Catholic Church

By Terence P. Jeffrey, CNSNews - As Pope Benedict XVI said on many occasions, if there is only your truth and my truth and neither one of us recognizes something as the truth, what happens when our truths collide? We have no standard of judgment by which to settle the argument. So either you impose your power on me, or I impose my power on you. That is the dictatorship of relativism.

By Fr. Richard Heilman, Roman Catholic Man - Only one thing is important — eternal salvation. Only one thing, therefore, is to be feared–sin? Sin is the result of ignorance, weakness, and indifference The Holy Spirit is the Spirit of Light, of Strength, and of Love. With His sevenfold gifts He enlightens the mind, strengthens the will, and inflames the heart with love of God. To ensure our salvation we ought to invoke the Divine Spirit daily, for “The Spirit helpeth our infirmity. We know not what we should pray for as we ought. But the Spirit Himself asketh for us.”

Fr. Mike Schmitz, Ascension Presents - If we put on a mask when we come to God in prayer, how can he love that fake version of us? In this week’s video from Fr. Mike, he challenges you to come before God as your true and genuine self. The love you will encounter by doing this one simple act, no matter how vulnerable it may make you feel, will be astounding.
