Palm Sunday, Year A, 05.04.20: Defenceless for a Purpose

05/04/2020 Posted By: Peter Magee Largs & Millport Homilies No comments yet

  From the beginning of the First Reading, right through the Second Reading and the whole of the Passion according to St. Matthew, Jesus seems totally defenceless, vulnerable, helpless: “I offered my back to those who struck me, my cheeks to those who tore at my beard.” When Peter takes...

3rd Sunday of Lent (A), 15.03.2020: Crowning the virus

16/03/2020 Posted By: Peter Magee Largs & Millport Homilies No comments yet

  There can be no “good” time for something like the coronavirus to come upon us, but at least in Lent, a penitential season, we have a spiritual perspective which might help us to face it with some sense of meaning and purpose.   At the beginning of Lent we...

1st Sunday of Lent (A), 01.03.2020: The technician of human flourishing

29/02/2020 Posted By: Peter Magee Largs & Millport Homilies No comments yet

  The three ways in which Jesus is tempted embrace the three fundamental types of sin from which all others come.   The first is the worship of the body. Jesus is tempted to use his freedom to heed the flesh, in this case by satisfying his hunger, rather than...

Day of Prayer for Abuse Victims/Survivors, 28.02.2020: The logic of Golgotha

28/02/2020 Posted By: Peter Magee Largs & Millport Homilies No comments yet

  The darkness and death on Golgotha were not just events restricted to that time and place. Everything in the earthly sojourn of Jesus has relevance for every time and place given that he experienced these things not only as man but also as God.   And so the darkness...

7th Sunday (A), 23.02.2020: Weight Loss

25/02/2020 Posted By: Peter Magee Largs & Millport Homilies No comments yet

  Those of us over forty probably all have a set of scales in the bathroom. It’s no fun, bleary-eyed first thing in the morning, to approach the scales with trepidation that yet another few pounds have mysteriously appeared! We are quick to let friends know when we lose a...

09/02/2020 Posted By: Peter Magee Largs & Millport Homilies No comments yet

    On these recent Ordinary Sundays of the Church’s year, our second reading is taken from the first letter of St. Paul to the Corinthians. Corinth was an ancient Greek city with 90,000 inhabitants in 400 BC. The Romans demolished it in 146 BC and built a new city...
