Let us pray....
By De Maria
This is how Mrs. Melania Trump started her prayer on February 18, 2017, in Melbourne, Florida. No one noticed. On January 22, 2005, Ms. Melania Knauss was married to Mr. Donald Trump. As she walked up the aisle, a soprano sang, Ave Maria. And she wore on her person, her grandmother's rosary.

Leadership Series
By Mrs. May Ohaedoghasi

And so it behoves on the Church, in its service as the light to the society, to see how it can use the same leadership resources in man to stem the tide of decadence in morals that has bedeviled even the Christians who should light up the way.

Jesus, Religion and My Friends...
By Carlos Espinosa
An old and dear friend recently posted a video on Facebook of a rap poem that went viral five years ago, about hating religion but loving Jesus. Among its many claims, the poet suggests that Christ came to abolish the institutionalized practice of devotion to God because of corruption.

Getting Creative With Dead Bodies?
By Deacon Frederick Bartels
These days, people are coming up with all kinds of creative ideas. Some of these are morally good and praiseworthy. Others not so much. Still others have to make you wonder what people are thinking. Examples of late include getting creative with dead human bodies.

You Can't Define the Holy Spirit
By E.M. McCarthy
It’s the physical worldview that has things all wrong. We think we can live forever, we think we can do whatever we want (within reason), we think of our bodies’ needs first, and we think intelligence is the ticket for success. Perhaps this simplifies things, but the overall point is we live in a “show me” era.

The Trouble with Most of Us
By E.M. Wilson
I have been doing a lot of spiritual reading lately for groups I’m part of and I keep seeing the phrase “most of us.” Usually, when someone uses the phrase “most of us” in spiritual reading it is not because they are about to give most of us a compliment.

Remain In My Love
By Deacon Frederick Bartels
Uniting your human will to Christ brings happiness. This is an essential concept which the world has long rejected and which people find perplexing and difficult. Isn't my happiness found in complete human freedom? says the worldly post-modern autonomist. The false idea that following the commands of God is restrictive and unpleasurable is the widespread norm.

A Revert's Perspective
By Lisa Ponchak
It is no secret that my husband has struggled with deep regret over us leaving the Catholic Church and being away for 10 years. He has since worked through it and has forgiven himself, especially now that the Lord has restored him, and he is doing what he is passionate and gifted in.

By Greg Schlueter
Confession. Recently on the way back from a long trip I was spinning through the radio dial. Amidst a range of talk radio, jazz, classic, worship and hits...I did stop for two songs that in former days would have really captivated me: "For Those About to Rock" by ACDC, and "Foolin" by Def Leppard.

Do You Love God?
By Greg Schlueter

Mud Cookies: Imagine Feeding Your Children Some?
By Dr. Lin Weeks Wilder
"When there is no food for three or four days, the children cry from the pain. So I make them mud cookies to fill up their stomachs."
