So, one of my buddies is a perpetual pilgrim for the Eucharistic revival, meaning he will walk across the country, over 2000 miles, with the Eucharist, with Jesus. That’s like 645 hours. That’s the equivalent of watching all of the seasons of “The Office” nonstop, eight times in a row. That’s the equivalent of reading the Bible cover to cover nonstop 13 times in a row. So why is he doing this? He is willing to witness the truth of Jesus Christ in the Eucharist. Today, we celebrate Corpus Christi, the solemnity of the most holy body and blood of our Lord Jesus Christ. My invitation on Corpus Christi, what are you willing to witness to when it comes to the Eucharist? And what maybe are you willing not to witness regarding the Eucharist? It’s a spicy question, but it needs to be asked and answered in our hearts. This is Spirit Juice. Peace.

It’s True
Did you know that the sun is 400 times larger than the moon? It may not look like it, but it’s true. Did you know that a typical cloud in the sky weighs 1.1 million pounds? It may not look like it, but it’s true. Did you know that Jesus is Lord and God to his people as he is dying on the cross? It may not look like it, but it’s true. And in the gospel for the Sunday, Jesus Christ gives us his flesh to eat, his blood to drink…

Love Jesus First and Foremost
So a hundred years from now, what will you be known for if ChatGBT has not taken over the world? Will they remember something that you did? Or will they remember a personality trait? What will you be known for? In the Gospel today, Jesus clearly states that He wants us to love Him first and then love everyone and everything after Him. When we put Jesus…

He Raises The Dead
Lazarus was dead and then he wasn’t. That’s the power of Jesus. He raises the dead.
In this Sunday’s Gospel, we’re reminded that this isn’t just a one-time miracle. Through the life of the Church, Jesus continues to bring people from death to life. In the sacraments, especially Confession and the Eucharist, we’re renewed, restored, and made fully alive again.
That’s what it means to be Christian. Not just following rules or being “nice but stepping into a life where grace transforms us, and through us, brings others back to life.
