Life is a journey, and meaning is the character that this journey takes as we travel through life meeting people, seeing new places, being involved in events, and ultimately encountering God in each step of the way. Like Jacob who encountered God in a dream, may we wake from rest with the realization that in all the events of life, the good and the bad, all things happen to draw us closer to God. ... and with Jacob, we utter the words, “Truly God is in this place...” (Genesis 28: 16).

A Christmas Homily
The spirit of Christmas is more than the festivities, the rejoicing and the laughter. The spirit of Christmas is the arrival of hope, that there is reason to hope. Christ wasn't just born in a manger. We are the ones who are born, raised and live in a manger... Christ only decided to be born there---just to be with us and give us hope. That's why he is called Emmanuel... God-is-with-us.
