Meatless Fridays
Most Catholics abstain from meat on the Fridays of Lent, but not all Catholics are sure about what the Church asks of the faithful on every other Friday of the year.
Guilt And Shame
Guilt and shame, in the proper context, may actually be something that we can use to motivate and better ourselves as we strive to live in right relationship to God.
On Holy Ground
The story of the burning bush in Sacred Scripture teaches us about the importance of holy ground. Perhaps we could do with an increase of reverence in our own faith life in the Church.
The Faithfulness Of God
If only we could learn to be as faithful to God and God is to us. Even our father in faith, Abraham, had difficulty in putting his faith totally in God and a promise that Sarah would conceive a child.
Mens Groups
It seems that men are under constant spiritual attack these days. Catholic speaker John Edwards from Just A Guy In The Pew joins us again to talk about the importance of men gathering in small groups to support each other in their daily walk.
Cursed Or Blessed
The Old Testament speaks of being cursed or blessed. But, when Jesus Himself delineates between those who are blessed and those who suffer woes, we find that what the world views as a curse or woe, is actually a blessing.
I Am Unworthy
In the story of the calling of Peter, we might see our own challenge to do what we have been called by the Lord to do. Many of us do not feel holy enough, or qualified enough. And yet, the Lord calls us anyway.
Righteous Judgment
When King David is rebuked by the prophet Nathan for having the husband of Bathsheba sent to his death so the King himself could be with her, we learn much about casting judgment on others without seeing our own guilt.
