Truth always ends by victory; it is not unassailable, but invincible

Jesus intimately knew his disciples and their human limitations, and thus said to them: “I have much more to tell you, but you cannot bear it now.” A radical love, a life of service, the mission of sharing the story of Jesus, the good possibility of suffering for the faith…not an easy lesson to le...

Remaining Open to The Holy Spirit

A Response to Steven Crowder From a "Wimpy" Pro-lifer

If you truly care about ending abortion, a condescending course of action is never going to be the right option. We must be selective with our words towards those who do not share the same opinion on abortion or are actually living with the consequences of acting on that opinion. We are not being ad...

Grow With Good News Ministries

False Peace – What Is That?

Being About Peace -- On the day I became a secular final oblate of St. Benedict in 2014, the monks and oblates greeted me with their congratulations. Some of us said Pax to each other which is Latin for peace. The Pax greeting has been used for about 1500 years by the Benedictine brothers. So I wond... (www.catholic365.com)

A Walk by Faith

Tolkien’s The Hobbit, when Bilbo Baggins is in the Lonely Mountain and can see absolutely nothing. It’s a blind walk, with evil lurking in every corner. Now brin... (www.catholic365.com)
