Hopefully, you can take a break from all the election related news and meditate on this Sunday’s Gospel. It’s a long one so I’m just pasting the part I want to focus on in this post. “Before all this happens, however, they will seize and persecute you, they will hand you over to the synagogues […]

This year my New Year’s resolution was to read the Catechism of the Catholic Church. I’m happy to report that I finished part one which explains Church doctrine by walking through the Creed. It looks like reading the Catechism is going to be a two year project given that it’s already June and I’ve only finished the first

You shall obtain all you ask of me by recitation of the Rosary. Mary‘s 11th rosary promise is one of my favorites probably because it is so easily misunderstood (thus providing me with lots to write about). What does Mary mean when she says you will obtain all that you ask through the rosary? I’m

The Gospel for Sunday, March 6, 2011 is from Matthew 4:1-11. In this Gospel, Jesus fasted and prayed in the desert for 40 days before rejecting Satan’s temptations. Tired, hungry, and physically weak Jesus had the strength to reject evil. Jesus shows this same spiritual endurance during His Passion, especially in the scourging at the

As Fat Tuesday winds down we now turn our focus towards Lent. If you are looking to do something special this Lenten Season, you might want to try praying a novena. This is a prayer for a specific devotion you say for nine days. You pray novenas for specific causes or intentions. One of my
I just completed reading C.S. Lewis’ The Screwtape Letters. The book is divided into several letters from a senior devil, Screwtape, to a junior devil, Wormwood, who is working on bringing a man’s soul under the influence of Satan.
