Is Being a Mother Really Enough?

If there is one picture of the Madonna that resonates with me, it is this one, the Polish Madonna. I saw this picture for the first time when my children were very small and I was captivated by it. The image in my mind, of the Blessed Mother, was of the Queen of Heaven - so holy and revered, and sh... (www.catholic365.com)

Living a Grateful Life

Hey, you! Yes, I mean you. Have you looked around today? The trees look beautiful. They open their branches like someone giving you a hug. Look how deep the green is on their leaves. Look at the flowers underneath the trees. The trees have so much shade, and you can rest under them. It's coole... (www.catholic365.com)

A Call To Unity

Love, forgiveness, peace, unity and mercy are all common beliefs and teachings which set the Christian faith apart from other beliefs and religions.

For the faithful Catholic, the HBO series “Game of Thrones” is more than problematic. The rampant foul language and sexual deviance is a major deterrent to what would otherwise be a marvelous series.... (www.catholic365.com)

What wonderful thoughts and feelings which comes with those words. “I am Home.” We just arrived at 4 AM this early morning after 570 miles drive coming back from Texas.

These United States

You want to destroy the United States of America? Get in line. But don’t imagine that you will meet with success. The brilliance of the United States lies not in her infallibility – we are not infallible as some of our current laws attest – but that we believe in something so deeply rooted in hum...

The Cocktail Queen

Father Ignatius was washing his car in the church’s car park one afternoon when he was approached by a young lady wearing a low-cut T-shirt, a short skirt, and knee-length boots. “Are you the priest that works in this church?” she asked. He was still wearing his white collar and replied, “I am the P... (www.catholic365.com)

‘How Come You Catholics Reject the Bible?'

“How come you Catholics reject the Bible and follow man-made traditions? Why do you ignore Jesus, who condemned the Pharisees as hypocrites, and said, ‘You nullify the Word of God for the sake of your tradition!’? Don’t you understand that the Bible is divinely inspired, and the BIBLE ALONE is how G... (www.catholic365.com)

Reflections On The Passion of Our Lord

After praying the Divine Mercy Chaplet today at 3 o’clock, I began my normal prayer routine of meditating on the Stations of the Cross except something was different today. I think it could have been because I also did the prayers for First Friday and I was reflecting on those words when I entered i... (www.catholic365.com)

What The Oaks Teach Us

One of my favorite places in the entire world is Pass Christian, Mississippi, where I spend several weeks each year with my extended family and young grandsons. The “Pass” has been a playground for our family for more than a quarter century, ever since my sister JoJo began dating her now-husband Joh... (www.catholic365.com)

Did Evolution Occur Without God?

The prevailing worldview within the scientific and academic communities is that the material world of nature, which can be observed, measured and quantified by science, encompasses the whole of reality. This philosophical conviction that nature is “all there is” is called materialism or naturalism.... (www.catholic365.com)

Faith of Our Fathers: Saints Preserve Us, I'm In a Pickle

To many non Catholic or Orthodox believers, the concept of Saints or the idea of one person doing more than others is at least foreign and probably totally repugnant. Have you ever thought why?... (www.catholic365.com)

Mary, Motherhood and the Family of God

Mary's motherhood, like motherhood in general, was lived out quietly behind the scenes. St. Pope John Paul II pointed out that "History is written almost exclusively as the narrative of men's achievements, when in fact its better part is most often molded by women's determined and persevering action...

Risk Your Heart... Just A Little.

Guard your heart. Guard your heart. And guard your heart some more. For as long as I can remember this has been the Catholic cliché when it comes to dating. “I want to guard her heart… I want to guard his heart… Let’s all guard our hearts!” Yeah. Until they’re walled by stone.... (www.catholic365.com)

"Same-Sex "Marriage": The Great Illusion of the Modern, Secularist Era:

The United States Supreme Court has now heard the arguments for and against "gay- marriage". Now we wait to see what the almighty Justices have decided. We will not hear the decision until sometime during the early days of summer. As for me, I do not get it. No sirree, this does NOT make sense to me... (www.catholic365.com)

May, Mary's Month

I love the month of May. Here in the mountains of western Pennsylvania it means the snow is pretty much gone, and the weather is starting to warm up. The trees are beginning to turn green, and the birds are chirping. It’s a beautiful month... But, what I like most about it is that it is Mary’s month... (www.catholic365.com)

Is Suffering Insufferable?

People who question God’s existence often express their main point of contention as follows: how could an all-loving God permit suffering? And this is almost always followed by tragic examples. Wars. Famine. Cruelty. Sick crimes against defenseless people. And not only atheists and agnostics ask the... (www.catholic365.com)
