Did I Forget To Pray Today?

Did I Forget To Pray Today? Are you like me? Do you often find your life is so busy you forget to stop and pray? I know I do, but it's not because I find God to be any less important in my life, it's simply because He’s not nagging me or demanding my attention the way everything around me is; and I'...

If you wish to be saved - The Athanasian Creed

The Athanasian Creed is also known as the “Quicumque vult” because that is how it begins in Latin. It means, “if you wish” or “should anyone want”. Like the Apostles’ Creed and the Nicene Creed, it is another short formula for understanding our faith. The Athanasian Creed is especially good if ... (www.catholic365.com)

Will Anyone Pray for Me When I Die?

White vestments. A joyful atmosphere. A peppy, humorous eulogy in place of a homily. Such observations seem to far too common at funeral Masses these days, sadly. Do people even realize why a Requiem Mass is even being offered anymore?... (www.catholic365.com)

Day 4 The Heart of the Matter

Wow! I loved today’s reading. It really goes right to the heart of the matter. One that each of us has to come to terms with on our own. Oh sure we can debate it, defend it or refuse to look at it, but will all have to deal with it.... (www.catholic365.com)

The Prophetic Voice of Humanae Vitae

Watching the folks from NARAL flip out over the Doritos commercial during the Super Bowl is a sure sign that the pro-life message is being heard and that the scientific proof offered by an ultrasound machine is indisputable.

A law is something which must have a moral basis, so that there is an inner compelling force for every citizen to obey.

In life, man has the natural tendency to seek order, familiarity and continuity. He establishes and implements rules in an attempt to avoid chaos. Oftentimes however, because of all too human imperfections, his zealousness and his over-emphasis on processes rather than purpose, lead him to forget th... (www.catholic365.com)

The Nicene Creed - The essentials of our faith

Sometimes people will ask, “what are the essentials that we must believe to be Christian?” Luckily, this question was answered by the Catholic Church, centuries ago.

Under Construction

I think some folks tend to think of God as an absentee landlord. He created this planet among the myriad of stars and planets in the Universe. He pops back in from time to time to fix things up (Mount Sinai, Calvary, etc.) and then off He pops to His other planets. He set up a sort of “Super” (like ... (www.catholic365.com)

Taking the Mass for granted

Mother Church earnestly desires that all the faithful should be led to that fully conscious, and active participation in liturgical celebrations which is demanded by the very nature of the liturgy.
