Sorry for the delay, having internet connectivity issues! The topic: suggested by one of my listeners. Do you have moral courage? Do I? Not so easy especially in this modern society.  Some thoughts on what it appears to be and wow, I have a long way to go. And also the need to learn patience. This internet situation took up a lot of hours, and I was. . . less than cheerful. Much less than. 

Fulton Sheen’s Beatification Time Has Come!

Fulton Sheen’s cause for sainthood was interrupted abruptly almost three years ago. There has been dead silence since then, and at this time, it appears that the rationale no longer pertains. And yet, still the silence. The controversy created around him may have caused more people to have come to know his prophetic words about sin and redemption but especially now, we need an American Saint whose recorded words remind us of the spiritual battle that is raging around us.

Change of Direction?

It is good to resort to Tradition, the Magisterium, the Bible and all the other deep writings of great thinkers in doing this podcast, but I am not an educator. I’m just an Ordinary Catholic talking about my struggles and, maybe, yours, and I want not to disguise those struggles with a faux intellectuality. I read a lot, yes, but that’s not the essence of this small effort. So, a change of direction seems in order. Maybe it won’t be noticeable; maybe it will. Either way, that’s today’s plan.

Final Retreat Thoughts

Three episodes about what I took away from my Ignatian Retreat and I know I haven’t captured it. But maybe my little reminiscence will lead you to an online retreat (I do highly recommend Fr. Ed Broom at St. Peter Chanel Church; just check You Tube for a taste of it) or something more intense as the one that I did.
