  • Things we ought to give up for Lent

    A surface reading of Catholic blogs lately has made me ponder the purpose of these things. Since it’s Lent, I thought maybe all of us, bloggers or readers, could resolve to give up some things: The use of the phrase “put the smackdown on…” in reference to religious leaders. For example, “Pope Benedict or Pope…

  • Reconciliation Practicum, Day 1

    I heard my first “fake confession” in my Reconciliation Practicum class today. I have to say it was pretty scary, but also an awesome feeling at the same time. It brought me back to a time probably eight years ago or more now, when I was going through a crisis of faith. I thought seriously…

It had a lot to do with the topic of friendship and how God is incarnate in our friends — that’s just been on my mind and heart a lot lately, and this Gospel just really spoke to that. I can hardly believe it but we’re just now…

  • The Nature of Friendship

    One of my courses this quarter is called “Friendship and the Moral Life.” I just turned in the final paper for the class, and the introduction to the paper was a reflection on friendships in my life. I thought that those three paragraphs were worth blogging about… One of my great concerns about coming to…

  • What age do you act?

    http://www.blogthings.com/whatagequiz/ Well, people always tell me I don’t look my age. I always say it’s because I never act my age. Now I have proof: ***You Are 24 Years Old*** Under 12: You are a kid at heart. You still have an optimistic life view – and you look at the world with awe. 13-19:…
