Obeying God's Will – Gateway to Security
By Rev. John H. Hampsch, C.M.F
In a facetious way, that minister’s response reflects an obediential mentality that Paul calls “obedience that comes from faith” (Rom 1:5). It is a faith-engendered response to the “active” aspect of God’s will, called his “signified” will. It involves the intent to do whatever God wants one to do, without question or hesitance.

Christ-Focus in Healing
By Rev. John H. Hampsch, C.M.F
To seek healing rather than the divine Healer is one of the most common forms of out-of-focus Christianity. (It is also one of the least recognized and hardest to correct.)

Christ-Focus in Spiritual Growth
By Rev. John H. Hampsch, C.M.F
The practice of virtue is like riding bicycle: if you stop moving forward, you fall down. It is a fragile state that can be weakened or even shattered by a lapse into worldliness, materialism, resentment, lust, unforgiveness, selfishness, self-pity, or any of a thousand other forms of failure.

Day 349 – The Whore of Babylon
By David Vermont
Today’s reading for study: Revelation 17 Today we see the “Whore of Babylon”. Oceans of ink have spilled on trying to define who she is and what or who she represents.

Learning to Value Suffering and a Natural Death, the Hard Way
By Fouad Abou-Rizk
I remember a weekend in my life where I wished I was dead, would die, had already died. My mouth was newly wired shut from a broken jaw and the pain was unbearable. I couldn’t receive any more pain medicine because I had already been given the full, prescribed amount. This was two years ago in February 2016 and I was 19 years old. I spent that weekend on the couch under the care of my parents.

Christ-Focus in Scripture
By Rev. John H. Hampsch, C.M.F
I once saw a fascinating copy of the United States Constitution engraved on a copper plate. Close-up, the letters of each word seemed uniform in size and depth.

By Flávia Ghelardi
This question only matters to a human being. An animal doesn’t have the intellectual capability to think about the meaning of its own life. It lives to eat, sleep and reproduce, nothing more. But a human being feels a longing about the meaning of his life, the reason for his existence.

Don't Miss these Symbolisms at Your Next Mass
By Joby Provido
As Catholics who have gone to countless Masses, we know the order of the different parts of the Mass, and the responses to the priest’s prompts come quite instinctively. But most Catholics might miss the symbolisms built in the liturgy because, well, we never knew they were there. Listed here are some of those symbols in words, objects, and gestures.

Christ-Focus in Prayer
By Rev. John H. Hampsch, C.M.F
An out-of-focus Christianity will likewise distort our prayer life. Without a close relationship with Jesus as a person, our prayer will be nothing more than a long-distance phone call to heaven.
