Jesus advises hosts not to invite people who would be expected to repay them to dinner but to invite those who could not repay.

The decision to do the right thing, the good thing, is not always easy and without conflict.

Watchfulness means living in such a consistently moral and obedient way that we are always ready to give an account to God of how we have lived.

When we care for the needs of the poor, we are giving them what is theirs, not ours.

As Jesus teaches in his model prayer, prayer consists in recognizing God’s holiness and his rule over all things.

It is not social definitions such as class, religion, gender, or ethnicity that determines who is our neighbour. A neighbour is a person who acts with compassion toward another.

Like Jesus’ miracles, healing is a sign of the coming of the kingdom.

Peter is the rock on which Jesus will build the Church.

The bread he gives is his body, which he will continue to give as often as the community breaks bread in remembrance of him in the Eucharist.

Although the idea of one God in three persons remains a mystery, we have the assurance that, as Jesus and the Father share all, Jesus and the Spirit share all.
