Drawing Near to Christ While Witnessing Your Loved One's Agony
Drawing Near to Christ While Witnessing Your Loved One's Agony
By Janet Moore
A few days ago, I witnessed my daughter’s skin being torn from her body … the excruciating pain she endured is hard to shake … For me, the saints’ martyrdoms that were most disturbing were those whose agonies consisted of their skin being ripped, torn, or cut from their bodies or those who were burnt alive…

Jesus Says Repentance Is Important
Jesus Says Repentance Is Important
By Bill Dunn
Here’s a concept that will shock you: Satan, the devil himself, knows more correct theology about God than even the most brilliant saints in Church history. It’s true! Satan, after all, is a supernatural being with an intellect far greater than mere mortals.

Saving Time

It is Sunday, and we moved our clocks ahead to save time again. Because of this, the question came to my mind,--and I will ask you. If you save time---where do you put it? Where do you store it so you can go get it when needed?

Satan's Tactics - Reflection on the Gospel of the 1st Sunday of Lent
By David Christensen
Jesus has just finished fending off Satan for 40 days in the desert. That’s 40 days without food. 40 days in the heat, with sand everywhere, without a shower. 40 days of saying “no” to sin and “yes” to God. Sounds like Lent, or what it’s meant to be!

Lent a spiritual fight
Lent a spiritual fight
By Troy Kroening
It might seem odd to call Lent a spiritual fight. After all, fasting is physical and not spiritual, right? Well, not only is fasting spiritual, but abstaining from meat is also spiritual. Indeed, they are both. Our body and soul are not separate pieces that do not affect each other. What we do with one affects the other.

The Devil Preys
The Devil Preys
By Carol Monaco
When Jesus wandered through the desert for 40 days, He faced the devil’s temptations. The devil attempted to prey upon Jesus just as the devil attempts to prey upon us—to sever our relationship with God.

How Do We Attain Eternal Salvation to Heaven?
By Steven R. Hemler
A very important part of this life is believing and acting as necessary to attain heavenly salvation. For what good does it do to attain success and happiness in this world, if we are eternally lost? Our temporal life is merely a preparation and prerequisite for our eternal life.

The Troubling Sacrifice of Isaac
The Troubling Sacrifice of Isaac
By JP Nunez
The Old Testament contains numerous passages that modern readers find disturbing, and one of the most troubling is the story of God’s command to Abraham to sacrifice his son Isaac (Genesis 22:1-19). We would never sacrifice our children even if a voice claiming to be God told us to, so it is difficult for us to understand why Abraham would do it.

What are you doing to reach the next generation?
What are you doing to reach the next generation?
By Zaid Kanafani
As a parent, one thing scares me more than anything else. I wouldn’t call it a constant fear. But, it’s definitely a concern. What if my daughter grows up not loving Jesus Christ? What if her generation is the one that gives away some of the freedoms they have as Americans? What if knowing God is somehow irrelevant as she grows older?

The Veil was Torn In Two - The Liturgy
The Veil was Torn In Two - The Liturgy
By Susan Skinner
In my work in deliverance ministry we talk a lot about covenant and how the Jewish people all knew what this was and what was expected of them in covenant. We know too throughout history that other cultures have partaken in covenants with one another where the pact made with the group is a stronger bond than anything else.

The Dangers Lurking Amongst Us
The Dangers Lurking Amongst Us
By Lorrie McNickle
The Church these days can be a scary place, can't it? Well, I would imagine that there have always been scary aspects to the Church, in the Church and around the Church. Jesus Christ himself established the One, Holy, True and Apostolic Church, as a place where we could come and find him, physically present, body blood, soul and divinity in the Holy Eucharist.
