Politics, Principalities and Powers
By Greg Schlueter
I voted Trump. I do not wave a flag for Trump. Trump is flawed. As are we. Trump has to deal with very imperfect circumstances. As do we. We recognize and accept that perfection is the realm of sainthood; politics, the realm of the greatest good possible. We are not on team conservative. We're not on team liberal. We're on team humanity.

Jesus, the New Adam, converted the OT Pharisee, Paul, and Mary, the New Eve, will convert the NT Pharisees, the Christian Right
By Scott Pauline
Why is there the right and left? Is it arbitrary? No. There are two sides to a coin because there are two faculties of soul: the intellect [the head] and the will [the heart]. One extreme, the right, is to have a head but not a heart. Which is another way of saying, your head is hard, but your heart is hard also. These are the Pharisees.

The Ten Commandments Partitioned: Protestant or Catholic Way? Daniel 7 will Help
By Scott Pauline
In Daniel 7, I always wondered the apocalyptic meaning of the ten horns of the fourth beast. Three of them are uprooted and in their place comes up the little horn. It is greater than his other fellows and utters proud boasts and blasphemies, with eyes like a man and a mouth like a man, persecuting the Holy Ones, and thinking to change the "feast days and the Law".

By Rob Agnelli
Last May, Pope Francis addressed 9,000 members of Doctors with Africa, a group that works to bring quality healthcare to African populations.

Humility's Forgotten Gem: Confidence
By James Berkon
Humility. Is there any other word that is like kryptonite to the soul? I do not know about you, but if there is one virtue I avoid talking about or exemplifying, it has to be humility. No, I do not run around telling the world how great I am. On the same token, I do not consider a humble attitude to be my strong suit.

Do you have any loved ones who are far from home? Quite often we are separated from the people we love because of jobs or school or military service. When people are separated, they can share their thoughts via letters and email, and they can make phone calls and speak to one another.

The Transfiguration Makes Us Ask: Who Is Jesus?
By Bill Dunn
This week’s gospel reading at Mass is the Transfiguration of Jesus. Matthew’s version of this spectacular event highlights the Transfiguration’s similarities with the Exodus account of God giving the Law to Moses on Mount Sinai. Both events occurred on a mountain; the face of God’s servant became radiant; a cloud represented God’s presence; and the divine voice spoke from the cloud.

The Temptation To Compare: A Lie From The Beginning
By Elizabeth Hoyle
Maybe it’s just me, but it seems like comparison is a huge temptation these days. I know it is for me. By comparison, I’m talking about the tendency to look at someone else’s life or gifts and feel sad, upset, or even to fall into despair that you do not have the same kinds of gifts or talents that that someone has.
