Happy Feast of the Transfiguration of the Lord! The Transfiguration of the Lord comes in a blaze of unearthly light. The glory of His divinity is no longer hidden, but for a brief moment the Lord allows His disciples to see Him as He truly is. In His perfect human nature, body and soul are so closely joined that virtue of soul overflows into radiance of flesh. Here is true humanity! In His very person, the Lord illuminates by, paradoxically, casting a shadow. His glory is particularly revealing by its sharp contrast with the darkness of the world He came to save. By the light of his blazing glory, we see our own sin and brokenness all too clearly. It is here on the Cross that these strands of light and darkness meet. In the midst of the darkness of death, the Lord stands in His great act of love. Our memory of His Transfiguration, of His glorious light, must assist our faith if we are to see His glory here. Truly, He has already won the victory! He has promised that the night will be no more, that He Himself will be our light, forever driving away the darkness. And He has shown us the way to join in His glory: we must confront our darkness on the Cross. It is there, comforted by our Mother and strengthened by the Lord’s precious body and blood—another transfiguration—that the light of the Transfigured Lord will break into our lives. —Fr. Anthony VanBerkum, O.P.

Ben ancorati alla Parola di GesĂš, leggendo il Vangelo ogni giorno, non smettete mai di sognare una terra dove ci siano pace e fratellanza, di guardare al mondo con meraviglia, di affrontare il futuro con la luce della speranza. Non lasciate che nulla e nessuno vi rubi la speranza!

Illustrating today's Mass readings: "Jesus said to the crowds, ‘The kingdom of heaven is like treasure hidden in a field which someone has found; he hides it again, goes off happy, sells everything he owns and buys the field. ‘Again, the kingdom of heaven is like a merchant looking for fine pearls; when he finds one of great value he goes and sells everything he owns and buys it. ‘Again, the kingdom of heaven is like a dragnet cast into the sea that brings in a haul of all kinds. When it is full, the fishermen haul it ashore; then, sitting down, they collect the good ones in a basket and throw away those that are no use. This is how it will be at the end of time: the angels will appear and separate the wicked from the just to throw them into the blazing furnace where there will be weeping and grinding of teeth. ‘Have you understood all this?’ They said, ‘Yes.’ And he said to them, ‘Well then, every scribe who becomes a disciple of the kingdom of heaven is like a householder who brings out from his storeroom things both new and old.’" — Matthew 13:44-52, which is today's Gospel for the 17th Sunday in Ordinary Time. flic.kr/p/2srhtrz 📷 Stained glass window of fishermen sorting fish from St Philip Episcopal Cathedral in Atlanta GA.

More than 500 people gathered in @op_krakow—not for a concert, but to celebrate the liturgy more beautifully and understand it more deeply. Drawn by sacred music or altar ministry, they shared one desire: to encounter God in the liturgy. A reminder that beauty still speaks! – at Krakow, Poland

After too long teasing good news, now announcing: for academic year 2026-27, I get to be a visiting scholar in Rome. I’ll be writing and teaching as the Aquinas Chair in Philosophy at the Angelicum. Very grateful for support of both the Dominicans and my home institution!
