It's called 'aggregation' when you pull from feeds and display them on your site.
Look in the core modules and enable the 'Aggregator' (first in the list).

Hi all!

Just read this post (I had the same problem). Now that I have my feeds in the "source" of the "aggregator", how can I display those feeds in my front page?

Thanks!!

I don't think you can. The core front page (/node) is a built-in 'View' which collates all the nodes which are set as 'promoted to frontpage', puts them in date order, and makes summary teasers. You can't directly change that 'view' to include aggregated feeds. But some ideas:

1)
There is a built-in page which lists your aggregated feeds: /aggregator/sources (and also a block).

2)
I think you could use the 'Views' module to build your own frontpage, which does the same as the core one (and I even think there is one provided by default in the Views module), but then add your own filter to display your aggregated feeds too.

3)
I think you could use the FeedAPI module to create a node for each incoming feed item. These nodes could probably be set to 'promote to frontpage' by default. However, I'm just assuming this because it would make sense.

4)
There is also an aggregation module, which is much more capable than the core feed aggregator. It might be able to promote your feeds to the frontpage somehow.
