As we reflect on the nature of God on this Trinity Sunday, what does Nicodemus’ encounter with Jesus Christ tell us about the grace that He offers to all of us?
Pentecost
Pentecost is the birthday of the Church, on which it was blessed with the gift of the Holy Spirit. What implications does this gift have for our lives?
The Sunday After the Ascension
The Sixth Sunday of Easter
God is love. What does this mean? Christians confess that God is triune: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. This week’s message on 1 John 4:7-21 explores the implications of the love that has eternally existed between these three persons. Join Fr. Michael Novotny as we grapple with how this truth relates to our lives today.
The Fifth Sunday of Easter
What is love? Christian love is different from the world’s love in that it is founded on the event of Jesus’ sacrificial death on the cross. This week’s message from Fr. Michael Novotny shows us that there is a direct correlation between our love of God and our love of fellow Christians. If we cannot love one another, we cannot be Christians.
The Fourth Sunday of Easter
What does Jesus mean when he tells us that he is the Good Shepherd? Unlike the false shepherd we read about in Ezekiel 34:1–10, Jesus’ claim to be the Good Shepherd reminds us of Psalm 23. This week’s message from Bishop David Bryan helps us understand that God made a promise to rescue his sheep and that Jesus is the fulfillment of that promise.
The Third Sunday of Easter
Luke the Evangelist records several important details in the 24th chapter of his Gospel, all of which testify to Christ’s bodily resurrection from the dead. St. Paul says that this is the pivotal doctrine of the Christian faith, going so far as to say that “if Christ has not been raised, your faith is futile and you are still in your sins” (1 Cor. 15:17). This week’s message from Fr. Michael Novotny encourages us that we have many good reasons to believe in the resurrection and that this belief, inherited by the apostolic eyewitnesses, changes everything.
