Day 177 – APPOINTED by the churches

Today we read Paul, prompting the Corinthians to give generously to the campaign to raise money for other Christians in need. These passages have a simple one to one correspondence with our modern lives. We too should give generously to those in need.... (www.catholic365.com)

I'm for truth, no matter who tells it. I'm for justice, no matter who it's for or against.

In today’s chaotic and charged public dialogue, we often retreat to those safe groups or cable networks where all my assumptions are affirmed and reinforced. We can’t seem to tolerate others who might challenge our assumptions or biases. Rather than engage in civic and civil conversations, we berate... (www.catholic365.com)

Dear Faithful, Don't Pray To Santa Muerte: The Fake "Saint" Of Death

Pictured similarly to our Blessed Mother, the Most Holy Virgin Mary, because of the veil, Santa Muerte is a mockery and the total opposite. Literally translated as “Saint Death” or more commonly known as “our Lady of the Holy Death”, this fake “saint” has been dangerously accredited to demonic activ... (www.catholic365.com)

Who Loses Eighty Pounds Getting Washed?

The Statue of Liberty loses eight pounds each day by copper loss from annual rainfall. Each raindrop erodes only an infinitesimal bit of copper from Lady Liberty. But, as the dictum has it, "many bits make a big bite."... (www.catholic365.com)

When the Journey Becomes Tiring, Carry On

Over three years ago, I filled a hiking backpack, flew to Europe, and walked El Camino de Santiago. The first day on the Camino, though difficult, was exhilarating. We walked from the beautiful little town of Saint-Jean-Pied-de-Port in France, over the Pyrenees, and into Roncesvalles in Spain.... (www.catholic365.com)

A checkbook is a theological document; it will tell you who and what you worship.

No Christian is ordinary. At the moment of a person’s baptism, God infuses grace into that adopted child’s soul. The graces given include the divine virtues of faith, hope and charity.... (www.catholic365.com)

The Untold Story of the Rich Man

I recently used the Rich Man story from the Bible in my 3rd grade Religious Education class. As with most (both children and adults), the presumption is that the rich man goes away sad and does not choose to follow Christ. But is that really what happens?... (www.catholic365.com)

Halloween and the Legend of the Jack-O-Lantern (one version)*

Long ago in Ireland, in the land of shamrocks, leprechauns, soft winds and smiles, there lived a man named Jack. Jack was quite lazy and did not like to work. But he had the gift of "blarney" and could talk the peat off the moss.... (www.catholic365.com)

The Longing of Belonging

Psychologists say that this need to belong has two aspects: 1) frequent, positive interactions with the same persons, and 2) a framework of long-term, stable caring and concern. "A faithful friend is a life-saving remedy," says the proverbialist (Sir 6:16, NAB).... (www.catholic365.com)

People cannot hit what they do not aim for.

Perhaps you’ve heard the old adage, “Always begin with your end in mind.” “End” in this case refers to one’s goal. Many people, of course, wander through life aimlessly, but Christians are meant to have Heaven as their goal, or end.... (www.catholic365.com)

The Scent of Love

There are adults that children tend to avoid. Psychologists know that most children in an initial encounter have an uncanny intuition of being liked or not, even before a work is spoken. But also sensitive adults can "hear the silent dialect of love" and inner beauty in another's tone of voice, atti... (www.catholic365.com)

Day 174 – The Ministry of Reconciliation

So we are deep into 2nd Corinthians. Paul has been speaking much about the Resurrection. He has been emphasizing to the people that the resurrection will be bodily.
