Jesus Teaches Without Noise Of Words

Jesus needs neither books nor Doctors of Divinity in order to instruct souls; He, the Doctor of Doctors, He teaches without noise of words. - Saint Thérèse of Lisieux

The Catholic School System Could Be A Source Of Spiritual Dynamite

The Catholic School System could be a source of Spiritual Dynamite and until it is, the Catholic Church in America and all over the world is going to limp into eternity. Souls will continue to be lost and lives will continue to be broken.

The Problem Lies Not With Truth, But With One's Acceptance of it

Typically, Catholics are accused of being anti-intellectual and not being able to see the 'plain' truth, yet nothing can be further from the Truth! If not for the Catholic Church, the very notion of authentic education would not exist...(i.e. scholasticism, studying a series of effects back to its 'cause' namely God!) We must understand Truth is Truth! It is immutable...it just is! Once face to face with it, the active intellect must succumb, if not, the problem lies not with Truth but with one's acceptance of it (ego or false understanding, therefore 'error'). - Marco Mastro

Like the Twigs of Plants, the Young are Easily Influenced

Moreover the strongest support is provided not only to protect the young from evil, but also to rouse them and attract them more easily and gently to the performance of good works. Like the twigs of plants, the young are easily influenced, as long as someone works to change their souls. But if they are allowed to grow hard, we know well that the possibility of one day bending them diminishes a great deal and is sometimes utterly lost. - Saint Joseph Calasanz
