Featured Sunday Reflections
Set Free
Fourteenth Sunday in Ordinary Time: Although we experience division, suffering, and conflict, God brings and offers us peace. We must choose to bind ourselves to Jesus' yoke instead of earthly addictions that lead to sorrow. His yoke is actually easy because Jesus walks with us and it's tied down to the source of life. It's hard to learn and comprehend this through earthly logic but it makes sense when we approach it from a child-like dependency on God our Father.

A conversation on Isaiah 55:6-9 and Matthew 20:1-16

Seeing Jesus Past the Storms
