Answers to a Non-Catholic
Answers to a Non-Catholic
By Mike Bugal
I participate in several Catholic pages on Facebook. One of them is the page “Catholic Fundamentalism”. The author, whose name I don’t know, mostly attacks Evangelical Christianity/Protestantism.

Preparing for Lent
By Linda Kracht
Lent is a solemn Liturgical Season designed by the Church to draw us closer to the Lord.

By comparison, I’m talking about the tendency to look at someone else’s life or gifts and feel sad, upset, or even to fall into despair that you do not have the same kinds of gifts or talents that that someone has.

I am the crowd
I am the crowd
By Amelia Monroe Carlson
I am the crowd that cried ‘Crucify Him’. I am the crowd that demanded the release of a prisoner – a thief and robber – instead of the one who healed me...who fed me....who loved me and died for me.
