Because our service was an instructed Eucharist, Fr. Michael Mayo brings us a meditation on a portion of Matthew 24. Jesus's return is put off or deterred by the evil and ugliness of this world.

Zacchaeus was a wee little man...and was it really his persistence to see Jesus that paid off? Or was it something - or Someone - else? Fr.

Guarding the Gospel is something we're called to, but not something that it's our responsibility to make acceptable to the culture.

James Manley gives us some practical ways we can stay faithful. If you like what you hea...
