We Are Made For The Infinite!
We Are Made For The Infinite!
By Kathy Lamb
When I was growing up I took my faith for granted. There was a crucifix in every room in our house. There was a crucifix in every classroom at school. There was a big crucifix above the altar at Church. There was a little crucifix on my rosary. I understood that Jesus died for me and I was grateful for this sacrifice.

Who is my neighbor?
Who is my neighbor?
By Troy Kroening
This is the question of a scholar of the law to Jesus, but it is also our question. It is the very question that leads to the parable of the good Samaritan. As Jesus ends the parable, He asks who was the victim’s neighbor. The answer is very important. “The one who treated him with mercy.” – [Luke 10:37]

Sometimes, there can be no middle ground.
Sometimes, there can be no middle ground.
By Troy Kroening
Belief in Jesus is an all or nothing matter. You either belief or you don’t. Some try to water down Jesus and take what they like and ignore what they dislike. Belief in Jesus is not a buffet where you can pick and choose. Yes, there are those growing in their faith in Jesus and that is a great thing, but this has to do with those comfortable in a middle ground that does not really exist.

12 Love-notes from God
By Fr. Bede Camera, O.S.B.
1. Be with me; as St. Anselm said, enter into your inner chamber, where you are alone with me and yet not alone at all. Hide yourself with me, and even in the midst of storms and trials and oppressions, for a time you are free from all of that, and hidden, and safe, and forever loved.

How We're Piecing Together the Ideal Religious Education for Our Children
How We're Piecing Together the Ideal Religious Education for Our Children
By Jennifer Edwards
I am a pastoral minister by profession. I have a degree in Theology, and I’m enraptured with all things related to Catholic doctrine and spirituality. At heart, I’m an evangelist, and therefore, my children’s formation is exceedingly important to me. I want them to know the faith, but more importantly, I want them to be disciples of Jesus Christ. I don’t want them to become a statistic.

Finally Home
Finally Home
By William Hemsworth
The Catholic Liturgy entails many things. We gather together to ask the Lord’s blessing, and to remember what He has done for us. We listen to sacred scripture and see how the Old and New Testaments are connected. We gather as one family united in our faith in the Lord, but most importantly we gather to celebrate the death, burial, and resurrection of Christ and His presence in the Eucharist.

Bless your Enemies
Bless your Enemies
By David Torkington
I simply worshipped the heroes of ancient Greece when I was at school. I loved to hear stories about Troy and the heroes who fought there. I loved to read about the Persian wars and about the warriors who fought for freedom at Marathon, Salamis and Thermopylae. Most of all I worshipped Alexander the Great and marvelled at the mighty empire that he set up before he was even thirty.
