All wisdom comes from the LORD. (Sirach 1:1-10)

The Book of Sirach begins with this beautiful poem about Wisdom . . . and the book that follows will be full of pithy sayings, practical everyday advice and more poems about Wisdom. But our continuous reading of this influential book of Jewish Wisdom Literature will be interrupted by the great seasons of Lent and Easter.
These reflections are a result of more than 40 years of ministry as a Roman Catholic priest. Most of these years I spent in the Diocese of Charlotte which covers Western North Carolina. Now I am retired, and live in Medellín, Colombia where I continue to serve as a priest in the Archdiocese of Medellín.
