Mother Teresa’s 15 tips to help you become more humble...
Good self-esteem is confidence in one's worth or abilities. Think about Mother Teresa. That little nun had good self-esteem. She even dared to speak against abortion at the National Prayer Breakfast in 1993 before her invited hosts President Bill Clinton, and Vice President Al Gore, and their spouses. That’s guts. That’s self-confidence. And that’s humility.
‘Taken into the arms of Mary’ — When Joseph Stalin’s daughter became Catholic...
Svetlana Stalin, the daughter of the murderous dictator Joseph Stalin, renounced materialism and converted to Catholicism. Joseph would not have approved. In fact, Svetlana once reportedly told an editor of National Review that “my father would have shot me for what I have done.”

What’s wrong with modern Biblical scholarship? A conversation with Dr. Scott Hahn...
Most faithful Catholics instinctively know that modern Biblical scholarship is destructive to faith. But why? What are the roots of this crisis? Dr. Scott Hahn joins Crisis Point to explain how modern scholarship was led astray...and how we can get it back on track. Also, he gives practical advice and tools for the average Catholic to read the Bible as it was intended to be read — in the heart of the Church.
The Lord gives a well-trained tongue — a homily for the 23rd Sunday of the Year...
The Gospels do not simply tell us stories of people who lived thousands of years ago; they tell us our story, and this Sunday’s Gospel is no different. We encounter a deaf man with a speech impediment living in a pagan land; this man represents each of us. If you are prepared to accept it, you are also Jesus, for His story and His work are largely yours as well.
10 takeaways from the Pope’s latest interview...
The recent wide-ranging, 90-minute interview that Pope Francis granted to the radio station of the Spanish bishops’ conference (Radio COPE), garnered wide attention for his comments about his health and possible resignation, but that was not the most significant part of the Holy Father’s comments. Here are 10 takeaways from the interview...
Living well on earth and entering Heaven: The 19 types of judgment...
There are at least nineteen different kinds of judgment that we should distinguish. I’m sorry I could not find a twentieth, to match the number of digits on our fingers and toes. But nineteen does match the digits of Frodo Baggins, one of my heroes. The importance of the topic wisely assigned to me, judgment, is obvious. For one thing, making judgments is a privilege of persons only...
4 Pole Double Throw Knife Disconnect Switch With LED Indicators
Pope Francis offered rare comments on the Vatican’s dealings with China, defending the Church’s controversial diplomatic efforts with the Communist regime while acknowledging that the process has yielded “questionable” results. The Pope was unusually candid for a Vatican official about the challenge of engagement with China, while doubling down on commitment to the diplomatic process. But the Pope’s remarks raise the prospect...

Who is the mysterious Woman Clothed with the Sun in Revelation 12?
The book of Revelation contains a passage in which St. John sees a great sign in the sky. He wrote: And a great portent appeared in heaven, a woman clothed with the sun, with the moon under her feet, and on her head a crown of twelve stars. She brought forth a male child, one who is to rule all the nations with a rod of iron, but her child was caught up to God and to his throne...
Is Pope Francis suffering from the ‘September curse’? The last few days, to put it mildly, have not been kind to him...
When the Italian soccer team laid an egg earlier this week in the World Cup qualifiers, tying 1-1 against a Bulgaria squad they were supposed to beat handily, many commentators here chalked it up to the so-called “September curse.” The idea is that it can be tough to shake off the cobwebs after the August doldrums, sometimes with embarrassing results.

Why Mother Teresa insisted on a daily Eucharistic holy hour...
One of the “secrets” to Mother Teresa’s success as a missionary of charity was her commitment to a daily holy hour in front of the Eucharistic Jesus. She did not waver in her belief that prayer before Jesus was essential to her work among the most vulnerable of society. Mother Teresa gave a powerful speech to those assembled for the Eucharistic Congress in Philadelphia in 1976, and reiterated this simple fact.

Who will help women in Texas (and elsewhere) have their babies? This is where we come in...
It was ghoulish to read about Texas abortion clinics working through 11:59 last night to get as many babies aborted before the new heartbeat bill went into law. That’s what abortion is — the killing of an unborn baby. We can all agree that we want to help women. We don’t help women when we lie about what abortion is. I watch day after day as women get ushered in the doors of abortion clinics...

Though the news didn’t receive the coverage that Rolling Stones drummer Charlie Watt’s death did, Joey Jordison, the lead drummer of the heavy metal band Slipknot as well as guitarist for the horror punk band Murderdolls, died last month. He was 46. The vagaries of the heavy metal subgenres are obscurely pretentious and unintelligible to the rest of humanity...
