Spotlight, Mercy, and the Future of the Priesthood
By Adam Gonzalez
As a general rule, I always say that in order to truly understand a movie, I should see it twice. Yet, after seeing Spotlight, I never thought I would watch it again; it was hard enough the first time. But, when my Mom mentioned she wanted to see it, I told her I would go with her, almost without hesitation. Holy Spirit?

Thou Shall Not Hate.
By Troy Kroening
The Ten Commandments are often looked upon negatively because they tell us what not to do. The sound like restrictions on our freedom. Everything has a price, though. To love, you must give up hate. To hate, you must give up love. To read this, you must give me $2.

The Mayor, Morality and Pontius Pilate...
By Carlos Espinosa
We recently had a local mayor at our station, who shared his perspectives on what it's like to govern a large and complex government body and some of the challenges he faces in doing so.

If God is Love...
By Daniel R Ball
I was thinking about the concept of love and about the concept of grace. And it occurred to me that the two are inseparable. Actually, it may not be possible to love without grace. Grace is the infusing of God's love into our lives and our actions, and it is culminated in our acceptance and application of that love. Love is grafted and woven into our nature as human beings.

Inconceivable! The Ongoing Dissolution of the Christian Faith
By Adam Crawford
Only 500 years ago it would have been absolutely inconceivable to think of any individual Christian simply going out and creating their own church. Christ had already founded a Church on, and through, His apostles. This Church was called by His name - Christian - and it was known as the Church Catholic, i.e. the Christian Church universal.

Islam, Its Place in Salvation History, and its Theological Nature
By Scott Pauline
What one could say is that the proper place of Islam in salvation history is as the religion that is completely anti-Trinitarian and anti-Christological while yet retaining the shell of the Gospel. When you follow these implications, it works out all the deficiencies of the religion.

Echoing Switchfoot
By Tony Crescio
Many of us who were coming of age in the early 2000’s remember the alternative rock band from San Diego, Switchfoot. Though having a definite underlying Christian message to share, the band was able to cross-over into the mainstream with hits like Meant to Live and Dare you to Move among others.

Quid est Veritas?
By Joseph Michael
St. Augustine once alluded to the idea that if you think you can comprehend God, then it isn’t God that you comprehend. God is the Creator; we are his creation. As such, it is not possible for us to fully comprehend our Creator in His entirety.

The Whore of Babylon as Blasphemous, Materialistic Grandeur
By Scott Pauline
For a time, the godless society prospers. But, eventually, the immorality and wickedness catch up with it. When this happens, the power of the “anti-Decalogue”, manifesting the true nature of sin, tears down the materialistic society through the intrinsic consequences of moral corruption, opens its eyes to its wrongdoing, and leads to its conversion.

For All Those Who Mourn... Meditations on Mercy
By Nancy Marie Murray
There is nothing that breaks a parent’s heart like the death of a child. In both readings (1 Kgs 17:17-24; Lk 7:11-17) for June 5th, the 10th Sunday in Ordinary Time, the Lord takes compassion on a brokenhearted mother and restores her child to life. God hears the prayers of those who mourn;

What Can a relationship with Jesus Do?
By Kaity Jones
How important is a relationship with Christ? In my opinion extremely. If you asked almost anyone they would agree with that, but what does it mean to be in a relationship with Christ? I have found it means you pursue Him as He pursues you or you allow Him to pursue you.

Garbage In Garbage Out
By Anthony Stine
I have a hard time watching television these days. I don't know if you do or not but when I watch TV it seems that the bulk of what's available is a combination of self worship, pornography, and moral indifference. It doesn't help that much of broadcast television is generally poorly written fare, with the best writing reserved for cable

Why Does God Permit Evil?
By Christopher McCarthy
The problem of evil is one which has proven itself a stumbling block to the faith of many Christians in both ancient and contemporary times. One cannot help, in looking out upon the various ills that continually beset humanity, but to question whether the Christian God is in fact “good” at all, at least in the moral sense of the word.

Who Do the Crowds Say That I Am?
By Bill Dunn
Opinion polls and surveys are very popular. It seems our entire society is being run by opinion polls these days. Most politicians check survey results each morning to discover what values they believe in. Some won’t even choose which tie to wear (or which pantsuit) until they get the latest report on popular colors.

Showing Gratitude for the Ultimate Gift
By Linda Kracht
All human persons share one ‘characteristic’ in common; regardless of ethnicity, country of origin, age, political party or spiritual or moral values and beliefs. What is that one thing? Take a guess. If you guessed that we are each a gift [freely bestowed upon our parents, siblings, and even fellow citizens] you have guessed correctly.

5 Minute Gospel; God Loves You
By Charlie Johnston
"For God so loved the world that he gave his only-begotten Son, that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life." (John 3:16) This is probably the most famous verse from the Bible, and rightfully so, it is known by both believers and non-believers alike. In this one verse we see what could be called the sum total of the Gospel; that God loves us enough to die for us.
