About that brilliant and difficult saint who translated the entire Bible (opens the original)
Read excerpt
He was one of the first four men named Doctors of the Church. He created a Latin translation of the Bible used by Catholics since the fourth century. His extensive writings—commentaries, letters, and essays—influenced Christian thought during his lifetime and long afterward. But Eusebius Sophronius Hieronymus, now known to the world as Saint Jerome of Stridon (347-420), was also considered a bit of a curmudgeon by his contemporaries. He was notoriously thin-skinned about criticisms of his work a
Blessed Fulton Sheen, a new patron saint for writers? (opens the original)
Read excerpt
After decades of waiting, the famous and beloved Archbishop Fulton Sheen has finally been declared Blessed Fulton Sheen. For those who have missed all the online summaries of Sheen’s life, including this one, there are ways to find out more. One could read his autobiography, go to a museum containing his artifacts, watch a documentary about his life, or stream (via three different websites) his award-winning television series. However, in our justifiable excitement about an American being one st
On the holy life and remarkable intellect of Saint Robert Bellarmine (opens the original)
Read excerpt
On September 17, 1621, the Cardinal-priest Robert Bellarmine died in Rome. Why did Pope Pius XI declare him a saint in 1930? And why did the same pope declare him a Doctor of the Church in 1931? Bellarmine was born into a noble but relatively poor family in Montepulciano, Italy. When he was only twelve years old, his uncle was elected pope and became Pope Marcellus II. But that reform-minded pope didn’t have time to further encourage his nephew to become a priest. Marcellus died after only twent
The trials, miracles, and weaknesses of Saint John Vianney, the Curé d’Ars (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Saint John Vianney is known today as a great saint and a patron for parish priests and confessors. But he also suffered through many trials during his life, which can be overlooked if we focus solely on his reputation as a miracle worker. Jean-Baptiste-Marie Vianney (1786-1859) was baptized on the day of his birth, and his parents were poor peasants. John (according to the English spelling of his name) was child number four. John was four years old when the French Revolution’s persecution of the
What happens when you turn a Saint into a scapegoat? (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Everyone knows what a scapegoat is, but few realize that the word comes from the Bible. In Leviticus 16:20-22, Moses told his brother Aaron to take a live goat, lay his hands on the goat’s head, confess all the sins of the Israelites onto the goat, and then send the goat into the wilderness. Through this act, the goat would “escape” and bear all the transgressions committed by the community. While sending a goat into the desert to atone for the failings of an entire people may sound odd to moder
