We learn from Jesus’ example that God wants to enter into our ordinary lives and make them extraordinary.
We are called to enter the Kingdom of God as a disciple of Jesus.
God enacted a plan of salvation throughout Salvation History that culminated in the Death and Resurrection of His only Son, Jesus Christ.
It is always right and good to follow Jesus example, even when it is hard or does not make us immediately happy.
Living a life of holiness as a disciple of Christ requires us to live a life of witness to Him by sharing with the world our love for Christ by our words and actions.
Happiness is the goal of a moral life.
The whole life of Jesus is a fulfillment of the Old Testament promises and prophecies of salvation.
Jesus’ identity is bound up with the life of Israel, and as their promised Messiah, Jesus fulfilled God’s covenant with them.
Neither the Old nor the New Testament can be understood in isolation from the other. Everything changed with the coming of Jesus and the establishment of the New Covenant.
The Gospels are the heart of Scripture and in them we meet Jesus, who is the Good News itself.
John’s Gospel combines biography with deep, prayerful, and theological reflections on the meaning of those events.
The priesthood is a calling to serve the Church in imitation of Christ Himself, even to the Cross.
Jesus Christ commands His followers to make disciples and build the Kingdom of God
The universal call to holiness is the vocation of every human person; God calls each of us to be holy as He is holy, that is, to be saints.
Jesus is the Word who became flesh, the Son of God, who was with God from all eternity and is fully God and fully man.
