“You shall love the Lord, your God, with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your mind. This is the greatest and first commandment. The second is like it: You shall love your neighbor as yourself. The whole law and the prophets depend on these two commandments.”
“It is Jesus in fact that you seek when you dream of happiness. He is waiting for you when nothing else you find satisfies you.”
Pope St. John Paul II

“A psalm of thanksgiving. Shout joyfully to the LORD, all you lands; serve the LORD with gladness; come before him with joyful song. Know that the LORD is God, he made us, we belong to him, we are his people, the flock he shepherds.

This is precisely what it means to “give to the emperor the things that are the emperor’s, and to God the things that are God’s”: to be truthful, free from servile fear or hypocrisy, free to do good. Let us pray to the Lord to help us live in this way. #GospelOfTheDay (Mt 22:15-21)

Great job by this theology professor! The Bible is not silent on abortion because the Bible is clear on the sanctity of human life and the value of children.
James Talarico used faith to defend the destruction of innocent lives. He cannot be trusted to lead.

I ever with Thee and Thou with me, Lord
Thou my great Father, and I Thy true son
Thou in me dwelling and I with Thee one
Philippians 2:1-11
Emptying ourselves of selfish pursuits for earthly goods and opening ourselves to God’s grace for service to others is the way of holiness, shown to us by Christ Jesus. We are called to walk with Him.

Friends, Fulton Sheen was a fierce voice against communism, recognizing its threat and its essential atheism. He would be deeply troubled by its comeback in our country.
While in St. Louis, I shared with Fox why we need that voice again today. Read it below:
“Only-begotten, Word of God eternal,
Lord of creation, merciful and mighty,
Hear us, your servants, when our tuneful voices
Rise to your presence!”
Fun night starting with an Open Porch party and ending with friends going to watch #HeaveninStoneandGlass movie from @BishopBarron and @WordOnFire
Beauty drawing us to truth and goodness.
