Recently I had one of those days where I couldn’t help but think, ‘Gosh, God really hears our prayers.’ Back in 2016 I did my first bible study.

Defending Our Faith with Kindness
Catholics out there, do you have a hard time seeing others talk poorly about Mary, the saints, our beliefs and teachings? I know I do.

May is the month of Mary. And as we approach the end of the month, I wanted to reflect on our Blessed Mother.

Listen to the Word of God, Not the World
How much easier would it be to listen to everything the world tells us? Life would be so much easier if we just went with the status quo, followed the societal norms, but that’s not what we’re called to do as children of God.

Mass: The Place Where I Feel at Home
You never realize how much you love something until it’s gone. In 2020, when Churches were closed, I realized how much I love attending Mass.
