The Best Metabolism Boost... For Your Soul

When I first wake up in the morning, I stretch, sometimes for longer than I have time for but it feels good. It’s also healthy; it gets your joints moving and your blood flowing. It’s a great metabolism boost. I may not pop out of bed immediately after, but it gets me moving better than if I hadn’t.... (www.catholic365.com)

Day 51 – Caiaphas

Today we read about the arrest and trial of Jesus. Many false witnesses are produced but none can produce evidence sufficient to convict Jesus. Despite the many accusations Jesus remains silent.

How to love the sinner

There's a saying that says, "Love the sinner, hate the sin," but in today's world we often see the acceptance of sin and we call people Pharisees if they believe the law should be followed. But there is a distinction between people who have love in their hearts and follow the law, and those who onl... (www.catholic365.com)

On Eagle's Wings

Jesus hears the prayers of the heart and never fails to reassure us. He knows how easily we give in to doubt and fear.

The Case for Artificial Contraception

I think the teaching on artificial contraception is probably one of the most misunderstood teachings and Dogmas of the Church. It is so sad that so many of us, even as we sit in Catholic schools and congregations are misled and not fully informed about the reason why there is no case for artificial ... (www.catholic365.com)

What? Wait—What Did You Say?

Preparing for Mass the other day, my mind was thinking about a son and his family. Like many Catholic parents, we watch and pray—as those grown children fail to see the need to go to church or teach their children “the way in which they should grow.” You pray for those wandering sons and daughters...

I was "Isidored" by Two Catholics and a Hebrew; It was Great*

I never knew a Catholic/Christian named Isidore. I had always thought that the name, Isidore, was primarily a Hebrew/Jewish name. In fact, several years ago, when my cousin, Vicki, discovered who our mysterious, missing grandfather was, his name turned out to be Isidore.... (www.catholic365.com)
