Behold I stand at the door and knock...
"Behold I stand at the door and knock; if any one hears my voice and opens the door, I will come into him..." (Revelation 3:20) A collection of my Sunday homilies for Holy Mass as well as some occasional talks and reflections. May my words enable you to hear the voice of Christ, who asks that you open the door to Him. Please share this podcast with others if you benefit from listening to it.

How to Pray in the Face of a Great Evil
This podcast attempts to offer a way in which we as Catholics can pray when 15 people were killed last Sunday on Bondi Beach. Echoing the words of Archbishop Fisher of Sydney, a great evil has visited our nation. Our faith does not explain why it happened apart from recognising that evil exists and will be active until Christ comes again. However, the holy scripture of today's Mass offers how we can pray and even what we can pray for.
Eternal rest give to all those who were killed, O Lord, and let perpetual life shine upon them. Amen.
