This is a recording of a presentation on the Gospel of Matthew given at Generations of Faith on Nov 20. Matthew shows how Jesus recapitulates the history of Israel. In Jesus we can see the entire Geography of Faith. I also try to illustrate how Matthew's Gospel has had the greatest impact on Church life, catechesis and prayer.

El Papa Francisco ha notado que muchos piensan que el contrario de fe es ateismo, que tenemos dos opciones - creer en Dios o negar su existencia.
La opcion, no obstante, es diferente. El Papa Francisco dice que el contrario de la fe no es ateismo. El contrario de fe es idolatria. El papa lo expresa asi, "La fe, en cuanto asociada a la conversión, es lo opuesto a la idolatría; es separación de los ídolos para volver al Dios vivo, mediante un encuentro personal." Fe y idolatria. Los podemos ver representados en los ladrones a los dos lados de Jesus. Last week we had the 50th anniversary of President Kennedy's death. It has been an opportunity to remember him and his place in our history. Kennedy told a humorous story about when he was running for president. He was in the Senate having a conversation with Senators Stuart Symington and Lyndon Johnson. Kennedy said, "I had a dream last night that God came down and anointed me President of the United States." Symington said, "I had dream that God anointed me president of the United States and outer space." Lyndon Johnson said, "That's strange. In my dream I didn't anoint either of you." :)
Well, today is Christ the King Sunday - and the issue is who will rule in our lives... |
