Out of the Mouths of Babes: "I already did!"
Out of the Mouths of Babes: "I already did!"
By Bobbie Ann Taylor
After another night in which our toddler cried, tugging at his ears, our family doctor recommended we take him to an ear specialist. Stunned by the results of the ear examination, we heard the news that our son had two punctured ear drums.

Want to do God's will? Listen up.
Want to do God's will? Listen up.
By Troy Kroening
No, that does not mean listen to me. Listen to God. (although you can continue reading too) It’s God’s will that you are seeking to accomplish. We cannot just start doing and think or hope that it is God’s will, just because what we are doing seems good.

Pondering in my Heart
Pondering in my Heart
By Ginny Kochis
Twenty weeks into my third pregnancy, I found myself crying hysterically as the ultrasound technician glided a magic wand over my swollen belly. She had just told me I was having a boy. I crumbled.

Playing with Fire: Our Dangerous Game
Playing with Fire: Our Dangerous Game
By Greg Schlueter
Our dangerous game. It took place during those drought weeks at the end of summer. We were middle school boys. Restless. Adventurous. In need of reprieve from daylong sports under the watchful eye of our parents. Bonded by a penchant for the mildly reprehensible, we’d venture deep into Wisconsin backwoods.

Standing up for Truth
Standing up for Truth
By Lori Conklin
I remember a few years back our district rolled out their new comprehensive math curriculum, our daughter was in second grade. We were amazed by the way the new curriculum was written. The children were to work in groups and they no longer concerned if the students got the right answer but were more concerned in how they arrived at the answer.

Seeing the Transfiguration of Jesus Today
Seeing the Transfiguration of Jesus Today
By Mary Rivers
When we entered middle school, our mother, your great grandmother took a job. She was in charge of the money room of the first Belk Dept. Store. She could have been as haughty as Judas Iscariot, but she was as humble as Jesus in her faith.

Same Sex Marriage and the Church, Is It Time for Change?
Same Sex Marriage and the Church, Is It Time for Change?
By Lorrie McNickle
We look the other way when it comes to a multitude of things: contraception, sex before marriage, gluttony for the material things in life, and lust for Earthly pleasures. What we should be striving for are the virtues of temperance, courage, prudence and purity. Yes, these virtues do seem rather boring and square, but they are anything but.

Day 6 Unexpected Evangelist
Day 6 Unexpected Evangelist
By Lori Conklin
This chapter in Rediscovering Jesus brings the reality of Jesus into a context I haven’t considered before, because I always think of Jesus as the son, the second person of the Trinity but not in quite the way that was described in this chapter.

The Eyes of a Convert
The Eyes of a Convert
By Janice Bostic
As a reasonably newly minted Catholic, I suppose one could accuse me of being in the honeymoon phase of my faith. Perhaps that’s true. There’s no zealot like a convert, right?

Out of the Mouths of Babes: "My Mommy said to say, ‘Thank you.'"
Out of the Mouths of Babes: "My Mommy said to say, ‘Thank you.'"
By Bobbie Ann Taylor
When our children were young and my husband was the only one earning a fulltime income, our kindergarten-aged daughter was eligible for a reduced lunch. To say we penny-pinched was no exaggeration. Every penny was accounted for. Period. If I bought myself a pack of gum (which I chewed a lot of then), I felt guilty.

Day 5 It's about the Sabbath
Day 5 It's about the Sabbath

Did I Forget To Pray Today?
Did I Forget To Pray Today?
By Michelle Nicholl
Did I Forget To Pray Today? Are you like me? Do you often find your life is so busy you forget to stop and pray? I know I do, but it's not because I find God to be any less important in my life, it's simply because He’s not nagging me or demanding my attention the way everything around me is; and I'm quite certain, that's your reason too. Right?

The Prophetic Voice of Humanae Vitae
The Prophetic Voice of Humanae Vitae
By Deacon Vernon Dobelmann
Watching the folks from NARAL flip out over the Doritos commercial during the Super Bowl is a sure sign that the pro-life message is being heard and that the scientific proof offered by an ultrasound machine is indisputable. Who could have known that a commercial for a snack would evoke such a visceral response? NARAL has accused Doritos of humanizing the fetus. What has become of our culture?
