The Golden Trumpet

With the consummation of the Sacrifice of Our Lord Jesus Christ, death was put to death and Light vanquished the darkness, in the supernatural realm. Nonetheless, it fell to the Apostles, the disciples and their followers to make the Kingdom of Christ a reality by proclaiming the Good News to the fo... (www.catholic365.com)

Why I Am Pro-Choice

The sighs and groans were heard throughout the room. It was a Thursday and so, like most Thursdays, we had a journal entry. It was clear to me that this was not their favorite thing to do. Then again, they are high schoolers, and so finding activities that they actually, visibly enjoy is a diffic... (www.catholic365.com)

A Paean for Conservatives and Traditionalists--Pippa, Trump and Little Homebodies

Late last year I was praying for a book that would ground me both in holiday traditions/ basic entertaining--what to do for them, what to cook, how to even make it possible, even special. God answered that prayer that same day by letting me see in a college bookstore "Celebrate" by Pippa Middleton, ... (www.catholic365.com)

Success is the child of drudgery and perseverance. It cannot be coaxed or bribed; pay the price and it is yours.

Children are such wonderful people. They are easy to please and have a great zest for life. However, there is one thing that children are good at – their persistence.... (www.catholic365.com)

Living in Liminal Time

I first heard the term “liminal time” from Sr. Audrey Doetzel, a Sister of Our Lady of Sion. Liminal living is living in an intermediate state of life. It’s kind of like the in-between time when perhaps we’re single, but we want to be married. Or we’re living in an apartment, but we’d prefer to be i... (www.catholic365.com)

When is the right time?

Commonly, we get our priorities messed up. Not that we are always doing so knowingly. No, we do so because we see an apparent need. As I have heard from Matthew Kelly and will paraphrase (hopefully not badly), the most important things in life are hardly ever urgent and the most urgent things are... (www.catholic365.com)

Preventing Homily Abuse

Faithful Catholics know what makes a bad homily. We have sat through enough of them in our lifetimes. Often we are asked or rather, urged, to be more understanding of less eloquent priests. Now, I can’t be sure why our clergy doesn’t understand, as Archbishop Villegas reminds us that: “Homily abuse... (www.catholic365.com)

The Lord Wastes Nothing

Nothing will be wasted. What a beautiful promise the Lord makes to us in that one verse. He was speaking of the bread that had been multiplied to feed the hungry who had come together to hear Him preach. If He says this about bread, how much more would He say it about my life?...

If the kingdom of God is not first, it doesn't matter what's second.

Many people are looking for signs that the Second Coming of Christ is going to happen soon. We want evil-doers to get punished and removed from the world and from our lives and even from our thoughts. We want Satan's butt to get kicked the hell off of Earth.... (www.catholic365.com)

Humility, a good friend that we disregard.

Humility is looked upon positively, but none of us seem to really want humility. Some of it comes from an incorrect view of humility, but most of it comes from pride. The incorrect view of humility that I speak of is thinking less of ourselves. As I have heard it said, true humility is not thinki... (www.catholic365.com)

An Open Letter to Hillary Clinton and Her Supporters

I am one of the ‘uneducated poor whites’ (according to media pundits) who voted for Donald Trump and want to explain why I did so, to you and to your hundreds of thousands of sad, angry followers. Many of whom are my friends. And who will most likely delete this article when they see it posted on th... (www.catholic365.com)
