30th Sunday in Ordinary Time - Year C - October 26, 2025

The readings for 30th Sunday in Ordinary Time Year C focus on God’s mercy for the poor and the humble. In the first reading we are told that God hears those who cry out in pain. And the psalm echoes this sentiment. In the second reading Paul speaks of feeling deserted by all those around him, but the Lord stood by him. In the gospel Jesus tells the parable of the Pharisee and the Tax Collector.

The themes for the 30th Sunday in Ordinary Time Year C bring important lessons for our lives. They help us understand how to approach God and live faithfully.

• God Hears the Humble: God listens closely to those who are humble and oppressed. In the first reading, we learn that God does not ignore their pleas; instead, He ensures justice for them.
• Value of Humility: Humility is key to being right with God. The Gospel shows that self-righteousness is not the way to God’s heart, but humility and repentance are.
• Faithfulness Rewarded: Staying true to God’s way leads to eternal rewards. In the second reading, even though others abandoned him, Paul is confident that God will bring him safely into His kingdom because of his faithfulness.
• Strength in Trials: God provides strength in difficult times. Paul speaks about being deserted by friends but supported by the Lord, highlighting that God helps us through our trials.
• Prayer from the Heart: Sincere prayer is more valued by God than boastful displays. The Gospel contrasts the prayers of two men, teaching us that a simple, heartfelt prayer is better than one filled with self-praise.

These themes for the 30th Sunday in Ordinary Time Year C guide us on how to approach our relationship with God and with others. They encourage us to be humble, sincere, and steadfast in our faith.

27th Sunday in Ordinary Time - Year C - October 5, 2025

 The 27th Sunday in Ordinary Time Year C offers us various lessons through its readings. Each reading provides insights into how we live and believe as Christians.

• Living by Faith: The prophet Habakkuk questions God about the suffering he sees. God responds by telling him to wait for a vision that promises justice. This teaches us that faith involves trusting God’s timing and plan, even when we don’t understand.
• Gift of the Spirit: In the second reading, Paul encourages Timothy to use the gifts God has given him. This reminds us that God equips us with spiritual gifts, and we should use them boldly and lovingly.
• Power of Small Faith: Jesus mentions that faith as small as a mustard seed can do great things. It shows us that the size of our faith is less important than its true presence and action in our lives.
• Duty and Service: The Gospel also compares faith to a servant doing his duty. It teaches us that following Jesus means serving without expecting rewards; our actions are part of our Christian duty.
• Vision and Persistence: Habakkuk is told to write down a vision clearly. This tells us that having a clear vision and persistence in faith can guide us through challenges and uncertainties.
• Courage in Witnessing: Paul’s words to Timothy highlight the need for courage in proclaiming our faith. This encourages us to be strong and persistent in sharing our belief with others.

These themes from the 27th Sunday in Ordinary Time Year C encourage us to reflect on our faith and duties as Christians. They guide us in living out our beliefs in practical and faithful ways.

26th Sunday in Ordinary Time - Year C - September 28, 2025

 The readings for the 26th Sunday in Ordinary Time Year C call us to care about others. In the first reading we are warned against being complacent while others suffer. The psalm praises the justice of God. In the second reading Paul reminds us to pursue virtues. In the gospel Jesus tells the parable of the Rich Man and Lazarus, where a wealthy man ignored the needs of a poor man every day.
The readings for the 26th Sunday in Ordinary Time Year C focus on themes of wealth, responsibility, and the afterlife. They challenge us to reflect on our own lives in light of eternal values.

• Wealth and Complacency: The reading from Amos criticizes those who are comfortable and indifferent to the suffering around them. It shows that God sees and judges our indifference, especially when we ignore others’ needs while living in luxury.

• Moral Integrity: Paul urges Timothy to pursue righteousness, godliness, faith, love, steadfastness, and gentleness. This theme tells us that living a good life involves more than avoiding bad actions; it also requires actively cultivating virtues.

• Eternal Consequences: The Gospel parable about Lazarus and the rich man illustrates that our actions have consequences beyond this life. It teaches us that how we treat others, especially those in need, influences our eternal destiny.

• The Role of Scripture: The rich man learns that Moses and the prophets’ teachings are enough to guide us to live rightly. This emphasizes the importance of paying attention to Scripture as a guide for our lives.

• Justice for the Poor: Both Amos and the Gospel highlight God’s concern for the poor and suffering. It reminds us that our faith calls us to help those who are less fortunate.

• Ultimate Authority of God: Paul describes God as the only Sovereign, the King of kings and Lord of lords. This reaffirms that all power and authority ultimately belong to God, and we are to live in a way that honors Him.

These themes from the readings of the 26th Sunday in Ordinary Time Year C invite us to examine our lives and align our actions with God’s expectations. They call us to live not just for today, but with an eye toward eternity.

20th Sunday in Ordinary Time - Year C - August 17, 2025

 The readings for the 20th Sunday in Ordinary Time Year C highlight the challenges of living out the faith. They show how faith can bring division, suffering, and the need for perseverance.

• Faith and Conflict: Jesus speaks of bringing division, not peace. Faith can lead to disagreements and even conflict within families and communities.
• Perseverance in Suffering: Jeremiah suffers for speaking God’s truth. The reading from Hebrews calls us to persevere like Jesus, who endured the cross.
• The Cost of Discipleship: Following Jesus is not easy. It may mean facing opposition, even from those closest to us.
• The Role of Prophets: Jeremiah was persecuted for his message. Prophets often face rejection because they speak difficult truths.
• Endurance in the Race: The reading from Hebrews encourages us to run the race with endurance. We are called to keep our eyes on Jesus and not give up, even when it is hard.
• Fire of the Gospel: Jesus says He came to bring fire on the earth. The Gospel challenges us and calls for a passionate response.

These themes from the 20th Sunday in Ordinary Time Year C remind us that following Jesus requires courage and endurance. The readings encourage us to stay faithful, even when it is difficult.

18th Sunday in Ordinary Time - Year C - August 3, 2025

 On the 18th Sunday in Ordinary Time Year C, the readings call us to examine our values and priorities. They remind us to look beyond material wealth and focus on what is eternal. Here are some key themes from this Sunday’s readings.

• The Emptiness of Wealth: The first reading warns us that worldly riches and success can feel empty. It reminds us that only God can give lasting joy and fulfillment.
• Setting Hearts on Heaven: Paul encourages believers to seek what is above and keep their focus on God’s kingdom. This calls us to prioritize spiritual growth over material concerns.
• Letting Go of Greed: Jesus’ parable in the Gospel warns against greed and storing up riches. It shows that selfish desires can separate us from God and others.
• True Security in God: The readings remind us that earthly wealth is fragile, but God’s love is steady and secure. Our security and peace come from trusting in God rather than possessions.
• Living for Eternal Life: Paul calls us to focus on eternal life by living in a way that pleases God. This theme reminds us that our actions should reflect our hope in heaven.
• The Folly of Selfish Ambition: The Gospel warns against putting our ambitions above God and others. It challenges us to use our blessings to serve and to help others.
• Seeking Lasting Joy: The readings call us to seek joy that endures beyond this life. True joy comes from our relationship with God and living according to His ways.

These themes from the 18th Sunday in Ordinary Time Year C encourage us to live with purpose and hope in God. They remind us that true happiness and peace come from placing our lives in God’s hands.
