Notice: Function _load_textdomain_just_in_time was called incorrectly. Translation loading for the mfn-opts domain was triggered too early. This is usually an indicator for some code in the plugin or theme running too early. Translations should be loaded at the init action or later. Please see Debugging in WordPress for more information.

Have you ever felt like you’re just not fitting in at your parish?
Perhaps you’ve felt the temptation to be a cookie-cutter Catholic, one who does all the Catholic things that other Catholics are doing because they think … well … that’s what makes us Catholic.
But comparison is kind of like the cousin of envy, Fr. Mike says.
If we only express our faith in certain ways because that’s what other believers around us are doing, we should re-examine our relationship with Christ. After all, he is the only one we should pattern our life after.
