The First 3 Joyful Mysteries: Analogy of all Human History?
The First 3 Joyful Mysteries: Analogy of all Human History?
By Scott Pauline
If the birth of Christ symbolizes, by Advent Tradition, the Second Coming of Christ, perhaps the whole time period in months from the outset, that is, from the conception of St John the Baptist, all the way through to that same birth of Christ is an image of the whole Divine Plan.

Matthew 16: Catholic vs. Protestant
Matthew 16: Catholic vs. Protestant
By Christopher McCarthy
The primacy of Peter is perhaps one of the strongest points of contention between Catholics and non-Catholics today. Since the Protestant Reformation in the 16th Century, a plethora of interpretations have developed surrounding the famous passage of Matthew 16:18-19, where Christ declares that Peter is the “rock” upon which He will found His Church

Forgiveness Is Awesome, But Sin Still Hurts
Forgiveness Is Awesome, But Sin Still Hurts
By Bill Dunn
At Mass this weekend, all three readings have the same theme: God’s forgiveness. In the first reading, the prophet Nathan confronted King David. David recently had done a couple of rather nasty things. First, he committed adultery; then, in an attempt to cover it up, he committed murder.

A Case of Mistaken Identity
A Case of Mistaken Identity
By Mike Bugal
I’ve read many remarks from readers both of my articles and those of other authors here. One comment in particular that has caught my attention is the Facebook posters who will make the angry comment, “I’m not going to read this site anymore. I thought this was a source of sound Catholic doctrine but you allow so-and-so to write his drivel.”

Jesus and Extraterrestrial Life: Meditation on John 10:14-18
Jesus and Extraterrestrial Life: Meditation on John 10:14-18
By John Mayer
This article will discuss a theory that is not Church teaching or doctrine. It is a theory I have not encountered elsewhere, but feel should be pondered and further explored. I do not wish to offend anyone in writing this article and if it comes across as heretical or absurd, please discredit or discard it.

Pregnancy, Wonderful and Beautiful! Revelation of the Developing Old Testament?
Pregnancy, Wonderful and Beautiful! Revelation of the Developing Old Testament?
By Scott Pauline
just as a beloved lady must carry a child in her womb for nine months, so, in any world that would happen to Fall and that was to then receive an Incarnation from God, I believe that there would need to be the same nine theological phases of history to prepare for Incarnate One.

Living Sermons
Living Sermons
By Tony Crescio
Preach the Gospel at all times, and if necessary, use words. So goes the saying often attributed to the Italian saint, Francis of Assisi. Implied, of course, within this famous quote, is the idea that we have the ability to preach the gospel with the whole of our lives.

Love Makes the Word Go Round
Love Makes the Word Go Round
By Linda Kracht
After sitting down to write this article I googled: number of couples still married after forty years. Some interesting references popped up but the one that caught my eye was titled 40 Lessons from Forty Years of Marriage by Dennis Rainey. I shouldn’t have read it! Not because I didn’t agree with him but because I did. Rainey perfectly captured points I planned to write about.

Building Memories
Building Memories
By Mary Rivers
In old age, one often closes their eyes to reflect upon the past, a past composed of people- like stepping stones in a babbling brook. One remembers children, their birth and antics; loves, some whom have passed on. Happy memories keep one attached to other people; things and places aren’t sentient beings.

The Sweetness of Humility
The Sweetness of Humility
By Kathy Lamb
Humility is the virtue from which all other virtues flow making it most important. When we’re baptized we become children of God. Jesus Christ, God’s Son, was the perfect model of humility. He emptied Himself to do God’s will. As children of God it should be natural for us to follow the example of Jesus our Divine brother.

Father Peter Mary Rookey
By Kathy Lamb
I wrote this on September 15, 2014 about Father Peter Mary Rookey and am sharing his impact on my life. Father Peter Mary Rookey died peacefully in his sleep on September 10th. Today I told him goodbye at his funeral Mass at Our Lady of Sorrows in Chicago. I wasn’t sure if I would be able to go to his funeral with my current medical problems.

God; a mystery yet knowable
God; a mystery yet knowable
By Charlie Johnston
We speak of the mystery of God and the Holy Trinity, but what does this mean? Didn't Jesus reveal all that we need to know? Hasn't the Holy Spirit been sent to lead us "into all truth"(John 16:13)? Like most matters pertaining to Catholicism, the answer is both/and, not either/or.

Fitting Harambe into Genesis
Fitting Harambe into Genesis
By Tony Crescio
As I am sure many of you know, recently a 3-year-old boy fell into a gorilla pen at a Cincinnati zoo where he met a 17-year-old Silverback Gorilla named Harambe. Responding to the situation, zoo authorities made the decision to put the animal down in order to save the boy’s life, which, given the gorilla’s power, could have been ended in an instant.
