Quid est Veritas?
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.

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.

What to do in a World filled with Chaos
What to do in a World filled with Chaos
By Susan Skinner
The world seems chaotic these days. Hate seems to permeate the air. Social media has enabled us to dehumanize. It reminds me of road rage. We think because we can’t see the person in the car, they are not human, we curse and gesture at them, having no idea of the life in the car.

Garbage In Garbage Out
Garbage In Garbage Out
By Anthony Stine

Sixty years and counting
Sixty years and counting
By Tess Shore
Springtime is a big deal for celebrations and transitions. Priests get ordained, change parishes or celebrate years of service. Springtime also is full of graduations and the tons of parties that go with them. In my own Archdiocese, it seems as if priests are always moving.

Why Does God Permit Evil?
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.

Death and Dying
Death and Dying
By Mary Rivers
Each of us has known the death of someone close to us; sometimes death is unexpected, sometimes it is after the passion of suffering. Always death of someone makes us think of our own mortality; our thoughts vary with our relationship to Jesus.

Showing Gratitude for the Ultimate Gift
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?
