Killing Euthanasia

I think one of the difficulties of discussing life issues is that the battle resembles trench warfare. Both sides dig in. Both sides hurl the same kinds of “bombs” against each other. Those who favor euthanasia, for example, often cite the “tremendous suffering” experienced by some who want to end t... (www.catholic365.com)

Love like Jesus

If we were all loving as Christ loved, then our churches would be overflowing with people.

Be careful how you live. Someone is always watching and will look to you as an example, an excuse, or a warning

The best way of witnessing to Jesus is: First through a consistent life.
