POPE JOHN IV, FINALLY SOLVING A PROBLEM
By Debra Booton McCoy
Pope John IV was a native of Zadar, Dalmatia. This city is on the opposite side of the Adriatic Sea from Venice, but further south, giving the city a mild climate. With a beautiful coastline and harbor, it was a blessing and a curse in history. War and vacillating allegiances have rocked this area throughout time. John was pope during one of these times.

By Larry Peterson
They called him Brother “Fix-it” and his religious name was Brother Leo. He loved the poor and joined the order of the De La Salle Christian Brothers so that he could mentor, help, comfort, teach, and protect the poorest of God’s children.

Married Priests? Women Priests?
Married Priests? Women Priests?
By Ralph Hathaway
A byline in the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette, Wednesday, November 21, 2018, by George P. Shultz, that gives me the opportunity to write on an issue that seems to get the attention of many. Yet these questions appear to miss the point of the Catholic Church denouncing these particular thoughts.

By Larry Peterson
All Soul’s Day is more than just a day to remember and pray for our departed loved ones. It is a day we should embrace fully because the faith we carry within us is validated. That validation is there for all of us because we can see the Mercy and Love of God and how it is available to every person, everywhere---if they so choose.

Thanksgiving: a Time to Pause, be Humble, and Give THANKS to GOD
Thanksgiving: a Time to Pause, be Humble, and Give THANKS to GOD
By Larry Peterson
Thanksgiving is the one day of the year where we stop, take a breath from the year gone by, and say THANK YOU to God for all that we have. The simplicity of this holiday embraces a quiet virtue which exposes itself that day. On this day that virtue manages to transcend all the daily pride that infects so many of us. That virtue is Humility.

Teen Book Review - Mission Libertad
By Leslea Wahl
Mission Libertad is the story of Luisito, a young teenage boy who escapes Communist Cuba in 1979 with his parents. This is such a wonderful book with so many interesting aspects to it. First of all, it is a fabulous historic fiction for middle school and high school kids about a time in history that I haven’t seen much written about.

Is Faith enough when Scandals Confront our Church?
By Ralph Hathaway
We were just attempting to get our lives together, after the horrible and agonizing death of our Savior, Jesus Christ. It seemed like our community had just begun to accept the fact that now our leaders, Peter for one, were collecting the teachings of Jesus and reaching out to all of us.

The Analogy of Analogies: The Joyful Mysteries of Advent as Symbol of All Human History
By Scott Pauline
As a final argument for the discourse on the ages of the world, one would presumably ask, what in the world do the Joyful Mysteries of the rosary have to do with the beast kings, the days of creation, and all human history?

The Parable of the Eight Unclean Spirits and the Eight Kings of the Beast
The Parable of the Eight Unclean Spirits and the Eight Kings of the Beast
By Scott Pauline
A surprising support of our theology can be found in the parable of the unclean spirits in Matthew chapter 12. In this Gospel, an unclean spirit who inhabits a house is cast out, and the house is swept; later, the spirit returns with seven others that are even worse than the original, and the house is subsequently also worse than when it started.

Answering Objections to the Apocalypse 20 Thousand-Year Reign as the Age of the Triumph of the Immaculate Heart
Answering Objections to the Apocalypse 20 Thousand-Year Reign as the Age of the Triumph of the Immaculate Heart
By Scott Pauline
I would like now to deal with what would be common objections to the theology that argues that the dragon scenes of apocalypse image the entire divine plan with special focus on the Church age, and that the Millennium of Apocalypse 20 can image the coming Age of Peace of Our Lady.

Three Attributes St. Joan of Arc Taught This Military Veteran
By BJ Gonzalvo
The opportunity that I had to serve in the military is definitely a source of pride and honor for me. It was one of the most challenging things I have done in my life and it would not have been possible if not for the role models I had as a young service member. In the day-to-day challenges brought on by military life, I often drew lessons from the lives of the saints to give me inspiration,
