Is That Man You?
Is That Man You?
By Greg Schlueter
Our surveys of events reveal a major challenge to men... and parishes. Among these audiences of highly motivated "church" men, most recognize the importance of living it out in their homes (90%+). The problem is that we equate knowledge and familiarity with actually living it out.

The Greatest Temptation…To Become Who We are NOT
The Greatest Temptation…To Become Who We are NOT
By Linda Kracht
When we learn who we are authentically designed by, we can better understand what we are designed for! And then we are also better equipped to rebuff any of Satan’s temptations that always have the intent of changing us into someone we are not! So, let’s start with the basics. Who made you and why and for what purpose?

Prodigal Sons and Daughters - Welcoming Home the Ravaged
Prodigal Sons and Daughters - Welcoming Home the Ravaged
By Leslie Shaw Klinger
No person I know is without sin. I have never met a perfect person. I have however met a lot of saints in the making; men and women determined to do their best one day at a time with their ultimate goal being the promise of eternity in heaven.

The Magisterium has Only Officially Interpreted Seven Verses!
The Magisterium has Only Officially Interpreted Seven Verses!
By Kevin Noles
I have read/heard this accusation a few times. Usually bandied about by the same person but there are a fringe few who say it as well. I find it rather sad because it shows an ignorance of what the function of the Magisterium is.

Cheap Grace vs Costly Grace
Cheap Grace vs Costly Grace
By Dr. Lin Weeks Wilder
They are terms I have never considered: cheap or costly grace. Phrased like you would a commodity. Exactly the phrase used by Martin Luther to describe the problems with the Roman Church. At least according to Dietrich Bonhoeffer in his book The Cost of Discipleship.

Those Little Things......
Those Little Things......
By Jean Smith
As I reflect on the upcoming Lenten Season during this “Year of Mercy”, I ponder this question, “Can Lent be a yearly second chance?” Each year, Lent gives us six weeks to reflect on our lives, to see if we are in line with the teaching of the Catholic Church and what God desires of us.

Do You Choose Door No. 1 or Door No. 2?
Do You Choose Door No. 1 or Door No. 2?
By Bill Dunn
Imagine there is a new game show on daytime TV. A contestant is selected at random from the studio audience. The person comes up on stage, and here is how the game is played: the person must choose either Door No. 1 or Door No. 2. Behind Door No. 1 there are two possible options: either a prize of one million dollars or nothing. Behind Door No. 2 there also are two possible options

Fear of God at foot of the Mountain
Fear of God at foot of the Mountain
By Eric Wojtkun
Do not let fear of God make you tremble like a child who touched the cookie jar, or the Israelites at the foot of Mount Sinai. Such fear keeps you from internalizing a healthy Fear of God. We should dread disappointing both God and ourselves by not keeping his law close to our hearts, and expressing it in our every thought and deed.

Judge, we all do it! {Day 16}
By Lori Conklin
Is it wrong to judge others? Absolutely. But the topic of judging is, for me, looking at the shades of grey.

The Bucket List
The Bucket List
By Michelle Watkins
The concept of the 'bucket list' has always eluded me. For one, it strikes me as somewhat morbid to make an official list of things to accomplish prior to one's 'kicking the bucket'. And too, I always wonder what one does if they've achieved the list and still are quite alive. Do they create another list?

The Harvest of Salvation
The Harvest of Salvation
By Eric Wojtkun
Many modern Catholic theologians, and clergy, assert the world’s population has a reasonable assumption of reaching heaven. This theological viewpoint by nature runs over quite quickly into how they interact with the world through preaching, parish life and politics.

The Windows of our Soul {Day 14}
By Lori Conklin
Today’s reflection is about monitoring want we see. How can we monitor what we see as images appear rapidly and without warning?

"The Witch": A (Theological) Movie Review
By Kathleen Troost-Cramer
First off, full disclosure: I love horror movies. No, no, not slasher films with nothing but blood, guts, and profanity. Yuck. Those are just gross. I also simply don’t find them scary at all.

Battle Prayer for Married Couples
Battle Prayer for Married Couples
By Greg Schlueter
There are a good number of married couples under attack right now. Of course they are. They have the audacity to live their call, to make God who is Love known. The Enemy doesn't like that. He hates Love. He hates God. He hates us. He whispers lies. He twists. He preys upon weakness.

Helping Hand
Helping Hand
By Fr. Jude M. Serfino
Lord, you opened your hand to all of us and we nailed you on the cross when we sin or disobey you. Make our hands ready to help. Remove the painful memories which our hand might have done.

Beauty, Sex, and the "Market"
Beauty, Sex, and the "Market"
By Jennifer Edwards
So this week, Sports Illustrated patted itself on the back for featuring a plus size model on its front cover. Ashley Graham is without a doubt, stunning. And yes, those of us on the “curvalicious” end of the spectrum are silently cheering.

Learning about Faith from the Shadows
Learning about Faith from the Shadows
By Eric Wojtkun
Shadows may give us a little insight into the theological virtue of faith. In a shadow we have evidence of things unseen. Scientists use the observation of a shadow on the moon during an eclipse to begin a search for the substantive event causing the eclipse.
