Prayer is fundamentally a transformation of will, a lifting of the heart and will to God.
Peter Kreeft

Only saints can save the world. And only our own sins can stop us from being saints.

Of course the more you love the sinner the more you hate and make war on the sin, just as the more you love the person, the more you hate and kill the cancer cells that are killing the person.

Bad times make good people, as mountainous pressures make diamonds or as fire tempers steel.

Abortion is the insurance against that fate worse than death which is called a family.
Peter Kreeft
Image
No culture in history has ever embraced moral relativism and survived. Our own culture, therefore, will either (1) be the first, and disprove history's clearest lesson, or (2) persist in its relativism and die, or (3) repent of its relativism and live. There is no other option.

Every gift requires two freedoms: the giver's and the receiver's.

Money can buy everything money can buy, which is just a lot of stuff.

Like white light refracted through a prism and split into many colors, God's eternal love-nature, expressed through the prism of time, becomes God's multicolored love story. History is His story.
