Morning Breakfast Time
Morning Breakfast Time
By Elizabeth Thomas
Every morning we come to the table, ---to feast off the Word of God. Or at least we should. We know how essential it is to eat food to have the ability to function the rest of the day. More important is the consumption of that Spiritual Food or the Word of God to sustain us through all that will come into our lives each day.

Questions Answered: Mary, Mother of God and Queen of Heaven
Questions Answered: Mary, Mother of God and Queen of Heaven
By Kevin Noles
Protestants typically have a difficult time with the titles of Mother of God and Queen of Heaven in reference to Mary. Each one I have spoken to seems to want to qualify the terms, to a certain degree this has merit, but they come off sounding accusatory towards Catholics.

By Carlos Espinosa

Get The Facts!
Get The Facts!
By Lorrie McNickle
I recently had an article post on this website. One of the comments it elicited I found particularly interesting, not because of the content, but because this particular poster didn’t even get past the third paragraph before, in her own words “she had to stop”. Then she felt compelled to emotionally respond with her opinion, before she even read the whole piece.

On Being a Pilgrim: Part Two, Traveling with Kids
On Being a Pilgrim: Part Two, Traveling with Kids
By The Prayerful Pilgrim
God has blessed us with five little ones with whom we make our travels. Ultimately, much of my desire to go on pilgrimage is to instill this practice in them. Sometimes our journey is specific to a holy place and sometimes it happens along another journey. Recognizing that God is with you wherever you roam is the most important lesson.

On Being a Pilgrim: Part One, First Steps
On Being a Pilgrim: Part One, First Steps
By The Prayerful Pilgrim
A pilgrim can mean different things to different people. You can hop on one of the big, package pilgrimage tours that most dioceses offer and although I’ve never been on one, I’m certain you will be better for having gone. Perhaps, like us, your current situation won’t allow you to partake in such endeavors.

We didn't go
We didn't go
By The Prayerful Pilgrim
During the March for Life in Washington, D.C., my family, like all the years we've been a family, was absent. I can honestly say I've never felt called to go, and for us at this moment, it's the right decision. If and when the time comes, we will certainly join with the thousands of other pilgrims and raise our voices in this yearly tribute.

The Resolution to end all Resolutions
The Resolution to end all Resolutions
By David Torkington
A hermit I know used to say, “When you stop falling you will be in heaven, but when you stop getting up, you will be in hell.” The fact of the matter is, we all fall. The secret of spiritual growth is how long we take to get up again. St Francis of Assisi used to say that the difference between a saint and a sinner is not that the saint does not fall, but the speed with which the saint gets up ag
