How guardian angels helped in the Bible and continue to help us today (opens the original)
Read excerpt
In the communion of saints — the Church, the City of God — we human beings are the minority. Christian teachers have long understood the Church to be the common dwelling of saints and angels. St. Augustine defined the City of God as including “the good, angels as well as men.” And the angels seem to outnumber us considerably. Jesus teaches that all God’s children have angels in heaven who watch over them (Matthew 18:10). Beyond these guardian angels, Scripture reveals countless cherubim, seraphi
This saint should be respected beyond simply being ‘the great name-caller’ (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Celebrities run the risk of imprisonment in their persona. No matter what they do, people already know how to frame the story. Their friends may accentuate the positive, their enemies the negative. But friend and foe alike will highlight the personality traits that are distinctive, the particular prodigies and the eccentricities. Alas for Jerome of Stridon, a man of the fourth and fifth centuries, whose prodigies were great, but whose eccentricities were prodigiously entertaining. The poet Phyll
How work was an original blessing from God (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Work was one of God’s original blessings. “The LORD God took the man and put him in the garden of Eden to till it and keep it” (Genesis 2:15). God made Adam, Genesis tells us, because “there was no man to till the ground” (Genesis 2:5). There was a job opening. So God created the perfect candidate for the position. Work, then, was not a burden that the Almighty placed on his most beloved creature. It was a blessing. Work was integral to the human condition in its original goodness; and so Adam a
Nathanael, aka St. Bartholomew: Creator of the first Gospel wisecrack? (opens the original)
Read excerpt
The Church honors the memory of St. Bartholomew on Aug. 24. The Gospel tells us so little about him, and — unlike Peter, John, James, and Jude — he left us no epistles to ponder. But he was one of the Twelve, specially chosen by Jesus, and like almost all the others he died as a martyr. So he merits our careful attention. The name Bartholomew is actually a designation of his parentage. It means “Son of Tolmai.” Tradition identifies the name with the apostle identified as Nathanael in St. John’s
How Mary’s assumption into heaven was God’s plan from the beginning (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Every Aug. 15, the Church celebrates the Assumption of the Virgin Mary — the proclamation that, at the end of her earthly life, God brought her body and soul into heavenly glory. Though Scripture does not narrate the event directly, the feast is deeply biblical. It stands as the culmination of themes that run through the whole of salvation history. The Old Testament prepares us for extraordinary departures from earthly life. Genesis tells us that “Enoch walked with God; and he was not, for God t
