Growing up in a family with two kids, I was both delighted and challenged by my wife’s 10 siblings.

Even though I didn’t harbor a single doubt or speck of concern regarding our newly formed marriage, I still needed to say “yes” again.

Let’s ask our elders about their experiences and invite our children to embrace God’s invitation to live in his grand narrative.

Continue to strengthen your relationship with Jesus, but invite your children into that process.

Human beings have a remarkable capacity to desire two competing things at the same time and vacillate between decisions and actions.

The grace of the sacrament strengthens us and is a powerful gift from our Lord.

Isn’t it amazing how much the Father loves us? He not only sent Jesus to save us, but he also revealed to us the truth of our impending judgment.

Go engage in the evangelistic work of Christ by getting to know people and then lovingly introducing them to your best friend, Jesus Christ.

Jesus is alive! But do we recognize him?

Be holy in thought and word. What would we look and sound like if we gave up hurtful language (for good)?

We are not called to periodic obedience, but to a daily and often hidden consent to whatever God asks of us.

What would it look like if we expected Jesus to speak to us through each day, even in the most mundane and ordinary moments?

I’ve been noticing a verbal trend characterized by the increased usage of “honestly, truthfully or actually.” 

To give as God gives includes our time, talent, treasure and, ultimately, our very selves.

Isn’t it amazing how easily we human beings can take things for granted?

Ordinary time helps us appreciate and value extraordinary moments, and it’s no different in our lives as liturgical Catholics.

Can you imagine the disciples’ emotions as they watched Jesus ascend into heaven?

The most profound claim of Christianity is that Jesus died, was sealed in a grave and three days later, was no longer there.

This Lent is a God-given opportunity to start, continue or restart the transformation Jesus desires for us.

Why is the good news of a viral video so easy to share while the Good News of Jesus Christ so difficult?

The term “missionary disciple” has been used to motivate Catholics to consistently live out our common evangelistic responsibility.

I’ll never forget the conversation where my dad revealed to me the difference between a nice guy and a good man.

Clearly, our culture is fascinated with the spiritual realm and the beings that inhabit it.

There’s something about Peter’s journey of faith and transformation that deeply resonates with me.

Ask the Lord to show you the logs in your life and, if you’re tempted to focus on someone else’s speck, just give them to Jesus instead.
