"Whoever eats my flesh and drinks my blood has eternal life." – John 6:54

For some, the Catholic Church’s teaching on the Eucharist is hard to believe and sometimes a stumbling block. We must recall that it was when Jesus taught it too! In the Bread of Life discourse in John 6, we find the only time Jesus had disciples leave Him. “As a result of this, many [of] his dis... (www.catholic365.com)

With all of this chaos and suffering in our world, what can I do? I am only one person.

George Floyd has died tragically. COVID-19 is a worldwide pandemic killing thousands. And yet, abortion is still killing the most innocent of us, even more than COVID-19. Our world is suffering. Well, of course it is. We did not need COVID-19 or the tragic death of George Floyd to know that, bu... (www.catholic365.com)

The Art of Merciful Firmness

The world tells you to be harsh. The Bible tells you to be merciful. Which do you follow? I wrestled with this for some time. I'm a middle manager in a corporate environment and am sometimes faced with the situation of: Do I be merciful or do I be hard on this person?... (www.catholic365.com)

Prayer is needed! It always has been, but we have let it slip for too long.

Prayer itself is a spiritual battle. “Oh come on, a spiritual battle?” Yes. If we realize that there is a God and there is a Devil, then there is a battle. Obviously, not a physical one, though it can spill into the physical, especially in us who are spiritual and physical beings at the same tim... (www.catholic365.com)

The Sweet Sound of Silence

One of the fruits of this time of COVID in my life has been the increasing comfort with silence. Noise feels noisier these days. Song, media and noise used to be a consistent way I heard God, but nowadays, I spend more time in the silence of life, listening to that whisper and enjoying His presence.... (www.catholic365.com)

Are you as courageous as the signers of the Declaration of Independence?

Back at the time of the Declaration of Independence, the signers became the most wanted men. The British wanted to make an example of these men. The signers knew this. John Hancock’s large signature seemed to be a taunt to the British; “come and get me”. These men had courage and lived in hope t... (www.catholic365.com)

Hope for Humanity

Herman perched his glasses on his nose, stared at the bottle of bathroom cleaner with the foamy suds on the label, and swerved his gaze to his beloved dog—the one giving him the mopey What-did-I-Do-To-Deserve-This? look—and realized his mistake. It wasn’t the first time.... (www.catholic365.com)

Hate is not your friend. It will only destroy you.

Hating a hateful person is also hate. Many of us feel justified in our hate because we are only hating the hateful people. You know, them. But hate will get us nowhere. We all know this. Yet hate stirs up within us. It starts as anger and then gets twisted into hate. Anger towards a wrong, li... (www.catholic365.com)

"Are there any Winners in the Church because of Covid-19?"

A very rhetorical question that should be on the minds of each one. You can walk or drive by most Catholic Churches and notice signs informing that this building is closed. The devastation of an unseen, and for the most part a confusing entity, has held all of us hostage. This event has affected ... (www.catholic365.com)

How can we make it through this?

With this current pandemic and the chaos in our country, it seems too much for us to confront. Our lives can feel that way sometimes without a pandemic or nationwide chaos. We can feel like we are sinking in the sea. But we need to focus on what, or more specifically Who, has conquered the chaos ... (www.catholic365.com)
