“While there are numerous ways by which a human personality can learn to become aware of the Christ, learn to form an allegiance with Him, and enter into full partnership with Him, the Sacramental Way is one of the surest, quickest, and most certain…. Let the Sacraments be the lamp to lighten your darkness and allow Him to be revealed.”

— Patriarch Herman Adrian Spruit

Listen and Act

2024-07-30T00:11:39+00:00July 30, 2024|

There is a story in 2 Kings 4:42-44 about feeding many people with little food. As we would expect, when the servant saw only twenty loaves of bread and then looked at one hundred hungry people, he hesitated and questioned Elisha. He was told to feed [...]

We can only try…..

2024-07-14T23:01:25+00:00July 14, 2024|

The words of Mark 6:7-13 remind us that we will not always be successful in sharing our beliefs. When Jesus sent the disciples out, he told then that if they weren't welcome somewhere, they were to to leave. How often to we let things go as [...]

You Can’t Go Home Again

2024-07-11T03:37:22+00:00July 11, 2024|

There is a saying that tells us we really can't go home again. Those who try sometimes say that it is no longer home, because so much has changed. Others say that there's no one left who remembers who they are. Still others say if anyone [...]

Belief in Action!

2024-07-01T01:18:16+00:00July 1, 2024|

The story of the bleeding woman (Mark 5:25-34) tells us of the woman who had nothing to lose. After 12 years of being an outcast, unsuccessfully visiting different medial practitioners (and spending whatever income she had to do so), she took that leap of faith about [...]

Don’t Worry

2024-06-24T16:38:25+00:00June 24, 2024|

In Mark 4:35-41, we read the story of Jesus sleeping through a storm, then calming the sea after the disciples woke him. They were terrified; he was calm. He asked them why they were terrified – and asked about their apparent lack of faith. This may [...]

The Blame Game

2024-06-10T01:35:02+00:00June 10, 2024|

The blame game seems to part of our heritage – Adam was the first player! As we read in Genesis 3:9-15, God was surprised when Adam didn’t respond when called. When God asked why Adam wasn’t responding, Adam shared his new-found knowledge – oh my, he [...]

All Are Welcome!

June is designated Pride Month in the US. The US branch of the Catholic Apostolic Church of Antioch welcomes LGBTQI+ individuals into the full life of the Church.

Who is at the Table?

2024-06-03T02:45:26+00:00June 3, 2024|

We read about Jesus’ Last Supper, in Mark 14:12-16, 22-26. This was a Passover Meal, during which Jesus celebrated the important Jewish Feast with his Jewish disciples (sometimes we forget that Jesus was Jewish!) But during this meal Jesus changed the words and because of that, [...]

The Trinity

2024-05-27T18:47:54+00:00May 27, 2024|

Yesterday was Trinity Sunday, a day when so many clergy attempt to explain that which cannot be adequately explained. Some concepts are best when we accept them in faith. "God in three persons, Blessed Trinity!"
