Judas' betrayal was not his most serious sin

You are Either Catholic or Not!
You are Either Catholic or Not!
By Lorrie McNickle
You know, you are either Catholic are you are not. There really is no middle group or compromises on this notion. Being a Catholic means that you adhere to the precepts of the Church, all of them.

Seven lessons from the Garden of Eden
By Joby Provido
The imagery of Genesis 2:7 likens God to a potter who creates man out of the earth. Since non-living material things can only result in other non-living things, mankind would not be alive at all unless life was infused into him.

Acceptance and Trust
Acceptance and Trust
By Rev. John H. Hampsch, C.M.F
Some nimble-witted sage once said, “It’s better to lose an argument than to lose a friend by winning an argument.” Those who enter into arguments with God most frequently are those who are prone to resisting his providence when he allows adversities in their life.

Rewards and Trust
By Rev. John H. Hampsch, C.M.F
Here’s a thought-provoking snippet from the writings of St. John Climacus: “God in his unspeakable providence has arranged that some receive their reward for their toils even before they set to work, others while actually working, and others when their work is done, and still others only after the time of their death.
