The Virgin Mary by Fr. Raymond de Saint Laurent Book Review

Spiritual stagnation is not uncommon for those who strive for Christian perfection. The remedy often comes from a book that one just happens to pick up, not realizing it as a vehicle for grace. Darkness is dispelled as we turn the pages and are enlightened with truths of the faith that are presented... (www.catholic365.com)

As your faith is strengthened you will find that there is no longer the need to have a sense of control, that things will flow as they will, and that you will flow with them, to your great delight and benefit.

Faith. I think we test our faith everyday. We find it hard to have the faith of the centurion in today’s gospel, whose faith is so strong that he is willing to turn everything over to God.... (www.catholic365.com)

The Prodigal Son & His Brother

We've all heard the story of the prodigal son, even non-believers are somewhat familiar with it. I've heard it preached on, lectured about, I've read articles and blog posts about it, I've studied it on my own, but I've always come at it from point of view of the prodigal son himself....

Hear my prayer, O Lord, and give ear to my cry; Do not be silent at my tears

Not long ago I had a disturbing dream about death in the Catholic school where I taught for many years. It was a dream that stuck to me and made me very anxious. Details are not important but I felt the message was urgent. However, I did not tell anyone although I felt that I needed to share it w... (www.catholic365.com)

The Sin of Pride

Pride, is the deadliest of all vices. Yet it is the one that we seem to fall victim to the most and in the worst ways. It is also a vice veiled in what seems to be honorable and true. How many of us boast about pride in our work, our offspring, and our accomplishments? Some of us even boast of our p... (www.catholic365.com)

The Tax Collector, Saint Matthew

Men tell us in these days that sin is what you think it is. Well, it is not. Sin is what God thinks it is.

We have become quite familiar with “mission statements” which are produced by institutions, both secular and religious. These statements proclaim the purpose of the institution, what they are about, what they’re supposed to do. But all of us know that those who fulfill that mission can do so in a v...

The Fraility of Human Love Compared to God's

Human love is so fragile. Almost everyone has been hurt by someone they’ve loved, and has lost a loved one through death or estrangement. Human love can be sweet, blessed, and wonderful one moment; and sorrowful, frustrating, and painful another moment.... (www.catholic365.com)

Philip Rivers Most Valuable Catholic

With all of the excitement that comes with a canonization ceremony one cannot help but ponder the thought, “Am I currently living among future Catholic saints?” The answer is most likely yes, but in the spirit of the 2016 NFL season I’d like to consider one man who has almost certainly earned his h...

Have you ever been in your parish priest’s office? Have you ever noticed how many books he has on bookshelves? Visit the home of a deacon. He will have as many, if not more books. Now take a look and find the Holy Bible. You won’t find one, you will find many! Most of them will not be the standard N... (www.catholic365.com)

A house must be built on solid foundations if it is to last. The same principle applies to man, otherwise he too will sink back into the soft ground and become swallowed up by the world

"By their fruits, you shall know them." The gospel speaks of building our lives on the foundation of solidity and real strength, rooted firmly on the Word of God. The Gospel message is unequivocal – to live a life rooted in firmness and truth, we have to live a life that does not waver when trials... (www.catholic365.com)

Can the Catholic Church Help us Reach Heaven?

Road maps have always been fascinating works of art. They are drawn to scale and provide an aerial rendering of city locations, streets, highways, county lines, scenic markers, waterways, bridges, and bypasses. They give us a sense of how everything is connected and directional guidelines to help on... (www.catholic365.com)

We've Been Given More Than Enough Warning

The gospel reading at Mass this weekend is the parable of the rich man and the beggar named Lazarus. (No, not the same guy Jesus raised from the dead. Apparently, Lazarus was the first century version of Bob or Fred, that is, a very common name.) The rich man, Jesus explained, “dined sumptuously eac... (www.catholic365.com)
