Contemplating God's Amazing Love, Compassion, and Forgiveness
Contemplating God's Amazing Love, Compassion, and Forgiveness
By Dean P. Johnson
As we are made in God’s image, we are called to do the same. But what does this mean? As a parent, I have been upset with a child, but of course still tend to their needs, their comfort. That’s easy. But what of others outside of our families? Do we have compassion for those who have wronged us? And not just for those who may have wronged us personally, but those who we see on the news

Happiness is what we need
Happiness is what we need
By Tess Shore
It seems as Advent is a time to repent and celebrate the coming of our Christ. However, over the last ten years it has become a time of year I dread. People are cranky. People are fighting with the checkout clerks, that is, if you are lucky to have one. People are fighting over getting the latest toy or electronic. We are complaining about whatever we can find to complain about.

Original Sin And The Need For A Savior
Original Sin And The Need For A Savior
By Alex Brittain
We are now approaching the Christmas season and are in the midst of the Season of Advent in which we celebrate the coming of our Lord on Christmas, and we also anticipate His Second Coming in which He will return to Earth in glory to judge the living and the dead. But, why is this so important for us Christians?

Romans 10 vs Protestantism
Romans 10 vs Protestantism
By De Maria
Frequently, Protestants will say that Romans 10:4 supports the doctrine of faith alone. However, for anyone who is steeped in the Sacred Traditions of Jesus Christ which are the bedrock of the New Testament, the Teaching of Rom 10 is very clear and it has nothing to do with justification by faith alone.

Peace and Joy Possible in This World, Too
Peace and Joy Possible in This World, Too
By Bill Dunn
Let’s be honest, the primary reason Christianity is so attractive is the promise of eternal life. Jesus said that whoever believes in Him will not perish but will receive everlasting life. What a wonderful offer.

Sola Scriptura - Did Anyone Consider This?
Sola Scriptura - Did Anyone Consider This?
By David R. Myers
Hopefully everyone good enough to read this blog has an idea what “sola scriptura” means. It is the idea that belief should rest on the written text of the Bible alone, and that things which are not mentioned in the Bible should be discarded from belief.

Here is How the Bible PROVES that Mary is the Ark of the New Covenant
Here is How the Bible PROVES that Mary is the Ark of the New Covenant
By Arnold Scott
Protestants tend to downplay the role of Mary in salvation history, emphasizing that the New Testament does not focus on her too much. Exalted titles for Mary, such as the "Ark of the New Covenant" appear to them as distracting from the centrality of Christ, and probably even blasphemous. But... What if I could PROVE that the BIBLE plainly teaches that Mary is the "Ark of the New Covenant"?

War On Women?
War On Women?
By Linda Kracht
We hear often enough that a war is being waged against women in the United States. Yet, war (the noun) is defined as the state of armed conflict between different nations or states or different groups within a nation or state. That definition makes it hard to continue arguing that a war is being waged against US women. For who is the provocateur; when did it start and why;

I stopped going to church and joined the Church
I stopped going to church and joined the Church
By Ross Decker
I follow a page on Facebook which regularly identifies the “Six Things that” bedevil and otherwise hamper Protestant Church leaders. Often those things are lack of giving, hurt feelings, and style of worship. Once, it covered the four comedic rules to becoming a better leader. Recently, one caught my eye.

The Church and Authority: Part 3 Apostolic Succession in the Church
The Church and Authority: Part 3 Apostolic Succession in the Church
By Kevin Noles
Whenever I talk about Apostolic Authority the typical response is something along the lines of “I believe in God’s authority not an authority coming from a man.” The nature of the Church’s authority is indeed God but a better way to ask this question may be to ask how the authority was given.

The Devil is Winning, and We are Paving his Way
The Devil is Winning, and We are Paving his Way
By Lorrie McNickle
The Devil is winning. He is becoming stronger and taking hold of this world. We are not even putting up a fight. We cave so easily because of our fear and lack of trust in God. We fail to act with mercy and compassion and instead exude a spirit of hatred, intolerance and bigotry toward our brothers and sisters in need.

Heaven Unveiled: The Apocalypse
Heaven Unveiled: The Apocalypse
By Nancy Marie Murray
Frightening images of dragons, beasts, and battles fill the pages of the Book of Revelation, or the Apocalypse, the final book of the New Testament. The word “Apocalypse”, which actually means “unveiling,” has become synonymous with the cataclysmic end of time. What does it all mean and how can we better understand this enigmatic book?

Does the Bible say we must keep the Law perfectly in order to be saved?

Four Weeks Before Christmas-Advent
Four Weeks Before Christmas-Advent
By Dr. Lin Weeks Wilder
For much of my life, the four weeks before Christmas were jam packed with parties, mostly work related and therefore obligatory, shopping excursions to unearth novel gifts for people who did not need them. And making plans for a much needed vacation when the week of Christmas and New Year's finally arrived.

Advent-2015
Advent-2015
By Dr. Lin Weeks Wilder
Sunday, November 29, we end the longest period of Ordinary Time in the liturgical year. Almost 9 months ago we joined the universal Church in celebrating 40 days of the incomparable joy of Jesus' resurrection from the dead. And now we are invited into a different kind of celebration - quieter, more intimate and perhaps for women, more personal.

Happy Liturgical New Year!...Your Guiding Scripture Verse?
Happy Liturgical New Year!...Your Guiding Scripture Verse?
By Bobbie Ann Taylor
They—were honored participants in the weekday Mass that concluded their extended retreat experience. We—were noontime Mass regulars, privileged listeners. They, after the homily, were invited to share the verse that had guided their retreat experience. Verses, I suspect, that revealed much about where they were, had been, or wanted to be in their spiritual journey.

Our body is a temple of God
Our body is a temple of God
By Tess Shore
We feel that we are being judged by our peers. We think we are being judged because we are not "good enough Catholics". However, somehow we are placing all this pressure on ourselves that we sometimes end up caving into the pressures of demoralizing our bodies by committing suicide.
