Your Weapons Are Scripture and Tradition (Review: “Dual Wielding”)

Published October 11, 2016 • Written by Lindsay Wilcox Filed Under: Blog, Faith, Prayer, Resources, Reviews

I’ve discovered a new kind of Catholic nerdery! I like books and learning and grammar and trivia, so I’ve long considered myself a nerd with personality. When I came back to the Church just over a decade ago, I found it only natural to become a Catholic nerd, too. There are, however, limits to my… [Read More]

The Heart

Published June 15, 2015 • Written by Rachel Filed Under: Blog, Faith, Marriage and Love, Young Adult

This past weekend the wisdom of the Church invited us to experience a beautiful truth – the unity of the Sacred Heart of Jesus and the Immaculate Heart of Mary. The Church led us into this discovery of this union by celebrating the Solemnity of the Most Sacred Heart on Friday that leads us into the Memorial of… [Read More]

So You Think Your Kid Needs a Cell Phone

Published August 27, 2013 • Written by Kathryn Whitaker Filed Under: Blog

Oh, how I wish there was an entry in the Catechism for questions such as these. We have five children, the oldest is twelve and in seventh grade. And, if my gray hairs are any indication, he has asked us for a cell phone no less than one billion times. The answer is still no…. [Read More]

Lumen Fidei: Part I, Illusion and Illumination

Published August 2, 2013 • Written by Rachel Filed Under: Blog

With all of the excitement from World Youth Day in Rio, we’ve been receiving fresh doses of inspiration from our dear Pope each day. Pope Francis has been building a deep and coherent message for all of us these past few weeks, starting with the publication of Lumen Fidei, his first encyclical. Even as he… [Read More]

Slave of Two Masters, A Book Pre-view

Published June 7, 2013 • Written by Rachel Filed Under: Blog

With the arrival of summer, I have been stressing out about money. Vacations, weddings, extra weekly outings with friends in town, switching apartments…etc. I know I’m not alone in this – every summer there is a HUGE push in sales, advertising, etc around vacations, summer activities, entertainment, fashion, food – all that. I’d like to… [Read More]

Your New Catholic Toolkit (Review: “The Confirmed Catholic’s Companion”)

Published February 19, 2013 • Written by Lindsay Wilcox Filed Under: Faith, Reviews, Young Adult, Youth

“Now, Lindsay,” you might say, “it’s barely Lent! Confirmation season isn’t for months!” Well, you’re right. It’s not Confirmation season, and except in emergencies, no one is going to be confirmed for at least six more weeks. That makes it the perfect time to consider not only what delightful Catholic reference book you’re going to… [Read More]

What’s Wrong with the Year of Faith?

Published November 20, 2012 • Written by Laura Gonzalez Filed Under: Blog, Faith, Young Adult

Sometimes I think in memes. I catch myself thinking “McKayla is not impressed” (disapproval) or of the fist pump baby (approval) in various situations throughout the day. (See Rita’s previous post for some ideas on where to find some funny Catholic ones.) I’m so not sure what that says about me, but that’s okay. The… [Read More]

A Proposal to the Youth (Review: “YOUCAT, the Youth Catechism”)

Published October 16, 2012 • Written by Lindsay Wilcox Filed Under: Blog, Faith, Family, Reviews, Young Adult, Youth

I’m a little late in the game, but I’m also right on time for the Year of Faith: I finally took a deeper look into the YOUCAT*. Released to coincide with the last World Youth Day (WYD) and distributed to all official pilgrims, the YOUCAT was written to transmit content based from the Catechism of… [Read More]

Tech and Catechetics

Published September 28, 2012 • Written by Cristóbal Almanza Filed Under: Faith

Our youth live in a world of extreme media consumption. Many of us today are never phased by the amount of time we spend staring at a screen or the amount of screens we have in front of us any given time of the day. It is unmistakable that our American culture is over-saturated with… [Read More]
