Tristan and Isolde and the Three in One
By David Torkington
I found myself placed next to a high powered High Court Judge at a dinner party in one of the most exclusive clubs in London.

She asked me to explain to her the mystery of the Holy Trinity!

I Watched in Awe as the Priest Stepped into the Sandals of Christ
By Larry Peterson
Being Catholic has so many perks that non-Catholics will never understand. We have Adoration of the Blessed Sacrament, we have the Real Presence, we have Benediction, May processions, The Blessed Virgin Mary, canonized saints, Eucharistic miracles. What binds and holds all of this together is the priesthood, this great, unfathomable gift given to us by Christ, Himself.

Dear Faithful, Don't Pray To Santa Muerte: The Fake "Saint" Of Death
Dear Faithful, Don't Pray To Santa Muerte: The Fake "Saint" Of Death
By Kim-Thérèse Lee
Pictured similarly to our Blessed Mother, the Most Holy Virgin Mary, because of the veil, Santa Muerte is a mockery and the total opposite.

When the Journey Becomes Tiring, Carry On
By Trish Irvine
Over three years ago, I filled a hiking backpack, flew to Europe, and walked El Camino de Santiago. The first day on the Camino, though difficult, was exhilarating. We walked from the beautiful little town of Saint-Jean-Pied-de-Port in France, over the Pyrenees, and into Roncesvalles in Spain.

Are You a Self-Made Man who Worships His Maker?
Are You a Self-Made Man who Worships His Maker?
By David Torkington
Like most European Catholics I was born and brought up in the aftermath of the Renaissance, influenced by a spirituality that owed as much to the rise of humanism as to the Gospel of Jesus Christ. Naturally I thought that if I were to attain the perfection to which I aspired, it would be primarily the result of my own efforts

Stop Singing Those Songs!
By Lorrie McNickle
Have we become so egocentric in our worship that we’ve lost ourselves? When did the tides turn so that when we come for worship, we instead of turning to God in his glory and majesty we instead started turning to ourselves as the center and focus of everything?

Meet "Annie"; One of God's Great Champions
By Larry Peterson
There is a light that can never be looked upon because it is so brilliant you would be blinded forever. This light shines inside God’s chosen ones, many of whom are marginalized and disabled. There are many of us who can sense this light and embrace those who have it.

Mary of Egypt: The Journey from a Life of Sin to Redemption to Sainthood
By Larry Peterson
In his "Essay on Man", Alexander Pope penned three words that became immortalized; "Hope springs eternal". Nowhere do these words fit better than into the Catholic Church. For the Church of Christ is the home of forgiveness, mercy and, of course, redemption. Meet, Mary of Egypt.
