  • Summary

  • Qorbono is a Syriac word that points to the sacrifice of Jesus on the cross, the Mass, and the Eucharist. Qorbono offers in-depth bible studies meant to help you make sense of the Scriptures according to the mind of the Catholic Church. The Catholic Foundation Library is an essential study of Scripture to help you understand God's overarching plan. It covers essential elements required to better understand the Gospels and the words of Jesus: How should we read the Scripture? What is a covenant and why is it important? How should we understand numbers like 666? The Bible is filled with symbolic figures such as horses, lions, and trumpets. What do they mean? These are a few of the important topics this Library covers. Do you have a good handle on Scripture? Can you explain in a few words what the purpose of Scripture is according to the Catholic Church? Is your life biblical? Are you at peace, knowing that God is truly in control? Learn how the books of Scripture form a beautiful mosaic that is at once ancient and new.

  • CFL 37: Mary Mother of Life
    Jan 11 2021

    Catholic Foundation Library #37

    Our Lord told us that He is "the way, the life and the truth" and since Mary is his mother it is only right to address her under the title "Mary Mother of Life."

    Eve was called the Mother of the Living, but Mary is Mother of Life to indicate that she is not only the Mother of the Living but the Mother of Life itself -- Our Lord.

    Eve was the Mother of the Living -- those under the original curse: "for dust you are to dust you will go." In contrast, Mary is the Mother of those who have received life in Christ -- eternal life.

    In this talk, we explore the importance of this title and its relevance to our times plagued by contraception and abortion. Come and learn how Mary can lead all those who are lost back to Christ so that they may have life and have it abundantly.

  • CFL 36: Our Lady of Guadalupe
    Jan 11 2021

    Catholic Foundation Library #36

    Many have heard of Our Lady of Guadalupe and many have seen the famous image imprinted on the tilma of St. Juan Diego, yet few truly understand the importance of this divine intervention in the life of the Church.

    What was the life of people of the Americas before the Church reached the continent? What did they believe in and why did they refuse the Christian message with such a great determination that only a very small portion of the population had converted?

    How can we then explain that in the span of 10 years following the apparition, over 8 million converted to the faith? What did they see in the tilma that was not made visible to them before?

    This talk presents the story of Guadalupe against its historical backdrop and will help you better understand the great gift Our Lord gave us from the Cross when he told the Beloved Disciple: "behold your mother." It will also help you better appreciate the importance of the pilgrim site of Our Lady of Guadalupe.

  • CFL 35: Fatima -- A historical Perspective
    Jan 11 2021

    Catholic Foundation Library #35

    In 1917, Our Lady appeared in the small town of Fatima, Portugal to 3 children and entrusted them with three important messages, the last of which became known as the Third Secret of Fatima.

    In this lecture, we give a practical, historical example of the workings of God in history through the covenant. We explain how the Lord is leading all of history to its appointed end via political and economic events. By listening to this lecture you will learn to see the world through the covenant and realize more and more that the events of our time are as biblical as the exodus of Israel out of Egypt.
