Why We've Forgotten About Purgatory
By JP Nunez
In recent years, Catholics in our culture have pretty much forgotten about the doctrine of purgatory. When people die, we often don’t pray for them, and even when we do, it’s usually more of a memorial than a real prayer. We basically just canonize the dead and imagine them to be in instant bliss. However, that’s not what our faith teaches.

Know Your Enemy
By Victoria Pangia
The devil is a deceiver, a liar, and a cheater. He seeks to ruin families, friendships, and individual souls. He seeks to steal, destroy, and kill. He wants you to be fearful, anxious, and depressed.

Hypocrisy In The Pews
By Margaret LaCovara-Reveira
During the confirmation hearings for Justice Brett Kavanaugh, I perused through my Facebook newsfeed and was grieved to notice that a worship leader at my husband’s non-denominational church...one who deliberately inputs the theatrical in public expressions of praise...had cheered on a leftist New Jersey senator in his dramatic rantings.

"Resurrection" / Fact or Fallacy?

Where is your joy?

When you first start out in Protestantism and you don't assume that the Spirit is completely with you and tells you everything without error, unlike the 999 other Protestant forms of religion that just aren't as holy as you, or aren't as conservative as you, or haven't read the Bible as many times as you,

By Troy Kroening
George Floyd has died tragically. COVID-19 is a worldwide pandemic killing thousands. And yet, abortion is still killing the most innocent of us, even more than COVID-19. Our world is suffering. Well, of course it is. We did not need COVID-19 or the tragic death of George Floyd to know that, but sadly that is what it has taken for us to finally realize it. Are we just too dense?!?
