So You're a "Person of Faith" and "PRO-Choice"? Really? Which Faith?
So You're a "Person of Faith" and "PRO-Choice"? Really? Which Faith?
By Frank Lloyd
With the forty-first Anniversary of the “Roe vs. Wade” decision almost upon us, I am hoping someone might provide an answer to and clear up a question I’ve had for many years now. I often hear many of those who claim to be “people of Faith”, including some people that I deeply care for, say that they are “Pro-choice” and make declarations such as, “Although I’m against it, I would never IMPOSE

Love Came Down
Love Came Down
By Tom Ponchak
It is said that when the Apostle John was living in Ephesus in his old age he would often address the church there with the same simple exhortation, “My little children, love one another.” The elders of the community, tired of hearing the same repeated message, would press John to share with the church some great insight about Jesus or being a disciple.

Pope Francis Addresses Vatican Curia
By Frank J. Maduri
Pope Francis addressed the Vatican Curia warning them against vainglory and feeling superior to others. In what the Pontiff termed a “disease of feeling immortal” is dangerous because as he explained it often leads to a loss of compassion.

Is Christ My King?
Is Christ My King?
By Judy Landrieu Klein
“Jesus is the Lord of my life.” That was a common statement in the evangelical Christian church I attended 25 years ago, before I returned to the Catholic Church in 1988. Meditating on the Feast of Christ the King, I wondered why Catholics don’t use that kind of language more often when we describe our relationship with Christ.

Inviting Christ to Be King of Our Hearts

We Christians are the Most Persecuted People on the Planet
We Christians are the Most Persecuted People on the Planet
By Larry Peterson
The persecution of our brother and sister Catholic/Christians continues unabated all over the world. In the Middle East, North Africa and Asia Minor, thousands upon thousands of our brothers and sisters in faith have been summarily tortured, raped, beheaded, hanged, burned, shot and even buried alive simply because they love Jesus Christ.

Pope Francis: Infallibility Doesn't Make Him Right
Pope Francis: Infallibility Doesn't Make Him Right
By David Vermont
When the Bishops returned from the Synod it was clear that rather than building consensus the meeting revealed deep divisions among them on some issues of Catholic social teaching. Cardinal Burke took the extraordinary step of questioning the leadership of Pope Francis and called the Church a “rudderless ship” under him.

Scientific Hands of God.
Scientific Hands of God.
By Susan Charest
Last week I read Pope Francis comment of how the Big Band theory and evolution does not prove that God isn’t our Creator. He eloquently said, "The Big Bang, which today is held as the beginning of the world, does not contradict the intervention of the divine creator, but requires it.” I couldn’t agree more.

Reading God
Reading God
By John Rieping
There is an ancient practice of prayer known as "lectio divina," a phrase that means "reading God" or "divine reading." It traditionally involves reading the Bible slowly, with imagination and thought. We tend to read the Bible like we drive on the freeway, eager for our destination. But lectio divina requires reading like a car trapped in rush hour traffic -- stop and go.

Zig Zagging With Pope Francis
By David Vermont
Did you hear what Pope Francis said about marriage over the weekend? When you think he is going to zig, he zags. Two weeks ago the media was reporting with breathless anticipation that the Synod of Bishops on the family was on the cusp of changing the Catholic teaching on marriage to allow for same sex unions. But did you hear what Pope Francis said about marriage over the weekend?

RE: The Synod: The Catholic Church is the "Bride" of Christ and the Holy Spirit has Her Back; NO Problem
RE: The Synod: The Catholic Church is the "Bride" of Christ and the Holy Spirit has Her Back; NO Problem
By Larry Peterson
It is quite apparent to me that the 2014 Vatican Synod on the Family has been hijacked by the mainstream media and press. (Maybe we should call it the Secular Media Synod). Reports of Synod actions are flying out from the keyboards about all sorts of things, and none of these keyboards are privy to what any of the final Synod results will say.

The Synod has Opened: Hello Media!! It is all about FAMILY.
The Synod has Opened: Hello Media!! It is all about FAMILY.
By Larry Peterson
The secular media (print & broadcast) has been salivating over the Synod of Bishops that has officially opened in Rome. They have been pounding the drum about the birth of a NEW church filled with the progressiveness of the "modern, secular world". They have ignored the reason this Synod has actually been called together. HELLO media, the Synod is about Family.

Islamic armies ranged along the coasts of Africa, the Middle and Near East, toppling established powers, yearning “to bring all Europe within the dar al-Islam, the ‘House of Submission’ — submissive to the sharia law. Europe, as the land of the infidels, was the dar al-Harb, the ‘House of War’.
