Christ came to save souls. But He allows us to participate in that amazing mission, through His grace and mercy - and eternal souls are truly dependent upon our faithfulness to Christ. Tune in to find the three ways we are called to cooperate with God in saving souls.

Any reputable historian can tell you that the Catholic Church has been the most influential organization in shaping Western Civilization. Much of what is good about our modern world has its roots in our Catholic Faith. Today, we discuss four ways in which the Catholic Church has changed the world!

Our faith is full of mysteries - the Trinity, the Cross, predestination vs. free will, the Eucharist, the problem of evil. But is "mystery" just a cop-out - a code word for "stop asking questions"? No! Mystery is necessary in faith because we worship a God who is infinite and unlimited, while our human minds are very finite and limited. Just as we cannot fit the ocean into a bucket, so we cannot fully comprehend the ways of God in our small minds. But this does not mean we should cease trying - let us always contemplate with love the mysteries of God, that we may discover His glories for eternity!

Many great stories feature the hero receiving a mystical gift with special powers, enabling him to overcome all obstacles. We, too, have received the mystical gift of the Holy Spirit, to aid us in our choices and in our needs - if only we employ this Divine Helper!

The whole Church, then, longs for the day when Christ returns in glory to bring about an end to the persecution, oppression, and evil that mankind has fallen into - let us be prepared to love Him!

So often, we focus on what we do - our activities, our achievements. But the deeper question is - who are we becoming? All of our work in the world is merely the work of hollow men if not joined to a rich interior life of love. Only if we become holy, allowing Christ to live and work through us, will this world find the salvation it desperately yearns for.

Is your life filled with peace? If not, perhaps it's because we are not anchored in the unchanging love of God. Only His love for us, and our love for Him expressed in prayer and obedience to His commands, gives the peace that the world cannot give. Stop striving for pleasure, convenience, success, and the good things of the world...and start experiencing peace in Him.

God promised that He would always be with us...but where is He? He is right where He promised - truly present in the Eucharist. But how can we feel Him or sense His presence at Mass? Tune in for five extremely practical suggestions of how to experience the presence of God in a deeper way at every Mass!
