Providence is wiser than you, and you may be confident it has suited all things better to your eternal good than you could do had you been left to your own option.

We have to learn that we have a heavenly Father anxious to grace us with his abundant blessings, only if we could ask. How do we learn the lesson that we will never be wanting if we have the heart of a child?... (www.catholic365.com)

Heaven's Heroes

A hero in the early Church usually meant that someone stood up for belief in Christ, and therefore was martyred for that belief in a painful death--what does it mean today, more importantly what will it mean in the future? It means the same thing today and tomorrow. It means seeking God and the sal... (www.catholic365.com)

All things Purgatory

It’s not often in today’s homily that Purgatory is mentioned, many Catholics don’t even seem to really believe in Purgatory, it’s unfortunate that so many have gone along with or fallen for the Protestant belief that you go to Heaven right after you die, most likely because it’s the most comforting ...

It's tangible! … Let's not miss out on feeling Mother Mary's loving closeness and protection!

When I was a little girl, I loved dressing up in my aunt’s hats, heels, and scarves. I liked identifying with her. I liked the feeling of pretending to be her; practicing to walk in her steps; attempting to be grown up.... (www.catholic365.com)

Making the Sign of the Cross

My earliest recollection of seeing anyone make the sign of the cross was when I watched Bing Crosby in “Going My Way” and “The Bells of St. Mary’s.” Of course, as a Jew, I never thought much about the practice.

Resurrection Evidence: Some Alternative Theories Part 2 and Conclusion

This is the oldest of the theories, the very one put forth by the first enemies of Christ and the Church: The Sanhedrin themselves.

Heaven is NOT Automatic

It seems that in recent years the idea of Hell has become relative and mythical to most of us. I know many individual Catholics as well as other Christian people and whole religious denominations that discard the idea of Hell totally. They declare there is no such “state” or “place”....

Workplace Conversations on Confession and the Priesthood...

"Confessing to a priest?" the man said dismissively, as we were about to start our editorial meeting at work. "I haven't gone to Confession with a priest since I was 11-years-old!"

I don’t think people who choose violence get that. I don’t think people who find ways to devalue life get that. It... (www.catholic365.com)
