When Death Arrives, Will You Say Joyfully: O Death, Where is Thy Sting?

May 27, 2020 by Deacon Frederick Bartels Leave a Comment

graveyard, cemetary

There are no ranks among the victors over death for libertines, religious freethinkers, and those who value pride and power over meekness, humility and love. Those who raise the banner of triumph, adorned with everlasting life, do so by the saving death of Christ.

Cross, Crucifix and Resurrection

April 18, 2020 by Suellen Dusek Leave a Comment

Crucifixion of Christ

Thinking of all the crosses I’d borne throughout the years, along with those I’d watched friends and family carry, it occurred to me that one can’t enjoy blessings without having known something of suffering.

Holy Week 2020: What He’s Done for Me

April 9, 2020 by Lauren Heaton Leave a Comment

crucifixion of Christ and discipleship

Holy Week. I’m not ready. Not sure I have the strength. Not sure if I’m ready to think about more sacrifices. And I don’t want to think about the suffering you went through, Lord Jesus.

Pope St. John Paul II:

Jesus Christ meets the man of every age, including our own, with the same words: “You will know the truth, and the truth will make you free.” These words contain both a fundamental requirement and a warning: the requirement of an honest relationship with regard to truth as a condition for authentic freedom, and the warning to avoid every kind of illusory freedom, every superficial unilateral freedom, every freedom that fails to enter into the whole truth about man and the world.  (Redemptor Hominis No. 12)
