Choose Jesus and Build a Better Society
by Nan BalfourARTICLE – Societies built on unlimited choices or no choice for their members are doomed because humans are created by God to be both ordered and free. Is there a way for humans to build a healthy and sustainable society? Yes, and that way is in allowing individuals within a society to freely…
Blessed Virgin Mary, the Mother of God
by Deacon Tom FoxARTICLE – The fact that Mary is the Mother of God also defines her role in God’s plan of salvation for humanity. Her purpose was not ended with…
Benefits of Morning Prayer Lead Us to Surrender to God
by PCH Media ProductionARTICLE – There are many benefits to morning prayer; the more you include prayer in your mornings and throughout the day, you will realize its numerous benefits. Let’s look at three particular benefits. First, we can…
When I Surrender, I Win
by PCH Media ProductionARTICLE – I pretty much went through life thinking that is what surrender means, being defeated, being weaker, and giving up, the other opponent or life circumstance wins. That was until one day in 2001, when I was beginning my faith journey, that I…
The Wonder of Mary’s Yes
by Nan BalfourARTICLE – Did Mary ask herself at the Annunciation, “What will be required of me? How will my life change? Can I do this? What if I fail?” Her prompt response indicates no, and I believe this is because she at some time before her Annunciation made a choice to believe that what God promised through Scripture would come to be.

Don’t Celebrate Christmas Just Yet?
by PCH Media ProductionARTICLE – Advent is a time to remember that, at a certain point in history, Christ was not born yet; we were waiting for Him. Anticipation, fear, excitement, and hopefulness, are all emotions we can imagine feeling during that period. These are…

by Deacon Tom FoxARTICLE – If you asked people if they believed they were going to heaven, they would say yes. However, Jesus says only those who do the will of His Father will enter heaven. How do you know what God`s will is?
The Prodigal Son’s Older Brother
by PCH Media ProductionARTICLE – For years, I identified with the older brother. I felt sorry for him, and felt that the Father was a bit unfair in basically taking the younger son back in just like that—no penance, no penalties, nothing but a new ring, sandals, and robe, and a great party to welcome him back. Then I had children and found…
The Love You Had at First
by Nan BalfourARTICLE – Are you finding it really difficult in this day and time to live the joy-filled zeal of being a Christian? This was becoming a problem for the early Church as well. In the vision our Lord gave to John that we have come to know as the Book of Revelation, Jesus addressed…
What Will Heaven Be Like?
by PCH Media ProductionARTICLE – The question of ‘What will heaven be like?’ starts to be asked at a very young age, and continues to make us wonder throughout our lives. Perhaps we compare it to a physical space on earth, or connect it with fond memories we shared with others. As we grow older, we come to realize that…
