Put away childish things

I find that I need a reminder like this (video below) every day. Something to remind me to take life a bit more seriously sometimes. Stop acting like a child. So many of us “adults” these days just act like children our whole lives. It’s pathetic, really. It’s mostly little things. Like not getting up [...]

mother's day

I was reminded of this gem from a great Mother’s Day article: “A Christian mother cannot claim the honor of having built Notre Dame Cathedral. She need not.

Post image for 5 Things a Father Can Learn from St. Joseph

Today the Church celebrates the Solemnity of Saint Joseph – the foster father to Jesus Christ and husband of Mary.

Post image for Got Patience?

I recently found a neat website: Values.com. They have a lot of great little TV spots promoting the universal values that just make life better. Good stuff. One video in particular stuck out to me as a father. It’s called “Wet Cement” and has to do with patience (one of the 12 fruits of the [...]
