Golden wallpaper
July 29, 2006 | Leave a Comment
Here’s a beautiful, high resolution image that fits as computer wallpaper, sized 1024×768 pixels.

Miracle book
July 27, 2006 | Leave a Comment
An Irish psalm-book from 800-1000 AD. Quote of a quote:
“There’s two sets of odds that make this discovery really way out. First of all,
it’s unlikely that something this fragile could survive buried in a bog at all,
and then for it to be unearthed and spotted before it was destroyed is
incalculably more amazing.”
Pay attention to the [...]

Lifeguards of Jesus
July 27, 2006 | Leave a Comment
In a recent Open Book post, I was interested to read about the Lifeguards of Jesus, on a mission of evangelism, in Baywatch style t-shirts. On the beach. Said Fr. Vito, one of the priests involved, “Some people were a bit mistrustful and others were sarcastic. But in general the reaction was very positive.”Visit Mrs. [...]

July 22, 2006 | Leave a Comment
Today is the memorial to St. Mary the Magdalene. No shortage of Mary the Magdalene books around the world. But not as a saint, St. Mary is portrayed as some sort of sacred feminine with a gospel of her own.
A book I saw today, I didn’t even bother to remember the name, claims that Mary [...]

What is the value of private revelations?
While not belonging to the deposit of faith, private revelations may help a person to live the faith as long as they lead us to Christ. The Magisterium of the Church, which has the duty of evaluating such private revelations, cannot accept those which claim to [...]

Evangelism as a duty
July 20, 2006 | Leave a Comment
As I keep hearing about the Christian duty of evangelism, I return in my mind to my opinion of four years ago. At a meeting of a local Christian women’s group I attended (because it happened to have been held at my house), the ladies seemed to think that they should run around to the [...]
