Gospel Passage Suggests Perspective On Your Toughest Days: It’s What You’re Here For

A particular passage from John 12 caught my ear this morning during Mass. Jesus looking toward the eventual horror of his own crucifixion says: “I am troubled. Yet what should I say? ‘Father, save me from this hour?’ But it was for this purpose that I came to this hour. Father, glorify your name.” It’s […]

Oft Misunderstood Feast of the Immaculate Conception

Today is the Feast of the Immaculate Conception of Mary today (and a Holy Day of Obligation). This is one that many folks misunderstand and think relates to Jesus’ conception, but in fact commemorates the Catholic belief that Mary herself was immune to original sin, even from the moment of her conception. Here’s a nice […]

I’ll bet you’ve seen some things…

Friend on Facebook left a comment on a status update I’d posted as I was getting ready for an early morning long run suggesting “you witness a world most people don’t ever see on your early morning sojourns.” I don’t know what other people see, but I responded with a bit of what I’ve seen […]
