Fr. Jeremiah Caughran Pursuing the Star to the King, Matthew 2.1-12

What were the Magi following? Was it just an ordinary star? What were the Magi? How did the star lead them to the exact house where the Holy Family were? Father Jeremiah explores these questions in his sermon on Matthew 2:1-12

God Became Man to Redeem, Luke 2.8-16

Fr. Jeremiah Caughran God has become Man to Redeem, Luke 2.8-16

When the angel appeared to the shepherds, he told them that the Messiah had been born and a whole host appeared and declared the peace had come and was coming because of this birth. This glorious event reminds us that Jesus came to bring true peace and redemption to humanity by being born as a man.
