Marriage As Communion
Many couples struggle in their marriages as the world continues to bring doubt and division into what was meant to be a holy, sacramental communion. Our guests Bill Donaghy and John Edwards discuss the beauty and gift of marriage.
Joy in Suffering
As we celebrate the Third Sunday of Advent, The Church reminds us of the coming Joy of Christmas, that Jesus is born for us in this fallen world. But, even amidst our sufferings, we can still find joy.
To Come
The word Advent tells us that something…or actually, some One…is coming. The Church wants us to see the season of Advent as an opportunity to bring hope into our lives, see the potential and possibilities, and even experience a new beginning in life.
O Come Let Us Decorate
Thanksgiving is a wonderful time of giving thanks with gathered family and friends and the traditional beginning of the holiday season. But it can also be a time where we forget the true and special meaning and purpose of the Advent season.
Angry At God
Life can certainly be difficult at times, even seemingly hopeless. Some people may find themselves angry at God, asking Him why this could be happening. Perhaps we can see some light at the end of the tunnel, and find a way to stay in grace.

Political Correctness
When Jesus tells us he came to bring division, not peace, we must not be confused. He came to draw a line in the sand concerning Good and Evil.
