You Can Be a Saint 3:41

1M ago3:41

3:41

The Catechism of the Catholic Church describes a saint as "someone who practiced heroic virtue and lives in fidelity to God’s grace." (828) And in the simple words of Mother Teresa, saints are “only sinners who keep trying.” They just knew how much God loved them. Can that not be us as well? Do you know the depths of how much God loves you? Search …

Humor & Humility 6:14

2M ago6:14

6:14

Should Catholics have a sense of humor? Why is it important and even necessary for us to find things funny and how does that relate to humility? It's no coincidence that humor and humility share a common route. When we are truly humble, we see the world in its proper proportion. So, when things become out of proportion or incongrous, we can laugh! …

Who are the Angels? 26:02

2M ago26:02

26:02

Saint. Thomas Aquinas is so outstanding. The Lord has given him the ability to take very complex matters, such as the differences between animal, human and Angel, and break them down into logical, extremely understandable terms. He was particularly enraptured by Angels, as are we. He made a study of them. I have to believe he got a lot of help in h…

Has a saint ever found you? A saint is somebody who finished the race - who fought the good fight - who persevered until the end. Those souls, now fully alive in heaven, are given to us by God as models.

Delighting in God's Commands 4:31

4:31

Imagine if every person in the world obeyed the Ten Commandments. No lying. No stealing. No murder, cheating, or hate. Imagine the peace and joy that we would experience! God made us to be in union with him. How does the way that God asks us to live lead us closer to that love? How can we reframe from our default disposition—how can I get what I wa…

Love is a Verb 4:08

4M ago4:08

4:08

Is love, or the virtue of charity, really just a feeling? Can we just think nice thoughts about somebody and truly say that we love them? Scripture and tradition say otherwise. Love is active, not passive. Being charitable means doing things for those you love even when it costs you something. The greatest example of that is the Cross - when Christ…

Hope When It's Hard 6:03

4M ago6:03

6:03

How does hope keep us afloat even when things get tough? Or when it feels like we are enslaved to chronic sin? Hope sustains us because it is found in Jesus Christ. He became man to save us from our sin so that we might spend eternity with him. His grace is available to us especially in the Sacrament of Confession, when we come to him with a contri…

Especially in a season like Advent, it is good to sit with Mary. The Mother of God models our waiting for Jesus after her waiting. Think how often throughout those nine months she had to put faith in so many: the angel Gabriel. God the Father. Her husband Joseph. How can you put faith in God this day?

Bride of Christ 4:13

4:13

The entire Christian life bears the mark of the spousal love of Christ and the Church. What does this mean? This spousal love is in fact Jesus' longing to give himself to us through his Church. This love of Christ is reflected not only in the Church but also in our bodies as male and female. We are made for relationship, made to be given as a gift …

3:45

"You will know the truth, and the truth will set you free." (John 8:32) As brought to light in Scripture, truth and freedom are not mutually exclusive. Truth is in fact the birthplace of freedom. When we direct our free will towards the service of the truth, it is then that we more free. The Catechism defines freedom as a power "rooted in reason an…

Catholics are known for their pro-life beliefs. Have you ever considered how giving somebody your undivided attention supports our belief in the dignity of every human person?
