Combative and Serene Purity

Catholic hagiography and iconography present St. Anthony of Padua to us as an exceedingly placid man, a man whose orderliness of soul is even reflected in the harmonious folds of his Franciscan habit. Indeed, the invariable composure of his vesture is a type of seismograph of the orderliness of his …

The Devotion of the First Fridays of the Month - Promise of a Heart Ablaze with Love

Apparitions of the Sacred Heart of Jesus to St. Margaret - A Supplication from God
“I thirst” (Jn 19:28)! For centuries, Catholic piety has attributed a profound spiritual meaning to these words of Our Lord on Golgotha. They do not express merely the physical torment suffered by the Saviour, but above all, a mysterious plea for the souls He had come to redeem. Yes, the …

Gospel Commentary

Man Was Made for God, and Not God for Man

St. Otto of Bamberg - From Lucifer’s Chancellor to Christ’s Ambassador
Never in history has there been a more skilful lawyer than Our Lord Jesus Christ. Among the utterances of the Divine Master, some seem to have been specially crafted with an artist’s chisel or weighed with a pharmacist’s scale, such is the precision of the message they convey and the …
