradition, Romig invites the lighting of candles to symbolize Jesus bringing light into darkness, affirming God's unwavering love and guidance. He concludes with an invitation to seek divine peace and trust in God's presence and support through all of life's storms.
Here are some of the themes that we find in the Mass readings for Feast of the Holy Family. (Lectionary - Year ABC, #17) December 23, 2024 - Cathedral Rectory - Superior, WI Fr. Andrew Ricci - www.studyprayserve.com
As we dig into the story of the birth of our Savior, there are many timeless lessons we may not have noticed. Personally, the more I dig in and ponder all the events of the Nativity, the more I learn and the more I can apply to my life all year long. Just reflecting on all that God did in Mary and Joseph's lives gives me great pause and wonder. They were ordinary people that God did the extraordinary. It is easy for me to think they are different from you and me just in what God was able to accomplish. That simply is not the case. God longs to do the extraordinary in our lives as well. The common denominator I found in this story is their obedience and surrender to the will of God in their lives. Is it possible if you and I simply determined to live an obedient, surrendered life to God, that He can do the extraordinary in our lives too? Tina is sharing with you five timeless lessons in the Christmas story that, if we grasp, will allow God to do the extraordinary in your life as well.
Pastor Wayne Penn, Jr. continues our Advent series with a sermon on Matthew 1:17-25.
Parenting is never easy and certainly not for the faint of heart, but can you imagine being charged with the responsibility of raising God's own son? Our responsibility isn't all that different than what Mary and Joseph were asked to do. The children we have are a gift from God to be raised for His Kingdom, just like Jesus was. As we stare into the story of Mary and Joseph, there are at least five pieces of timeless wisdom that will strengthen our parenting and breathe life into our children.

Matthew 1:18-24 and Luke 1:26-38 In today's episode, we explore the miraculous story of Mary and Joseph and how God chose them for an extraordinary purpose. Mary, a young woman in Nazareth, was preparing for her wedding to Joseph when her life was interrupted by an angel named Gabriel. Gabriel brought incredible news—Mary would give birth to Jesus, the Son of God. We also learn about Joseph's reaction when he found out and how God sent an angel to reassure him in a dream. Through their faith and obedience, Mary and Joseph show us how to trust God, even when His plans seem bigger than anything we could imagine.
