At the Boundary of Doubt: Faith
At the Boundary of Doubt: Faith
By Dr. Lin Weeks Wilder
In listening to snippets of conversations at the gym, after daily Mass or casual conversations with other vacationers here in Pismo Beach, I hear the same anxieties, doubts and fears. Whether the subject is gang violence, terrorism or the upcoming presidential election, the sense of desperation mixed with cynicism is almost tangible

Well, it’s done. The reality I wrote of in my first piece for Catholic365 is upon us and Donald Trump is one of two viable candidates for the presidency.

Are You Angry?
Are You Angry?
By Crysaly Aviles
Why are you angry with God? Why are you bitter and resentful? Are you convinced that the situation you find yourself in is somehow His fault? You’re wrong. Scripture says that “God does not willingly bring affliction or grief to anyone,” (Lamentations 3:33).

The Importance Of Remembering
The Importance Of Remembering
By Sarah Mathew
Our ability to remember is an incredible gift. I call it a gift because the one who gave it, our God, gave it to us packaged within our faculties. It is like a little box that we can take out and reach into and pull out images, smells and feelings of the past that can either lift us up or bring us down.

The Great Uncertainty - Problems with Individual Fallibility
The Great Uncertainty - Problems with Individual Fallibility
By Adam Crawford
Yesterday I listened to a two hour debate between Catholic author and apologist Devin Rose, and Nathaniel Taylor a graduate of Biola University, Westminster Theological Seminary, and a current philosophy student at Talbot School of Theology. I thoroughly enjoyed listening to their debate; hopefully Devin and Nate will excuse me for weighing in with a couple of my own thoughts.

There's a Rumor Going Around that….
By David R. Myers
You just got an email from a friend who passed it on from another friend who got it from an acquaintance who downloaded it from a friend of a friend’s friend on Facebook. This email claims that, in fact, our political system was secretly invaded some years ago by a galactic vegetable people who have been able to infiltrate the US House of Representatives and the US Senate

Voting Your Conscience
Voting Your Conscience
By Lorrie McNickle
I am seeing this "Voting your conscience" thrown around quite a bit lately. What exactly does it mean though? It seems to me, it’s justifying why we do what we want, instead of what God wants. We probably are very well intentioned, but some of us seem think that our conscience is above the Church’s authority.

Life, Piano, Love, Music.
Life, Piano, Love, Music.
By Robert Louis Rodriguez
Life for me is a lot like playing piano. Going from chord to chord requires me knowing where I am and where I want to go. The more I know, the easier I can make it for myself to get there, it also can make it much more fun and far less boring. I can also use combinations of chords to reflect how I feel, whether sad or happy, or better yet to set a mood,

Transfiguration of Christ
Transfiguration of Christ
By Charlie Johnston
The transfiguration of Christ is a very interesting and important story, so important that it appears in all three of the synoptic Gospels and in the second letter of Saint Peter (2 Peter 1:16-18).

Smile! God loves you!
Smile! God loves you!
By Troy Kroening
Though we may continually fall into sin, we still have an all-powerful God that loves us. Nothing we can do can stop Him from loving us. Indeed, we are not more powerful than God. He died to remove our sins, even those we are in the midst of. He is not going to cast us aside. Doing so, He would have to cast aside who He is.

Providence
Providence
By Robert Louis Rodriguez
I was changing my daughter’s diaper the other day, always a joyous occasion. As I finished and went to prepare her bottle I started thinking. She doesnt really know whats being done, what’s going on, or all the ‘behind the scenes’ things her mother and I do for her. The very basic sustenance she receives is beyond her knowledge or control.

Our Father!
Our Father!
By James Dsouza
March 13, 2013: Knowing Father of the Church. Hurray ! We have a Pope! With it, began my relationship with him which I never had before. Ever since he became known to the world, I oddly sense his every heartbeat and read his every thought, in his every tweet, in his every post, in his every act. With it, I began to know the Father of Catholic Church.

Early Church Councils
Early Church Councils
By Richard Maffeo
A knowledge of Church history is more important than most 21st century Christians realize. The various doctrines we adhere to today regarding God, Jesus, the Holy Trinity, the scriptures, salvation, etc., did not occur in a vacuum. They are the result of 2000 years of theological discussion – the foundations of which were laid in the first several centuries of Christian history.

Activate your super powers.
Activate your super powers.
By Troy Kroening
We can have super powers like super heroes. Our super powers come not from ourselves, but from God. Jesus even told us, “whoever believes in me will do the works that I do, and will do greater ones than these, because I am going to the Father.” – [John 14:12]

Working for Mercy
Working for Mercy
By Carleigh Lutz
In a day and age that perpetually screams at you if you attempt to tell someone that what they are doing is morally wrong, it can be pretty hard to convince yourself to even try anymore. Frankly, we as a people are starting to find it a little easier to just turn our cheek the other direction to pretend we don’t see what’s happening around us
