Guiding Light: Feed My Soul
Cycle C Back Cover Text

In a world rapidly advancing and encouraging personal gain, we are faced with modern problems. There is a challenge to find time in our busy schedules for Sunday Mass or a family meal. We are able to research, shop, bank and even work without hearing one human voice. It is no wonder that we may often feel disconnected and famished at our week's end.

In Fr. Joe's third book of homilies from Cycle C, we are reminded of the charity that Christ intended us to show each other. We have a calling to turn the other cheek and be the Good Samaritan to others. We are rewarded with the Father's kingdom and love when we are not worthy. We are not left alone or hungry.

Fr. Joseph Robinson has dedicated his life to serving Christ and the Church from the Cincinnati Archdiocese in Ohio for over 40 years. His journey began at Elder High School, a strong foundation that led him to the Archdiocesan Seminary, the Athenaeum of Ohio. There he received Bachelor's & Master's Degrees in Philosophy and was ordained in 1964. He obtained a Master's in Divinity degree in 1973, followed by a Master's in Psychology degree in 1976. He has served in six parishes in the Archdiocese and has taught at McNicholas and Seton high schools. He holds a license as a Professional Clinical Counselor from the State of Ohio Counselor & Social Worker Board.

Today, Fr. Joe is currently pastor of St. Boniface Church. He is well loved by the surrounding community and inspires his parishioners with the homilies found in these pages. They are not only practical but also filled with light humor and a sense of hope, the hope of living out the Gospel despite the challenges of today. May they be a guiding light for you as they have been for so many others.
