Not Slapping Back
Jesus tells us that we are to respond to violence with non-violence. It would be difficult to find a more challenging teaching in the entire Bible.

The Truth of Blinking
The transfiguration of Jesus calls us to wisdom and humility, claiming the truth that we can see and remembering that there is truth to which we are blind.
Homilies
Taking the Next Step
God has a plan for our lives, but we do not see that plan all at once. This is why we must be willing to take the next step as God gives us the light to see it.

Knowing Our Name
Our value, if it is to become real, must be claimed. If our dignity is to have power, we must hear our true name.
Homilies
Behold the Lamb of God
As Lamb of God, Jesus’ sacrifice is effective not because it is bloody but because it is motivated by love. We are called to follow Jesus’ example.
