Plinio Corrêa de Oliveira

Model of Catholic Journalism in the Fight for the Church

At the age of twenty-five, I felt that I was born to serve the Catholic Church. It was she who gave meaning to my existence. And the more I dedicated myself to this service, the more clearly I saw the enormous crisis affecting temporal society, creating problems for the Church; …

Proofs of Tender Affection

Our Lady did not refrain from showering her Divine Son with the greatest displays of tenderness and affection. The Child, in turn, would interrupt Her to give her a kiss on the cheek or a caress. Other times, to please her little Son, Our Lady would sing songs composed on …

Belief in Sacred Scriptures: A Matter of Faith or Science?
It was the year 1947, when some Bedouins were wandering through the mountainous regions of Israel, twelve kilometres south of Jericho, in search of a lost animal. Exhausted by the scorching sun, they came across a cave, which seemed an appealing place to rest from their fatigue. In this fortuitous …

Failed Missions… or Promising Ones?
There are in the most wise workings of God certain mysteries incomprehensible to the human mind, which only faith can explain and eternity clarify. The Ascension of Elijah, by Juan de Valdés Leal - Church of Our Lady of Mount Carmel, Cordoba (Spain) Who, for example, knows the reason why …

The Pharisees of the Past
Why was Our Lord not a Pharisee? Had He chosen to follow this path, He would have occupied a position of honour in society. His influence would have enjoyed greater scope, disputes would have been avoided and, who knows, He might even have been officially recognized as the Messiah and …

Gospel Commentary

The Revenge of the Mediocre
Jesus began speaking in the synagogue, saying: 21 “Today this Scripture passage is fulfilled in your hearing.” 22 And all spoke highly of Him and were amazed at the gracious words that came from His mouth. They also asked, “Isn’t this the son of Joseph?” 23 He said to them, …

St. Genevieve - Shield and Glory of Christian Civilization
It was the year 423, a troubled time, sown with wars and invasions, when a dying civilization was emitting its last gasps.1 The Roman Empire, once almost indestructible, threatened to collapse under the furore of the barbarian invasions. Between treaties and military manoeuvres, it had achieved another period of peace; …

Remember that My God Gave Me to You
O blessed St. Francis de Sales, verily a most holy servant of God, my soul’s beloved and surest guide, precious gift of my God; my true father, I ask you, my sweetest teacher, and now my faithful advocate: consider our needs, and do not allow the heart that God has …

Herald of the Good News
Jesus founded the Church on a firm rock (cf. Mt 16:18). Unlike purely human institutions, the Church, besides being immortal, retains a freshness of eternal youth, so to speak, because her Head, Christ (cf. Col 1:18), is the same yesterday, today and forever. The Mystical Bride of Christ has certainly …

The King’s Sleep
The vast golden plain, scorched by the heat of the sun, is slowly being covered by the starry mantle of the night. Silence descends… The only sound is the rustling of the dried grass, moved by the wind. Occasionally, however, another sound is heard. It is the roar of the …

Two Decades at the Service of Truth
Through the Word, God created the world in a succession of days and works: let there be light, let there be firmament, let there be man… (cf. Jn 1:1; Gn 1). From its origin, humanity was endowed by the Lord with the gift of the word, through which the sons …
