An Integration of Church and State
An Integration of Church and State
By Adam Crawford
I don't often post political pieces. In fact, this may be a first. But as I sit at my desk writing this, I find myself deeply troubled by our current state of affairs. In our nation, the term, separation of Church and state, has been aggressively employed in an effort to remove any influence of religion or faith from the public sphere.

The Hidden Power of the Hail mary Part 2
By James Berkon
How does Our Lady tie into this? Simple, Mary is the reason Satan fell from heaven. Satan, was once called Lucifer, the Guardian of Light. He was the greatest of all God’s creation outside the Holy Trinity.

On Saint Benedict's Ladder
On Saint Benedict's Ladder
By Catherine M. J. Mary Evans
Some of my education is business equivalent over long careers. This causes a need for me to stick up for myself. I suppose this may come across as: brave, selfish, defiant, impatient, illogical, haughty at best, over confident, bossy, bold, funny, flippant and in your face. These might be true at times, as everyone has their moments.

Where (and What) Is Your Treasure?
Where (and What) Is Your Treasure?
By Bill Dunn
The Bible is an incredible book. After all, it is no less than God’s detailed communication—His heartfelt love letter—to His precious creation, mankind.

Rejections and Disappointments are Part of the Training Regimen in God's Gym….
By David R. Myers
I can remember, when I was a boy, waiting to be chosen on a team when in the neighborhood, or schoolyard, we played some kind of a team game. I was not a particularly gifted athlete, and so I was rarely chosen in the top few. I remember how that felt.

The Hidden Power of the Hail Mary Part 1
By James Berkon
As many of you know, when getting behind the wheel, whether it be to get to work, school, run errands or joyride (I do that a little too often!) your mind gets flooded with numerous thoughts.

A Timely Reminder for the Laity: Catholic Teaching on Love, Sexuality, and Our Common Call to Chastity
A Timely Reminder for the Laity: Catholic Teaching on Love, Sexuality, and Our Common Call to Chastity
By Justin McClain
In case you have not been around since the mid-1960s, here is the news: our culture talks a lot about sex. One can easily assert that it is sexually saturated. If you have difficulty fathoming this, speak to parents who are trying to raise their children in a society that hardly reinforces modesty or other displays of morality that were once taken for granted.

Endurance
Endurance
By Madeline Mauro
What is Jesus showing us? What is it that St. Paul talks about? What is endurance? The dictionary definition is “the fact or power of enduring an unpleasant or difficult process or situation without giving way.”

I identify as . . .
I identify as . . .
By Tony Jesse
There is an ancient philosophical position that goes by the name of voluntarism, which is to say, the systematic favoring of the will over the intellect; where desire trumps truth. Broken down simply what voluntarism means is that what a person wants to be true becomes what is actually true. Of course, what I want to be true and what is true are two very different questions.

Ride Out And Meet Them
Ride Out And Meet Them
By Courtney Holbrook
These last few months have been horrible and filled with violence around the world. From police shootings to police being shot… from multiple airport attacks… the Orlando shootings… the truck plowing through people in Nice… even the uncertainty of the military coup in Turkey…. And these are only of the ones we know of; many similar attacks go unreported in mainstream media.

You'll Never Get to Enjoy the View, Until You Make the Climb
You'll Never Get to Enjoy the View, Until You Make the Climb
By Teresa Hurst
We have the extreme good fortune to live in Michigan and, therefore, are surrounded by the Great Lakes. I have had an ongoing love affair with these incredible bodies of fresh water since my early days of the family cottage down the road from Lake Huron. There are countless, treasured memories of laughing, splashing, sitting, and skipping along the sandy shores of endless blue.

Catholicism and Race Relations: Nearly Two-Thousand Years of Wisdom, Experience, and Reconciliation

This past weekend, I accompanied my father, Charles Earl McClain, Sr., from my native Prince George’s County, Maryland, to his native Durham, North Carolina, so that he could attend the weekend festivities for the sixty-second reunion of the Hillside High School Class of 1954.

What Does Everyday Mercy Look Like?
What Does Everyday Mercy Look Like?
By Nina Rizzo
“May I take your order?” asks our server. We hadn’t looked at our menus yet and asked for more time. “I’m sorry, so sorry!” she says rushing away. We’re a little confused by her reaction, but we continue talking about evangelization programs and activities we can "do" in this Year of Mercy that would bring people to experience the love of Christ.

Who Wrote the Bible, God or Man?
Who Wrote the Bible, God or Man?
By Bill Dunn
All Christians must answer a very important question: “Is the Bible God’s word to mankind, or is it mankind’s word about God?”

The Fall of the Rainbow
The Fall of the Rainbow
By Carleigh Lutz
I was scrolling through Facebook the other day, rather mindlessly I’ll admit, and something jolted me into awareness of what I was doing. A rainbow of colors in a parade flashed in a short clip of a video. Curious of what this could be and thinking of the bright colors that are so attractive to the eye,

(not so) Tongue Tied
(not so) Tongue Tied
By Janice Bostic
If we put bits into the mouths of horses to make them obey us, we also guide their whole bodies. It is the same with ships: even though they are so large and driven by fierce winds, they are steered by a very small rudder wherever the pilot's inclination wishes. In the same way the tongue is a small member and yet has great pretensions.
