Remembering the facts of death and Heaven gives us an even more pressing reason to learn to pray: We do not have an infinite amount of time. We are one day nearer Home today than we ever were before. I guarantee you that after you die you will not say 'I spent too much time praying I wish I had watched more TV instead.'

To worship a crocodile is better to worship yourself.

Faith and hope bring us through time but leave us at the doorstep of eternity. Only love goes with us inside.

Abortion is the insurance against that fate worse than death which is called a family. Our no-fault insurance has removed our responsibility for car accidents, and no-fault divorce has removed our responsibility for marriage accidents why should abortion not be our no-fault sexual insurance policy that removes our responsibility for sex accidents?

We do not do good works to get into heaven we do good works because heaven has gotten to us.

To those of you who would classify yourselves as conservatives I would say, meditate long and hard on Jesus' saying Whatever you do to the least of these you have done to me.
Peter Kreeft
Image
If a person claims to have met Jesus without being changed then they have not met the real Jesus.
Peter Kreeft
Image
The more we realize we are loved, the more ashamed we are not to love back. The more we sin as a violation of love, not just of law, the more powerful a motive we will have to overcome it. For sin is attractive to us (otherwise we would never be attracted to it) and can be cast out only by something more attractive.

We can't avoid reasoning we can only avoid doing it well.
Peter Kreeft
Image
Moral relativism says morality is relative, not absolute, I want to show moral relativism, in its popular form, is logically incoherent.
Peter Kreeft
Image
Our life here on Earth has as its purpose precisely to prepare for our eternal happiness. This world is a large womb. It is a 'test' as all opportunities are tests.
Peter Kreeft
Image
Every blade of grass is a blade of grace, a grace note in God's single Song. Nature is not blind and dumb. Nature is eloquent. Human science is blind and dumb if it does not hear this eloquence.
