  • The Faith of the Canaanite Woman

    Today, we confront the walls that people build between one another and discover how faith can challenge prejudice, exclusion, and the tendency to decide who deserves to be heard. The encounter between Jesus and the Canaanite woman reminds us that genuine faith can cross boundaries and open our hearts to people whom society easily ignores.

  • Praying the Our Father

    Reflect, today, upon this perfect prayer, the Our Father. One temptation is that we can become so familiar with this prayer that we gloss over its true meaning.
  • The Transforming Power of Fasting

    Reflect, today, upon the importance of fasting and mortification of the flesh. These penitential acts are not usually desirable at first. But that’s the key. By doing that which our flesh does not “desire,” we strengthen our spirit to take greater control, which enables our Lord to use us and direct our actions more effectively.
