Christmas message 2021
Christmas is the story of God-made man holding out his hand in friendship to humanity. The offer is real, tangible, personal, even physical. After two years of isolation, we need it more than ever. In such dark times, Christmas is a ray of light, a sliver of hope

Study after study have concluded that Australians are less concerned about the physical effects than they are about the emotional and spiritual effects of the pandemic and lockdowns, that they’ve been thinking much more about the meaning of life and their own mortality, having more spiritual conversations, and praying more to help them get through. They even say they’re now more likely regularl...

Welcome to St Joseph’s Church, Rosebery, for the Solemn Mass for the Dedication of a Church. It seems only yesterday that I was here installing Fr Paul as your new parish priest: he must have been working the building hard to have broken it already!

“When Jesus saw the crowds, he felt sorry for them, because they were harassed and dejected, like sheep without a shepherd” (Mt 9:35-10:8). Our translation “felt sorry for” misses the mark: it’s both mild and aloof. But our English word ‘sorry’ does share the same root as the word ‘sore’, just as our words ‘sympathy’ and ‘compassion’ share roots with ‘pathos’ and ‘passion’. Link: www.sydneycath...

Integrity commissions are all the rage. The states have them and the Commonwealth will too-eventually. Such agencies attempt to root out abuses of office, perversions of justice and other corrupt conduct in public administration. Their investigations have brought down premiers and other public officials. Meanwhile many professional and sporting associations, universities, corporations and chari...

Kings and kingship: they frame the story of Jesus. The New Testament begins with Jesus’ family tree showing He’s a direct descendant of King David, via his step-father Joseph (Mt 1:1-17; Lk 2:4).

At the then-customary examination before Confirmation, a child was asked by a bishop to define Matrimony. She nervously recited from memory: “Matrimony is a place where souls suffer for a time after death on account of their sins.” Embarrassed that her pupil had given the definition of Purgatory rather than Matrimony, the nun in charge was about to correct the child when the Bishop intervened: ...

In the sixth century BC a slave named Aesop told the fable of a Fox who, being hard-hunted and having run a long chase, sought refuge from a Farmer who told the Fox to hide in his barn. Presently the hunters came up, and inquired of the man if he had seen the Fox. ‘No,’ says he, ‘I have not seen him’, but all the while he pointed to the place the Fox was hid.

The assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand in 1914 sparked the First World War and left his nephew Karl as heir presumptive. Karl had studied law and politics and was a military man. When the emperor also died, late in 1916, he succeeded to the several crowns of the Austro-Hungarian empire.

They’re at it again. James and John are lobbying for special positions in Jesus’ kingdom (Mk 10:35-45; cf. 9:30-37). For the second time in two chapters Jesus exhorts them to let go of any ambition to lord it over others. “Anyone who wants to be great among you must be your servant, anyone who wants to be first must be slave to all.”

CLOSING OF THE FIRST ASSEMBLY OF THE FIFTH PLENARY COUNCIL OF AUSTRALIA The Hebrew word for wisdom חָכְמָה (chokmâh), the Greek word σοφια (sophia) and the Latin sapientia are all feminine nouns. So, naturally enough, the ancients personified Wisdom as a woman. In the wisdom literature of Israel-the Books of Job, Psalms, Proverbs, Ecclesiastes, Song of Songs, Sirach and Wisdom-we’re told she de...

We use words to announce, promise, play, exhort, rec...

We like to think of Him as “Gentle Jesus, meek and mild”-for He is indeed love and mercy personified. But as Charles Wesley’s hymn continues, “Gentle Jesus, meek and mild, look upon a little child, pity my simplicity”. Aware as He is of the vulnerability and innocence of the little ones, Our Lord pulls no punches when it comes to those who hurt or corrupt them. “Anyone who is a stumbling block ...
