Little girl looking Dear readers, Catholic Online was de-platformed by Shopify for our pro-life beliefs. They shut down our Catholic Online, Catholic Online School, Prayer Candles, and Catholic Online Learning Resources essential faith tools serving over 1.4 million students and millions of families worldwide. Our founders, now in their 70's, just gave their entire life savings to protect this mission. But fewer than 2% of readers donate. If everyone gave just $5, the cost of a coffee, we could rebuild stronger and keep Catholic education free for all. Stand with us in faith. Thank you. Help Now >

Commentary: Narrowing the Gap Between Faith and Practice

Image of It’s time to narrow the gap between faith and practice. It is time for us to purpose a life that is formed by the teachings of the Church and enlivened by the work and power of God’s Holy Spirit, whom we received at our baptism and is ready to inspire and ignite us.

I’m guessing that most evangelicals are having a hard time figuring out what happened last weekend at Notre Dame. WASHINGTON (Catholic ... continue reading


The Holy Father's Vespers Message in Nazareth

Image of Here the eternally begotten Son of God became man, and so made it possible for us, his brothers and sisters, to share in his divine sonship. That downward movement of self-emptying love made possible the upward movement of exaltation in which we too are raised to share in the life of God himself.

The wonder of the Incarnation continues to challenge us to open up our understanding to the limitless possibilities of God’s ... continue reading

Jesus Called Her Mother

Image of Surely words could scarcely describe what it must have been like for her to look down at His little face and realize the mighty and sovereign Lord she bowed down to was now wearing the skin of her own flesh and nursing at her breast!  To be twice overcome with fierce and tender love; once as a mother for her child, and twice as a servant daughter of her Savior.

Reflection: The Feast of Joseph the Worker and the ‘Gospel of Work’

Image of Though there is biblical support that the toil and drudgery or 'sweat' of work is connected to the fracture in the order of the universe which was occasioned by sin (see Gen 3:19) work itself is not the punishment for sin. Rather, for the Christian, work becomes a participation in the continuing redemptive work of Jesus. He was always doing the work of the One who sent Him (John 9:3-4) and we are invited by grace to do the same.

To come to a new understanding of the dignity of human labor requires what St Paul rightly called a 'renewal of the mind.' CHESAPEAKE, Va. ... continue reading
