Easter People in a Good Friday/Holy Saturday World?
A great theologian, Johannes Hoffinger, asked: “if we are Easter People, why do we so often look like people in need of an aspirin?” Can we learn to recognize our experiences of the resurrected Jesus today.
Holy Week: What Would You Do?
A Mindwalk from Deidre Noonan As Holy Week begins, on Palm Sunday, we hear the first version of the Passion. Have you really read it? Have you placed yourself in each character? What would you do? The Anointing As Jesus is reclining at the table, in the house…
Transfigured
Deirdre Noonan writes: Each Sunday my family has a ritual. We go to mass, come home, my 19 year old son makes us breakfast and we talk, usually about whatever the homily was about. Recently, the gospel was the story of the transfiguration.
Lent: a Campaign of Christian Service?
I had never considered Lent as a season of service. We traditionally think of Lent as prayer, fasting and almsgiving. How does this work as a campaign (project?) of service?

Did Jesus Contradict Himself?
The editors of Commonweal caught my attention! The editorial titled “Advemt in a Time of War” I had never thought the impllications of the following…
Why Did I Create Mindwalk?
I wanted to welcome you to my parlor or kitchen table… whichever you prefer. Either hopefully conveys a space where people feel comfortable in talking with friends that matter, about things that matter. I chose the title Mindwalk because it was a way of…
How What I Dreaded Became a Source of Life
It was a moment I think most of us dreaded. In the later stages of formation some 60 years ago I remember hearing the words “Mr. Freund please”. The words came from the Superior’s bench in both the Novitiate and the Major Seminary. Whoever was called had to…
