One of the greatest - yet perhaps underrated - feasts in the Church is almost upon us - the Ascension. Click here to find out what the real focus of the Ascension is, and why we shouldn't underrate this great feast: bit.ly/43CSLE3

Pentecost is upon us! What many people don’t know is that, like so many other things in the New Testament, Pentecost didn’t just come out of nowhere. It's actually connected deeply to the Old Testament. Read more: bit.ly/43U47DX #pentecost #catholic #comeholyspirit

Saints' lives weren't just highlight reels, jumping from one great accomplishment to the next. They had to deal with the monotony and drudgery of life too. It's how they approached those everyday travails that made all the difference. Watch the podcast: youtu.be/JoSAsvvT7rI

The spiritual greats call humility the "Queen of the Virtues" because it feeds and empowers the rest of them. And there's a deeper secret power of this queenly virtue that, once understood and employed, can radically change your whole spiritual life.

Let's be honest, it's hard to stay focused in prayer. Distraction is the number one problem people have when trying to connect with God. The good news is that there is a sure-fire way to severely diminish distraction and keep our focus squarely where it belongs during prayer.

My first thought was, “I’m not old enough to get an award.” Guess I was wrong:). I was so honored to receive the “Defender of the Faith” award by the wonderful people at Fullness of Truth during their gala conference . Teaching the Catholic faith is a privilege. Thank you, Lord.
