| Ravens' John Harbaugh appears with ashes on forehead; Twitter reacts...Posted: Baltimore Ravens head Coach John Harbaugh spoke at the NFL Combine on Wednesday and he drew a lot of attention -- not so much for what he said, but for the ash cross on his forehead. Harbaugh apparently came from an Ash Wednesday service straight to the Combine. The reaction to the cross was almost immediate; some on Twitter wondering if he got into a fight... |
| The safest road to hell is the gradual one.....Posted: Satan does not want us to know that we are on the road to Hell. If we did notice, that would alert us and we might turn back. Much safer is the road that is paved with little unrepentant sin after little unrepentant sin. We might call these “venial” sins and on the surface they do not immediately take us away from God. However venial sins that become habitual... |
| What is the meaning of the 12 and 7 baskets left over from the feeding of 5000 and 4000?Posted: What is the meaning of the 12 and 7 baskets left over from Christ's feeding of 5000 and 4000 in the Gospels? The Evangelists often omit details but they always specify the numbers in these episodes. Christ speaks about this plainly. Clearly He expects His apostles and us by extension to make an [obvious] conclusion about these numbers... |
| What does it mean to be rich? The Catholic billionaire behind Tic Tacs and Nutella had the answer.....Posted: For some, the answer to the question “what does it mean to be rich?” is revealed every year in the Forbes magazine list of the World’s Billionaires. This list ranks the richest people on the planet, and in 2014, their collective wealth exceeded $6.4 trillion USD. Of those on the list in 2014, roughly 66% built their own fortunes... |
| Why more black parents are homeschooling their children...Posted: Marvell Robinson was in kindergarten when a classmate poured an anthill on him at the playground. After that, the gibes became sharper: “Why are you that color?” one boy taunted at the swing set, leaving Marvell scared and speechless. The slow build of racial bullying would push his mother, Vanessa Robinson, to pull him from public school in favor of homeschooling... |
| Archdiocese of Cologne reveals that it has $3.8 billion fortune, more assets than the Vatican...Posted: The Roman Catholic archdiocese of Cologne has published financial accounts, showing for the first time the full extent of its worldly wealth. The archdiocese has long been considered Germany’s richest, but exact figures weren’t known because the church never published its accounts. Documents posted on its website on Wednesday show Cologne had assets of €3... |
| A field guide to the ashes on your forehead.....Posted: Just in case you were wondering... |
| When Jesus talks about the 'unforgivable sin', what does He mean?Posted: Some time ago I had a bust up with a colleague. He walked into my office and insulted me straight up. It was real ugly. He accused me of stuff of which I was innocent. So I asked him to sit down. Although I was furious I said, “You have just insulted me very badly. You’ve said I am a bad priest and that I don’t care for my people... |
| Here's my take on the upcoming film 'Little Boy'...Posted: Last night in Dallas, our friends David and Lisa Fischers invited us to experience a prescreening of the film Little Boy. It was a great time and after chewing on it some, I'd like to share some reflections on the film. In 2006 I was able to have lunch with Eduardo Verástegui in Washington DC to learn more about his involvement with a movie called Bella ... |
