Gospel: Jesus fed 5,000 people with just a few loaves and fishes. This was not simply a "miracle of sharing" (i.e., the "nice thought" interpretation). This astounding miracle, included in all four Gospels, is a sign of the abundance of God's love. There is enough for everyone.

With five barley loaves and two fish, Jesus miraculously fed the crowd. We can never underestimate how the Lord will use the efforts, good works and sacrifices we offer to respond to the spiritual and pastoral needs of his people.

The well-funded resistance to the sensible regulation of handguns, the easy availability of semi-automatic weapons and the resistance to preventing people with mental health issues from obtaining them, is a clear participation in evil. This is a life issue americamagazine.org/politics…

Gospel: Listen to Jesus in today's Gospel: We will be judged on how we treated the poor and marginalized: the hungry, sick, imprisoned. "What you did not do for one of these least ones, you did not do for me." We will be separated into "sheep" and "goats," rewarded or punished.

On the Feast of Our Lady of Guadalupe, I'm praying that those who migrate--refugees, asylum seekers and immigrants--maybe treated with dignity and respect. Learn about @IgSolidarityNet's Campaign for Hospitality at: campaignforhospitality.org #CforH #ShareJourney

"Gun Control is a Pro-Life Issue." We can no longer pretend this is simply a political issue. It is a deeply moral issue that should concern us all, because it is a life issue. This was written in 2012, after the Newtown massacres #LasVegasShooting americamagazine.org/content/…

Breaking: I am grateful to Bishop Robert McElroy for his strong words about this "cancer" in the Catholic Church: americamagazine.org/faith/20…
Bishop McElroy: Attacks on Father James Martin expose a cancer within the U.S. Catholic Church

Bishop McElroy: Attacks on Father James Martin expose a cancer within the U.S. Catholic Church

The attacks on ‘Building a Bridge’ tap into long-standing bigotry within the church and U.S. culture against members of the L.G.B.T. community.
