When civilizations lose hope, they fall back on the same lie: “Eat, drink, and be merry, for tomorrow we die.” It’s an ancient slogan of despair, echoing from Babylon to Rome and still heard today. It reduces life to pleasure because it expects nothing beyond death. Paul answers with truth: Christ is risen, victory is real, and our labor is not in vain (1 Cor. 15:57–58). Man was not made for death, but for eternal life. Our purpose is to serve and glorify God and to enjoy Him forever.

In “Restitution,” Rushdoony argues that restitution stands at the very heart of Biblical justice, grounding both God’s law and Christ’s atoning work in the principle that wrongs must be made right. Scripture consistently requires offenders to restore what was taken often multiple times over so that crime does not pay, a standard fulfilled perfectly in Christ’s obedience and sacrificial death as restitution before God for His people. Where restitution governs, justice is stable and meaningful;

We reflect on Saint John Henry Newman’s costly conversion and why real faith often demands sacrifice, not comfort. Using Saint Paul’s words to the Galatians and Abraham’s trust in God’s promise, we ask what it looks like to follow Christ one step at a time. • Newman’s brilliance and the price he pays for truth • Paul’s argument that faith makes us children of Abraham • Abraham’s trust that begins with a promise • Newman's years of prayer, study, and conscience-led chan...

They gave what they’d never miss. She gave what she’d feel tomorrow. Heaven measures a gift not by its size, but by what’s left behind.

To a city filled with the power of Rome and the mystery cult of Cybele, Paul starts with the supremacy of Christ. Christ is the ultimate power in both heaven and earth, and the fullness of God is present in him. In light of these challenges, Paul prays first that they would be filled with the knowledge of God's will through spiritual wisdom and understanding. While knowledge may show us the way, it doesn't give us the power to actually walk the path, so Paul prays also that we would be filled with

Isaiah 55:8-11 (NRSV Updated Edition)For my thoughts are not your thoughts, nor are your ways my ways, says the Lord.For as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways and my thoughts than your thoughts.For as the rain and the snow come down from heaven and do not return there until they have watered the earth, making it bring forth and sprout, giving seed to the sower and bread to the eater,so shall my word be that goes out from my mouth; it shall not

Why are Catholics obligated to attend Mass every Sunday? The Catechism teaches us today about the centrality of the Sunday celebration of the Eucharist in the life of the Church. Fr. Mike emphasizes that Sunday Mass is at the heart of our worship because it is the participation in the representation of the Paschal Mystery.
