This is the only way that le... (www.catholic365.com)

We Are Made For The Infinite!

When I was growing up I took my faith for granted. There was a crucifix in every room in our house. There was a crucifix in every classroom at school. There was a big crucifix above the altar at Church. There was a little crucifix on my rosary. I understood that Jesus died for me and I was grateful ... (www.catholic365.com)

The way of simplicity and communion, the way of spiritual childhood, are the path to peace. They lead us into an ever deepening, intimate, loving relationship with God, and, in Him, into a new relationship with all men and women and creation itself.... (www.catholic365.com)

Who is my neighbor?

This is the question of a scholar of the law to Jesus, but it is also our question. It is the very question that leads to the parable of the good Samaritan. As Jesus ends the parable, He asks who was the victim’s neighbor. The answer is very important. “The one who treated him with mercy.” – [Lu... (www.catholic365.com)

Sometimes, there can be no middle ground.

Belief in Jesus is an all or nothing matter. You either belief or you don’t. Some try to water down Jesus and take what they like and ignore what they dislike. Belief in Jesus is not a buffet where you can pick and choose. Yes, there are those growing in their faith in Jesus and that is a great ... (www.catholic365.com)
