  Hypocrites: Clean the Inside of the Cup

  Aug 26, 202628 min

  A meditation preached by Fr. Eric Nicolai at Camp Caribou near Barry's Bay, Ontario, on August 25th, 2026. Today, the Gospel speaks about the distaste that Jesus had for those who relied on appearances, on image, on looking good to others. Those who spent time cultivating a public image. It is a rather blistering accusation. Matt 23, 24-26: Alas for you, scribes and Pharisees, you hypocrites! You who clean the outside of cup and dish and leave the inside full of extortion and intemperance. Blind Pharisee! Clean the inside of cup and dish first so that the outside may become clean as well.’ Music: Regi Stone, All Heavens Declare. Thumbnail: Rembrandt, Jesus preaching.

  The DNA of the Life Faith

  Aug 6, 202629 min

  A meditation preached by Fr. Eric Nicolai on August 1, 2026 at Ellentor Centre in Toronto. Matt 14, 22-36: Jesus walks on the water, and calls out to Peter: Come! Water in the ancient world was always seen as a place of instability. It was a scary place when you had these rickety boats. But Jesus informs everything we do. It is our life of faith. Our faith must inform our vision, the way we think, the way we work. It leaves its fingerprints everywhere we go. There you will find the DNA of faith.
