Every time is an opportune time for an encounter with God through work, service to others, and prayer. Father Timothy Uhen gives practical advice on how to take advantage of the current lockdown to grow in our relationship with Christ and our friends.

Finding God in the Lockdown

“Te adoro con devoción, Dios escondido”. Himno eucarístico que nos invita a adorar al único verdadero Dios, oculto bajo las apariencias del pan. Y a hacerlo “devotamente”, es decir, con cariño, con pasión de amor. La Eucaristía nos introduce en una polarización de nuestra vida: nos enseña de la totalidad, la locura, la atención en exclusiva, la humildad y, ante todo, el Amor infinito de que somos objeto.

Keeping Love Alive

Doug reads a letter by Alice Von Hildebrand from her book: By Love Refined. In this letter, Alice discusses sexual intimacy in marriage and emphasizes how pleasure is the reward but not the intent. The intent is the union of souls which results in joy, transcending sexual pleasure. Doug unpacks the importance of emotional intimacy coming before physical intimacy in marriage   Resources:   By Love Refined <a href="https://sophiainstitute.com/product/by-love-refined/?srsltid=AfmBOoqO3lJMj2FF_pWgyWOi3sgxiatKYn1LayKZQIHEOg34FnEkgugd">https://sophiainstitute.com/product/by-love-refined/?srsltid=AfmBOoqO3lJMj2FF_pWgyWOi3sgxiatKYn1LayKZQIHEOg34FnEkgugd</a> Marriage Unhindered <a href="https://www.marriageunhindered.com/">https://www.marriageunhindered.com/</a>   Catholic Therapists <a href="https://www.catholictherapists.com/">https://www.catholictherapists.com/</a>

Listener questions and comments: <ul> <li>Edward - I think men's emotional needs are fulfilled with physical intimacy. (9:30)</li> <li>Mary Alice - What do you do when your husband is bragging about you in public, but not at home. There's verbal abuse, almost like Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde. (19:51)</li> <li>Jack - I'm dealing with an adult son who&rsquo;s 30 years old and his fianc&eacute; was criticizing him in front of my daughter, her boyfriend and my ex. What do you think? (24:39)</li> <li>Marcel - If couples are not following what Doug is saying about intimacy, trust, and affection, then it's not a marriage, and you have a real problem. (33:29)</li> <li>Susan - You don't get to use the excuse of past experiences as a get out of jail free card. (39:03)</li> <li>Regina - My husband is very odd and he gets angry with me when I say good things about him. He thinks I lie, and then he tells the kids I'm lying. (42:20)</li> </ul>

Suffering in Marriage

The parable of the ten virgins invites us to reflect on the virtue of wisdom.  Wisdom has to do with having the right goals and knowing how to achieve them.  If our goal is heaven, the means to achieve this is charity.  Growth in charity demands of us a variety of other steps depending on our personal situation and history.  To know what we want is not enough, we must also be committed to the steps required to achieve it. <a href='https://comeawaybyyourselves.com'>https://comeawaybyyourselves.com</a>

Growth in Wisdom

Are you seeking to draw near to Our Lord more each day?As heard in the Gospel for the 33rd Sunday of Ordinary Time, we encountered the endearing figure of Zacchaeus, a tax collector who had a poor reputation among his Jewish confreres, but nevertheless had a deep desire to meet Jesus. He overcame his shame and reached out to be close to Jesus who was passing by. In this podcast, Fr. Eric Nicolai reflects on the promptness of Zacchaeus– his initiative and the grace of conversion that he received on account of his own generosity. Fr. Eric challenges us to have this same initiative in our interior life and reminds us that it requires humble examination of conscience and a willingness to begin again. In doing so, we will obtain a lasting serenity and joy found only in the grace of Christ.

Beginning Again & Again

In this episode of Marriage Unhindered, Doug reads a letter from Alice Von Hildebrand in which she advises a young bride who is irritated by her husband’s behavior. Doug shares that little irritations in marriage don’t mean you have a bad marriage but that you married a human. Making a list of your spouse’s positives can help you look past the little irritations of everyday life. Doug also unpacks the importance of kindness in marriage and how little acts of kindness go a long way.   Resources: Marriage Unhindered <a href="https://www.marriageunhindered.com/">https://www.marriageunhindered.com/</a>   Happy Marriage for Life <a href="https://www.happymarriageforlife.com/">https://www.happymarriageforlife.com/</a>   Catholic Therapists <a href="https://www.catholictherapists.com/">https://www.catholictherapists.com/</a>

Lent - Day 33

Today in the podcast... Fr Peter Armenio, a priest of Opus Dei, reflects on the New Commandment from Jesus Christ which he issued to the Apostles before the Last Supper.This commandment is particularly difficult to follow since we are asked to love one another as Jesus loves us, which is a very tall order. How can we match Jesus’ love for us! However, Fr. Peter Armenio makes a point to note that when God issues a commandment, it is because we can live it. Do not write yourself off! “No matter how much you may love, you will never love enough. The human heart is endowed with an enormous coefficient of expansion. When it loves, it opens out in a crescendo of affection that overcomes all barriers. If you love Our Lord, there will not be a single creature that does not find a place in your heart” (St Josemaria Escriva, The Way of the Cross; Eight Station, Number 5). THANK YOU FOR LISTENING!

The New Commandment

Are you seeking to draw near to Our Lord more each day? In our meditation of the week, Fr. Eric Nicolai reflects on the inspiring figure of Zacchaeus from the Gospel of St. Luke—a tax collector with a tarnished reputation among his Jewish peers, yet driven by a sincere desire to encounter Jesus. Despite his shame, Zacchaeus took bold steps to draw near to the Lord as he passed by. Fr. Eric highlights Zacchaeus’ promptness and initiative, which opened him to the transformative grace of conversion—a grace he received through his own generosity of heart. Fr. Eric challenges us to adopt this same initiative in our interior life, emphasizing the importance of humble self-examination and a willingness to begin again. <a href='https://stjosemaria.org/wp-content/uploads/2024/11/Beginning-Again-Again-Transcript.pdf'>View Transcript</a> <a href='https://stjosemaria.org/podcasts/beginning-again-and-again/'>Visit Show Page</a> THANK YOU FOR LISTENING!

Jesús nos ha revelado al Padre: a Dios nadie lo ha visto jamás, pero el Hijo nos lo ha dado a conocer. Nos revela a un Dios que se conmueve, un Dios que se enternece ante el hijo pródigo. Y yo, ¿me dirijo con cariño y confianza al Padre celestial? No solo cuando rezo el Padrenuestro sino también en mi contemplación. El Padre me ama a mí con su amor infinito, y la concusión de todas esas verdades será vivir en confiado abandono.

Lent - Day 29

Aquel que me ama, guardará mi palabra, y mi Padre lo amará, y haremos en él nuestra morada. Pedir amor supone darlo antes. Guardar su palabra es la consecuencia. Hacer que se nos entrañe, al descender a las regiones abisales de nuestra alma. Entonces nos identificaremos con el Hijo, y nos convertiremos en morada de la Trinidad, adelantando el Cielo.

Lent - Day 21

&quot;I have called you my friends.&quot;  These words of Jesus teach us how we should speak to him in our prayer.  Close friends converse with each other confidently and intimately.  We should habitually share all of our thoughts, feelings, and concerns with our friend Jesus. He is interested in any and every thing that affects us.  In times of trouble, when it seems like he has left us, this continuous dialogue becomes even more important.  They are moments to be trustingly sincere and simple.  Eventually he will help us through even the greatest trials and tribulations.  <a href='https://comeawaybyyourselves.com'>https://comeawaybyyourselves.com</a>

Lent - Day 30

In preparation for the Christian Unity Octave which begins January 18th, we are sharing the first meditation from In Conversation with God, Volume 6. There is a meditation for each day of the unity octave!

Christian Unity Octave - In Conversation with God

El tesoro escondido y la perla preciosa, ¿cómo entenderlos? Desde varias ópticas; una, la del Amor que Dios nos tiene. De creerlo, viviríamos en la más feliz y tranquila de las existencias. El fuego quema, el sol alumbra, el agua refresca. ¿Y Dios? Ama, como que esa es su esencia. ¿Y cuál es la mayor de las manifestaciones de su Amor? La Encarnación del Verbo. Busquemos la continua unión con Jesús, y viviremos en el Amor.

2025-07-30 El Amor ama

En el capítulo 6º de san Juan, Jesús prepara poro a poco a sus oyentes, antes de revelarles el gran misterio de la Eucaristía. No es el maná el pan del cielo que el Padre les da, sino es Él mismo. San Juan de la Cruz escribió “Aquesta eterna fonte está escondida / en este vivo Pan por darnos vida / aunque es de noche”. Sí, una fuente eterna que hay que buscar en la oscuridad de la fe.

2026-08-30 Yo soy el Pan de vida

Jesus fulfills his promise to &quot;remain with us always&quot; with his presence in the Eucharist.  To believe in his real presence is a game changer in our prayer life and in life in general.  Jesus is alive in the Eucharist so that he can be fully alive in us.  <a href='https://comeawaybyyourselves.com'>https://comeawaybyyourselves.com</a>

03-05-25 Impossible Indulgence (RS)

El que sufre reclama consuelo. Y nosotros sufrimos la pena de la ausencia. En la carta a los Colosenses, san Pablo nos desea que seamos consolados en nuestros corazones. Lo maravilloso del asunto es que, al ser consolados por Cristo, podemos nosotros consolarlo a Él. La sed de Dios arranca de sus mismas profundidades. El tesoro está dentro de cada uno, porque ahí podemos realizar el encuentro y la unión.

2025-08-08 Ser consolado y consolar

A meditation by Fr. Eric Nicolai at Ellerton Center in Toronto, preached on July 4th, 2026.Mt 20:1-16: Parable of the Workers in the Vineyard.For the kingdom of heaven is like a landowner who went out early in the morning to hire workers for his vineyard. 2 He agreed to pay them a denarius for the day and sent them into his vineyard. From that early moment, he went out many times after. 9 a.m., He went out again about noon and about three p.m. Then again about five p.m. He asked them, ‘Why have you been standing here all day long doing nothing?’ “‘Because no one has hired us,’ they answered. “He said to them, ‘You also go and work in my vineyard.’ Even at the end of our life, God calls us.Thumbnail: Jean-François Millet, les Glaneuses, Musée d’Orsay 1857Music: pulsebox-piano-music-cinematic-552722

Workers in the Vineyard

San Juan Pablo II, luego del atentado que sufrió el 13 de mayo de 1981, quiso consagrar la humanidad al Corazón Inmaculado de María. ¿Qué significa ‘consagrar’? Dirigir lo consagrado a lo divino. Nos consagraron cuando nos bautizaron y nos consagró el Papa, y san Josemaría en cuatro ocasiones. Una de ellas, al Sagrado Corazón de Jesús, para que el nuestro le pertenezca.

Lent - Day 34

In this reflection, Fr. Luke Mata shares how Advent is a gentle wake-up call for parents to step out of distraction and make room for Christ in the midst of family life. Through prayer, Confession, and simple acts of love, he helps us prepare our hearts for Jesus’ coming.A meaningful listen as we prepare for the coming of Christ at Christmas!

Advent Reflection from Fr. Luke Mata

In this podcast, Fr. Javier del Castillo shares a reflection on working for God, inspired by the homily given by Saint Josemaria on February 6, 1960. Fr. Javier poses three important questions for us to consider as we approach work each day: Do we work for Christ? We see in the beginning passages of Scripture that God gave man and woman the vocation to work – to till the garden. We are each called to put our talents at the service of God. Work itself is not to be seen as the end, but rather, to be seen as the means to pray, sacrifice, and give glory to God. Do we work in Christ? Christ, the source of love, spent his hidden years working. He spent this time working out of love for his heavenly Father as well as out of love for each one of us. By his example, Christ shows that we are called to sanctify the task at hand through the grace given to us by God. If we work out of love, we will see the fruit of our labor in heaven. As we work closely with God, we are slowly transformed and begin to reflect the love of Christ to others. Do we work through Christ? As we are transformed by the love of Christ, our daily actions slowly move away from being a choice of habit to being a choice of free will. Working through Christ creates in us the awareness for whom we are working as well as the reason behind our work. THANK YOU FOR LISTENING!

Working for God

Greg Shutte joins Doug to discuss the blame game. How does the blame game affect your marriage? How can mercy and forgiveness fix the problem and what are practical ways to practice these virtues? Plus: Stump a therapist!

Stump the Therapist

San Pablo instruye a su discípulo Timoteo en el conocimiento de Cristo. Le hace ver que el Verbo encarnado es la mayor prueba del amor de Dios, y que debe buscar la unión con Él en el amor. Todos somos Timoteo, porque una y otra vez necesitamos ser instruidos en el conocimiento de Cristo, la ciencia más alta. Intentar que abarque todo nuestro ámbito vital, dando gracias al Padre por habernos hecho el gran Don de su benevolencia.

2024-03-07 Conocimiento unitivo

¿Hacernos como niños para entrar en el Reino de los Cielos? ¿Qué derivaciones tiene esta invitación del Señor? Quizá la consideración de nuestra nada frente al todo de Dios. Y, de ahí, el abandono confiado. Y esto en cualquier época de la vida, aunque quizá en la vejez, en la que se repiten características de la niñez (como la indefensión), se haga más necesario. La infancia espiritual es ejercicio de virtudes teologales. Dios esperará de nosotros la sencillez y el cariño del niño.

2024-05-20 Como niño ante Dios

Mark 1, 29-39: All the demons he expelled, all the sickness….Demons possess a supernatural type of knowledge and therefore they recognize Jesus as the Messiah (Mk 1:24). Through the people they possess demons are able to publish this fact. But our Lord, using his divine powers, orders them to be silent. Some Fathers of the Church point out that Jesus does not want to accept, in support of the truth, the testimony of him who is the father of lies.
Spiritual direction can help us come closer to the truth about ourselves, and avoid lies.

Spiritual Direction

First reading: Isaiah 49, 1-6
"Islands, listen to me, pay attention, remotest peoples. The Lord called me before I was born, from my mother’s womb he pronounced my name.
He made my mouth a sharp sword, and hid me in the shadow of his hand. He made me into a sharpened arrow, and concealed me in his quiver."
He promises that a new servant of the Lord is coming, someone who will really restore the city of Zion. Applied to Jesus, but also his forerunner, John The Baptist.
He was to be a voice crying in the wilderness, to make way the way for the Lord. Make way for the action of grace in souls around him. This is why he was calling to repentance. But we can also picture him as a child, contemplate him playing with Jesus, his cousin. Don't say much, just contemplate them...

01-02-24 Don’t Overpack (MC)

Mary Magdalene&apos;s encounter with the Risen Christ is truly a master class in love.   She teaches us lessons of desire, sorrow, responsibility and union with God.  Ultimately, to love is to convert, to make the center of our existence God and others shifting it away from ourselves.   <a href='https://comeawaybyyourselves.com'>https://comeawaybyyourselves.com</a>

A Master Class of Love

Why would Jesus, the Prince of Peace, say He came not to bring peace but division? Fr. Luke Mata explores one of the most puzzling Gospel passages, Luke 12:49–53, where Jesus declares that following Him involves spiritual warfare, self-denial, and perseverance through struggle. The meditation emphasizes that Christian life is not meant to be easy or comfortable but a constant battle against sin, temptation, and complacency. Drawing lessons from Saints Peter and Paul, Fr. Luke highlights that holiness is not about perfection but about rising each time we fall and faithfully beginning again, and calls all listeners to awaken from spiritual laziness and embrace the narrow, demanding, but joy-filled path of true discipleship.

Did Jesus Really Come to Bring Division?

La alabanza de Isabel a María -bienaventurada tú que has creído- resulta muy ilustrativa: los frutos de la redención vendrán por el corazón abierto a la revelación de Dios. Veamos a Dios con los ojos abiertos y con los ojos cerrados, descubriéndolo en cada realidad. Si la fe es nuestro modo de vida, estaremos inmersos en ese mundo que escapa a los sentidos pero que es el único permanente.

Having the true God as our personal God is a great accomplishment and privilege.  The worship of false gods can take various forms.  In order to be truly human and  to love God as he deserves, we need to identify and cast out our idols.

Detoxing from Idols

Noviembre es un mes escatológico: comienza con los fieles difuntos y termina poniéndonos delante los acontecimientos del fin del mundo. Pero la culminación es una fiesta de esperanza y alegría: la Solemnidad de Cristo Rey. Llama la atención que la liturgia de la Solemnidad traiga a colación la cruz: y es porque Jesús es un Rey crucificado. La insignia de este reinado es la Cruz, y tiene palabras clave: austeridad, mortificación, pobreza, sobriedad, templanza, desprendimiento…

How do you heal a broken heart? How do you deal with unresolved childhood trauma? Doug answers these questions and more. &nbsp; Listener questions and comments: <ul> <li>Christine - I am reading a story of a woman in the Nazi camps who forgave the Nazis for what they did to her. it was so inspiring and reminded me of what you&rsquo;re saying about forgiveness.

(26:19)</li> <li>Anthony - My wife was abused by her uncle. We were married in 1980 and she didn&rsquo;t tell me until 1990. She lied in front of a priest too.

2024-12-21 Que tu fe lo abarque todo

Lo que lleva a plenitud de vida de cualquier hombre es el cumplimiento de la voluntad de Dios. Para eso, es preciso oír, y para oír debemos abrir el corazón a la fe. A Dios le agrada nuestra obediencia interior, el deseo de aceptar plenamente su querer. San José es modelo en el cumplimiento de la voluntad de Dios sin rechistar, es decir, sin emitir ni una palabra, ni un sonido, de resistencia a ese querer.

2024-08-10 Cumple sin chistar la voluntad de Dios

Jesus&apos; visit to Martha and Mary contains great insights for our Christian life.  Mary&apos;s attention to our Lord is a great act of appreciation and love.  Jesus&apos; correction of Martha is not owing to her being busy serving, but more for her being distracted and worried.  Love, which includes prayer, is the one thing necessary.   And love unites our attention, giving focus and purpose to all that we do. <a href='https://comeawaybyyourselves.com'>https://comeawaybyyourselves.com</a>

Love and Attention

El Catecismo de la Iglesia Católica nos enseña que la oración es un combate. Así lo desarrolla el n. 2725, animándonos a vencer los dos enemigos fundamentales: nuestro propio yo y las tácticas del demonio. En las primeras, tenemos que superar la falta de fe, el aletargamiento, en monólogos donde encontramos mil justificaciones. El segundo enemigo son las formas erróneas de entender la oración: el psicologismo, las prácticas y plegarias rituales, etc. Orar es entregarnos a Dios y recibir a Dios que se nos entrega.

21-01-26 Facing Goliath (RS)

In Jesus' encounter with the Samaritan woman, we are shown what it means to look at another person with a pure gaze. Father Joe Keefe reflects on the universal thirst and hunger for true happiness. Holy Purity is the virtue that allows us to feed and drink from the one Source that never fails, that never dries up.

Pacem in Terris (Part 4)

Magdalena no se va del sepulcro. Luego que Pedro y Juan comprobaron que no estaba el cuerpo del Señor, ella permanece ahí, llorando. Esperaba recuperar un cadáver y se encuentra a Jesús vivo. “Se apareció a María Magdalena, que está loca de amor. Y a ti y a mí, más locos que la Magdalena…”. Todo consiste en el amor: hagámoslo crecer, manteniendo en Jesús nuestro pensamiento.

Marriage, Suffering, and Lasting Hope

In this podcast, Fr. Peter Armenio reflects on joy as an essential characteristic to our participation in the new evangelization. Throughout the Advent season, we seek to remove the obstacles that separate us from God and prepare to receive the outpouring of joy so that we may become a witness to the love of God the Father.

Gateway to Joy

El Padre celestial se refiere a su Hijo como el Amado. ¿Lo es también para mí? ¿Es mi mundo interior un continuo encuentro con su mundo interior? El mayor bien, en realidad el único bien, se encuentra en el amor al Amado. La vida divina que está en cada uno de nosotros se despliega en los encuentros con el Amado.

2026-07-26 Que sea amado

Lent is a wonderful opportunity to find our peace, joy, and comfort in God.  We do this by denying ourselves our usual sources of support, distraction, and pleasure.   To be filled by God is to run the risk of emptying ourselves out of other things.  This takes trust, courage and patience.   God always responds to this kind of personal faith, even when it is imperfect and needs to grow.

[Rebroadcast]: Having a Happily Miserable Lent

In Love Finds a Way, Stephen Gabriel shares a deeply personal and practical guide for cultivating a richer interior life. Drawing on the wisdom of St. Josemaría and the spiritual tradition of the Church, Gabriel offers encouragement, structure, and specific devotions to help lay Catholics grow in friendship with Christ.

Love Finds A Way

On today&apos;s podcast we are reminded, for our contemplation, of the words Pope Benedict XVI offered on the meaning of freedom: “Who is freer than the One who is the Almighty? He did not, however, live his freedom as an arbitrary power or as domination. He lived it as a service. In this way he ‘filled’ freedom with content, which would otherwise have remained an ‘empty’ possibility of doing or not doing something. . .freedom draws its meaning from love . . .” If it is true happiness that we are looking for when seeking freedom, then we should observe the actions of Jesus Christ.  He himself showed us how to be obedient to God the Father no matter the cost. And, in return, God the Father nourishes Jesus’ strength to carry out his act of love for the Father.  This is the model the saints chose to follow and it would be wise for us to do the same.

Freedom

Jesús comienza en solitario su predicación, pero pronto se ve rodeado de seguidores. En un momento dado, después de orar, elige a sus apóstoles. Esa elección procede del misterio de comunión entre el Padre y el Hijo. Y el primer motivo de esa elección es “para que estuvieran con Él”. El apóstol necesita un conocimiento personal del Maestro, advirtiendo que se trata de Alguien único, no asimilable a ningún otro líder humano.

2025-07-15 Nos llamó para estar con Él

A meditation preached by Fr. Eric Nicolai on Holy Saturday, April 4, 2026 at Lyncroft Centre in Toronto.The last thing we remember from Good Friday was that he was buried. Without commentary. You only bury someone when you’re absolutely clear that he is dead. He fully participated in the human destiny of death. Jesus travelled the path of death right to the bitter and seemingly hopeless end in the tomb. The first shock began with the empty tomb. On its own, this is not enough to prove the resurrection, but it is the essential premise. Lets see how the early church framed this.Music: Vienna Philharmonic Orchestra Thumbnail: Rembrandt, The supper at Emmaus, 1648, Louvre, Paris.

The Empty Tomb: what now?

In this episode, Farrell Sheehan discusses the need for dads to be intentional in the stewardship of the family's finances.

Episode 16: Financial Stewardship

Matthew 5: But I say to you, everyone who looks at a woman with lust has already committed adultery with her in his heart. If your right eye causes you to sin, tear it out and throw it away. It is better for you to lose one of your members than to have your whole body thrown into Gehenna. And if your right hand causes you to sin, cut it off and throw it away. It is better for you to lose one of your members than to have your whole body go into Gehenna.
The Lord is suggesting something to us about our gaze, about how we look at others. I want to understand what you mean here Lord: it seems that the way we look at someone expresses his deeper intention, our deeper desires. Jesus says this to us in the section where he speaks about adultery. He reminded his disciples of the old law, how it prohibited adultery, but in the new law, there is a push to integrity, to authenticity, greater interior and exterior coherence.&nbsp;

Episode 13: Sexual Education, Part 2

Doug discusses the importance of setting boundaries in marriage. He shares how boundaries are like property lines and help to protect your values, energy, time and let your spouse learn how he or she can love you more and bring more joy into your life. Doug unpacks the types of boundaries: emotional, physical, mental, and spiritual and shares where God set boundaries in the Bible. Listener questions and comments: <ul> <li>Mary - I have a 22-year-old son who graduated from college, and he wants to spend a week with his girlfriend's family. He knows what we think about premarital sex, but my husband and I are not sure about it. What should we do? (18:55)</li> <li>David - When my wife doesn't accept the boundary, what should I do? (35:47)</li> <li>Mary - My daughter's stepdaughter is 20 years old and going to community college. She doesn't do anything to help around the house. How does a stepmother properly set boundaries?

How to set boundaries in marriage

Fr. Eric Nicolai preaches about the Adorote Devote, a Eucharistic hymn written by St. Thomas Aquinas. It is a hymn rich with faith at the real presence, the living presence of this living pelican who suffers and dies for us, but manages to stay with us.

Eucharistic Soul: What is that?

28-10-25 Practically unknown, but who cares (JB)

In the Old Testament, the patriarch Joseph, who prefigures Christ, revealed himself to his brothers who had betrayed him. In their fear, they remained at a distance, but Joseph said, &quot;Come closer to me.&quot; Our Lord does the same with each one of us. A meditation by Father Timothy Uhen.

Come Closer To Me

In this Lenten meditation, taking inspiration from Eugene Boylan’s classic This Tremendous Lover, Father Phil Moss reflects on the Christian call to be &quot;possessed by love.&quot; This radical love is not just something we live in specific situations, but something we become through identification with Christ during this season of conversion. By plunging into His merciful heart, we find the strength to love even our enemies, replacing the &quot;thunder&quot; of our own reactions with the enduring peace of the Gospel.

Lent: Tremendous Lovers

Our Faith should give us great confidence in God.  Waiting around for a feeling of confidence, however, rarely ever works.  Rather we should treat our Faith more like the robust Truth that it is.  Faith is just true, whether we feel like it is or not.  This feeling dependent view of faith ends up filling us with the courage and confidence that we need and want.

Towards a More Certain Faith

Lo absolutamente específico de nuestra fe católica es la Persona de Jesucristo. Da a la revelación de Dios un realismo inaudito. Y, apuntando al centro de la Persona, tenemos el Corazón de Jesús. Estamos invitados a vivir este mes en la intimidad del Sagrado Corazón, descubriendo ahí la mina de incontables tesoros.
