On Fire for Jesus

so inspiring

I might not be called to minister to orphans in Uganda, but this video has me motivated to live out my own vocation to the fullest. Who can I be Jesus to today?


"Why I Love Religion, And Love Jesus"

A fun and enriching video

Did you see this? A Catholic priests raps his response to the viral “Why I Hate Religion, But Love Jesus” video. It’s amusing and very well done - and he covers a lot of points in under three minutes!

The Bunny's Angel

The joy of teaching kids about God

When I decided to major in theology in college, one of the reasons I did it was so that when my future children asked the hard questions, I’d be able to answer some of them.

I pictured solemn dinner table discussions about topics like Purgatory and the Beatific Vision. My kids would know exactly what “Oh happy fault!” means, and the difference between plenary and partial indulgences. I could teach... READ MORE
