Corpus Christi: The Holy Eucharist, St. Thomas Aquinas & the Humility of Christ

About this sermon

On the great Solemnity of Corpus Christi, this powerful Catholic sermon reflects on the immeasurable gift of the Holy Eucharist—the Body, Blood, Soul, and Divinity of Jesus Christ. Discover the profound humility of Our Lord hidden beneath the appearance of bread, the inspiring story behind the institution of the Feast of Corpus Christi, and the remarkable humility of St. Bonaventure before the theological genius of St. Thomas Aquinas. This sermon explores: ✠ The Real Presence of Jesus Christ in the Eucharist ✠ Why Holy Communion is the greatest gift given to mankind ✠ The history of Corpus Christi and Pope Urban IV ✠ St. Thomas Aquinas and the Eucharistic hymns ✠ St. Bonaventure's extraordinary act of humility ✠ The Five Wounds of Christ's Humility ✠ Eucharistic thanksgiving after Holy Communion ✠ The teachings of St. Pius X on thanksgiving ✠ The role of Our Lady in the Holy Eucharist ✠ Insights from Pope St. John Paul II and Pope Benedict XVI As Catholics, we are called not only to receive Our Lord worthily but to live in continual gratitude for the tremendous privilege of receiving Jesus Christ in Holy Communion. May this reflection deepen your love for the Blessed Sacrament and inspire greater devotion to Our Eucharistic Lord. "Except for Our Lady, we would not have the Holy Eucharist." Jesus in the Blessed Sacrament, increase our faith, hope, and love.
