I did something this week that I am not proud of. I watched an entertainment news show. I was watching TV while making bread and that is what came on after the local news. This article is my way to make atonement for spending thirty-minutes mired in hedonism.
Fr. Basil Atwell Fr. John Paul Gardner “No matter how much money or time or effort on this work any of us spend, only our fidelity to God is seen and blessed by Him. Our true faith is measured by our trust in His effective grace. If we, who fight this good fight to pass…
I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me” (John 14:6). “For there is one God and one mediator between God and mankind, the man Christ Jesus” (1Timothy 2:5). Does the Bible confirm what Protestants have been telling us, that we should only go through…
Woman mocking Church at rally Fighting against a prolife ballot measure in North Dakota, Planned Parenthood and cronies are exercising their free choice to use dirty tactics. This week has been especially blatant. They don’t even have an office in North Dakota but they have poured $1.5 million (96% of total donations) to fund the opposition North…
If the devil is going to show up at some point in a movie, I’d rather not pay to see it. Yet, any exorcist will tell you that it’s the devil that you don’t see that is the most dangerous–the ones that tell you immorality is a good thing and if there’s a God, he…
Painting of Our Lady of Necaragua Somehow, living in the warp speed of our modern world, until just this week, I never heard of the Church-approved apparitions of Our Lady of Nicaragua, also known as Our Lady of Cuapa. The visions with messages for our time, took place from April 15…

Moral oblivion comes with a price tag.

Until May 30 of this year, Medicare denied requests for sex…
Jean Gaunt “Look at this,” Jean Gaunt said, showing the Sunday newspaper to her husband, Tom. Their hometown paper, the Indianapolis Star, featured a story about nine siblings who were available for adoption. It was Mother’s Day 1999, and the irony of the date did not…
This 9/11 story is of the hero—a Catholic and daily communicant– who tried to take back the plane from terrorist before it crashed in PA. It is shared through the eyes of his loving father and was originally published exclusively in “Amazing Grace for Families.” Looking down over the Omaha beaches of Normandy, France, my…
Marian High School I have a message for the LBGT community: I love you. You are a child of God. But because I love you, I want you to avoid making your life miserable. Therefore, if you are looking for a teaching job, don’t apply at a Catholic school. Catholic Schools have morality clauses not…
