ARTE DE PREDICAR

"No es por la forma en que un hombre habla de Dios, sino por la forma en que habla de las cosas terrenas como se puede discernir mejor si su alma ha permanecido en el fuego del amor de Dios", Simone Weil (1909-1943)

This site is by Fr. Tommy Lane, S.S.L., S.T.D. (License in Sacred Scripture, Doctorate in Sacred Theology). Here you will find Bible, Prayer and Homiletic Resources.

I am Associate Professor of Sacred Scripture at Mount St. Mary’s Seminary, Emmitsburg, Maryland, USA, which is on the campus of Mount St. Mary’s University. Previously I ministered in Ireland.

This website is part of my ministry, one of the ways in which I try to proclaim the Gospel. I have always had an interest in computers, and through this website I channel this interest in computers in a way that serves the Gospel.

May your visit to my site refresh you and bring you closer to the Lord Jesus. I also appreciate your prayers for my ministry. Thanks.

Welcome! I warmly welcome you to this website, put together at the insistence and with the assistance of friends.

During my diaconal ordination, Cardinal Edmund Szoka gave me the following instruction from the Ordination Rite as together we gripped the Book of the Gospels:

"Receive the Gospel of Christ, whose herald you now are. 
Believe what you read. 
Teach what you believe.
Practice what you teach."

Those words have never lost their resonance.

Since that day -- October 8, 1998 -- I have tried to live up to that commission to be a "herald of the Gospel," by striving to teach what the Church believes, to practice what I preach to others, and to spread with joy and enthusiasm the truth Christ has entrusted to His church -- in and out of season, in and out of the pulpit.

This website is a chronicle of those attempts.

It constitutes the "five loaves and two fish" (or even less!) that I have placed into the hands of the Lord as an attempt to feed a hungry crowd, confident that, if He wishes, He can multiply and supplement that meager offering to nourish many more (Jn 6:1-14).

In Christ,
Fr. Roger J. Landry
