On Being a Pilgrim: Part One, First Steps

A pilgrim can mean different things to different people. You can hop on one of the big, package pilgrimage tours that most dioceses offer and although I’ve never been on one, I’m certain you will be better for having gone. Perhaps, like us, your current situation won’t allow you to partake in such e... (www.catholic365.com)

The Orans Posture is NOT the Problem

Recently in this blog an article appeared called “The Faithful Are NOT To Use the Orans Posture During the Our Father” .

To Fear or Not To Fear? That Is the Question

The Bible clearly says, “The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom” (Psalm 111:10). The Bible also says, “Fear not…I am your God” (Isaiah 41:10). Um, wait a minute. The Bible says we are supposed to have fear, and it also says we are NOT supposed to have fear?... (www.catholic365.com)

During the March for Life in Washington, D.C., my family, like all the years we've been a family, was absent. I can honestly say I've never felt called to go, and for us at this moment, it's the right decision. If and when the time comes, we will certainly join with the thousands of other pilgrims a...

The Resolution to end all Resolutions

A hermit I know used to say, “When you stop falling you will be in heaven, but when you stop getting up, you will be in hell.” The fact of the matter is, we all fall. The secret of spiritual growth is how long we take to get up again. St Francis of Assisi used to say that the difference between a s... (www.catholic365.com)

With all of the tenacity of Sherman’s March to the Sea, all traces of the Confederacy in the United States are being wiped out. Flags are being removed from state capitol buildings, statues are being torn down and there has even been a call to rename the Dixie Classic Fair. There is however one co... (www.catholic365.com)

A Short History of the Bible

The Bible is the collection of books that the Catholic Church decided could be read at Mass. It is a collection of books written by different authors with different writing styles over thousands of years for different audiences. It is not a manual on how to run a religion or build a church. Those th... (www.catholic365.com)

The cause of most of man's unhappiness is sacrificing what he wants most for what he wants now.

The Conversion of St. Paul is such an important celebration of the Church year that it has its own proper readings. Today, then, we hear of St. Paul’s conversion through the lens of his Jewish faith being fulfilled in Christ.... (www.catholic365.com)

Salvation history doesn't need to be carbon-dated

I recently read Lutheran theologian Rudolf Bultmann’s 1953 publication, Kerygma and Myth. While I don't necessarily agree with every point he was trying to make, I did find many of his arguments to be quite compelling, especially his thoughts regarding the irrelevance of history to the practice of ...

God's Shepherd's Are Always There For Us

Today I had the opportunity to meet with a fellow friend and parishioner that I don’t often have the opportunity to sit down and talk with, and during our visit, we got on the subject of “Priests”.

The Ego-Project God: How relativism encourages people to shape God into a reflection of their own ego

In his homily on April 18, 2005, Joseph Cardinal Ratzinger defined moral relativism as letting oneself be tossed around by “every wind of doctrine” (see Eph. 4:14), and noted that modern man is constructing a “dictatorship of relativism that does not recognize anything as definitive and whose ultima...
