In Times of Plenty, Beware the Golden Calf
In Times of Plenty, Beware the Golden Calf
By Dean P. Johnson
Often times we are so focused on the present moment that we can fail to see the bigger picture. I often like to step back and take a look at my spiritual journey to see not only how far I have come, but to look at how many diversions, detours, and dalliances I have taken.

Don't Ask Me to Change!!
Don't Ask Me to Change!!
By Elizabeth Thomas
There have been three themes for some blogs that have been placed within my heart—but had not yet been put to paper. Tonight, I see now why this was so, as I received the connecting words read from a book-”God's Words Heals” by Derek Prince. He was speaking about the parable found in Luke 5:36 where no one puts a piece from a new garment on an old one, lest it tear.

Romans 4 and the Sacraments
Romans 4 and the Sacraments
By De Maria
I was pleasantly surprised that there was so much interest in the difference between how Catholics and Protestants understand Romans 10. That being the case, I’d like to highlight where Catholics and Protestants differ on the understanding of Romans 4. This chapter contains several quotes which Protestants also use to support faith alone.

Prayer Before Surgery
Prayer Before Surgery
By Malleson Emmerling
I was diagnosed with Stage 2 breast cancer three months after my mom died of cancer. The sense of urgency to remove the cancer from my body was enormous. Terrified, I consulted with my family practice doctor a few hours after my annual mammogram.

The Saint Makers in Your Life
The Saint Makers in Your Life
By Clare Lafferty
This morning, already running late for work, I looked at my gas gauge and realized I needed to make a stop to fuel up. Waiting in line, I glanced in my rear view mirror. There was a car behind me who had just pulled in and I thought nothing of it. Then, the car pulled around me and to the pump in front of me- the pump I had been waiting for.

Where does the Bible say that people in heaven can hear our prayers?
Where does the Bible say that people in heaven can hear our prayers?
By De Maria
I hate to answer a question with a question, but please bear with me. Do you believe in the Trinity? I’m assuming that you do.

From Here to Eternity
From Here to Eternity
By David Torkington
Some years ago I had dinner with friends in London. When I was leaving their home I was introduced to the husband’s father, who was busy digging in the garden. Taken by surprise and not knowing what to say I asked a rather stupid question – “And what are you doing?” I said.

The Doors! The Doors!
The Doors! The Doors!
By Bernice Pillart Dumitru
As Pope Francis opens the Holy Door for the Year of Mercy let us reflect on that symbol and enter into this time of great Grace. The Scripture begins with a closing of a door in Genesis and ends with Jesus standing outside that door and knocking in Revelation. The door symbolizes our free will before God.

Call No Man Your Father on Earth
Call No Man Your Father on Earth
By Kevin Noles
Don’t you know that the Bible tells us not to call any man Father? Why are Catholics so persistent in their unbiblical practices of calling Priests Father? It has been awhile since I have heard these statements, but I am sure I will hear them again at some point in my lifetime. Occasionally I have heard “Why do Catholics call their Priests Father?”

Who is the Schoolmaster that leads us to Christ?
Who is the Schoolmaster that leads us to Christ?
By De Maria
Galatians 3:24 Wherefore the law was our schoolmaster to bring us unto Christ, that we might be justified by faith. This verse was written by St. Paul of Tarsus.  What is he talking about? Most people seem to think he is talking about the Ten Commandments.  And there's nothing wrong with that answer

Mercy Has No Limits
Mercy Has No Limits
By James M. Littleton
Mercy and forgiveness go both ways, God toward us, and us toward others. As concerns others forgiving us, we cannot control that. It is a futile waste of time and energy to try to control others. We can only control, with the help of God’s grace, our own attitudes and actions.

Lambs, Hips, and Green Pastures
Lambs, Hips, and Green Pastures
By Ross Decker
I was on a gurney being rolled into the operating room. Years of hip pain were now about to end as I was on my way in to get a total hip replacement. I knew it was too late to back out, but I was a little bit nervous. "Does anyone here know the 23rd psalm?" I asked. No one did. A nurse asked if I had written it down. She'd be glad to read it to me. "That's ok", I said. "I know it. I'll just say it

The Spirit of John the Baptist
The Spirit of John the Baptist
By Mary Rivers
Each advent with the readings of John the Baptist, I am reminded of one in my youth, one whom I perceived as a great prophet, one who would bring unity to our country with equal justice for all. America then would become like Israel of old, and bring truth to all nations.
