Holy Doors Of Mercy
By Kate Eschbach
The Chapel of the Holy Cross in Sedona is a pilgrimage site for a Holy Door during this Jubilee Year of Mercy. When I found out there was a Holy Door in Sedona, I wanted to be sure we each walked through the door and fully understood what it meant.

Pope St. Eusebius, Defender Of Discipline
By Debra Booton McCoy
Pope Eusebius reigned for four months during the year 309 or 310. He should not be confused with other Saints Eusebius nor with Eusebius of Caesaria who wrote the great book Ecclesiastical History, shortly after this pope died.

Catholicism and Race Relations: Nearly Two-Thousand Years of Wisdom, Experience, and Reconciliation
By Justin McClain
This past weekend, I accompanied my father, Charles Earl McClain, Sr., from my native Prince George’s County, Maryland, to his native Durham, North Carolina, so that he could attend the weekend festivities for the sixty-second reunion of the Hillside High School Class of 1954.

To Change A World
By Carleigh Lutz
We are called to be soldiers for Christ. We are called to defend life, love, and our faith. Saints did not become saints by taking the easy road; they became saints by taking the road far less traveled – the road of discomfort, of being shunned, of being unhappy in the flesh and joyful in the spirit. We can’t afford to sit back any longer. We are being stirred to act.

How to Train Your Dragon II: Heroic Masculinity and the Holy Family
By Rose Canavan
Many people would argue that there is a crisis of masculinity in film today. That there are no longer any strong father figures in movies and that masculinity is contorted to mean only violence and control. The fatherless society that we live in certainly has seeped its way into mainstream media, but I can think of a few shining examples that counteract this inauthentic trend.

Catholics: Lay off the Pope
By Joe Klaas
I don't think I'm making headlines by saying that Pope Francis has a way of getting people talking pretty much every time he opens his mouth. Unfortunately, a lot of that talk has been unfavorable, and it's a shame.

Time to Offer an Apology Over Judgement
By Charles Johnston
Catholics are the foundation of the Church and we should be able to set the example for others to live by. We do not occupy the throne of judgment nor should we pass it from the pews. We are in need of healing and forgiveness not judgment or condemnation.

Pope Francis and Eliminating Waste in Your Endowment or Retirement Account
By Bill Ulivieri
A little over 1 year ago Pope Francis addressed “every person living on this planet” with his encyclical “Laudato Si”; Praise be to you, my Lord. Many refer to it as an encyclical on the environment, but it is so much more than that! The Pope explained that extreme consumerism, materialism, and poverty are not really economic problems, but rather ethical and spiritual ones.

Pope Saint Marcellus, Martyr
By Debra Booton McCoy
The Bishop of Rome was dead in 304. Diocletian's persecution was in full force. Meeting places were confiscated as well as some of the burial grounds. People were in fear of being caught at Mass or other services and the presbyters were in hiding when not needed.

Your actions speak louder than your words. - Jesus
By Troy Kroening
“Not everyone who says to me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ will enter the kingdom of heaven, but only the one who does the will of my Father in heaven.” – [Matthew 7:21] Jesus listens to us, our actions and our words. If our actions do not match our words, then we are hypocrites. I am hypocrite. My actions do not always match my words. But with God’s help, I keep trying to do better.

Catholic Social Teaching Demystified
By Christopher McCarthy
What this discussion is intended to point us toward are the principles of Catholic social doctrine by which we may establish a political and economic platform in conformity with Catholic teaching.

Sex and the Single Pope
By David Kamioner
Let’s first off say it’s rather uncomfortable to talk or hear about sex from anybody you respect, like your parents, a teacher, and especially a priest. Not that it isn’t in a priest’s duty to talk about temptations of the flesh. In fact, as certain sins arise from the subject it can’t be avoided.

Control
By Lucas Sauls
I have to admit, I got caught up in my electronics, wanting time by myself, and just wanted to run and hide away for a while. I don’t know why that is, because I always regret that feeling after the fact. I regret what I have missed by wanting to do things on my own. That selfishness gets in the way of the moments that really mean something to me.

Pope Saint Marcellinus, Builder Of The Early Church
By Debra Booton McCoy
It was a time of peace throughout most of the Empire. Diocletian had become emperor in 284. His policies stabilized the empire and put an end to the Crisis of the Third Century. He reorganized the government structure, established a policy of inaction towards various religions and tried to handle the inflation problem.

Intro to the Eastern Catholic Churches Part IV: The Chaldean Rite
By Nicholas LaBanca
By now, many of us have come to realize that the liturgical traditions of the Catholic Church are rich and numerous. Following an introduction on all 23 of the Eastern Catholic Churches, we’ve already delved into the Armenian and Alexandrian Rites of the Catholic Church. Today, we’ll take a look at the East Syrian (or Chaldean) Rite, which houses two more sui iuris (that is, particular) Churches.

Pope Francis--The Foremost Ambassador of Humility
By Larry Peterson
Pope Francis, without trying and by just being who God made him to be, wears this mantle of humility without fanfare, showmanship, pretentiousness or anything that might be self-serving in any manner.

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.
