    The attitude of a child is the attitude of knowing you are incomplete, and need to grow, to change, to take the risk to be wrong.

    September 28, 2009 Caritas in Veritate The emphasis Jesus constantly puts on being childlike puzzled me until I read Carol Dweck’s great book Mindset. A child knows–perhaps without being able to articulate it–that she needs to change, learn and grow. A child knows his own incompleteness. As we ...read more

    The Horror Of Violence Series

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Nov 7, 2009
     | 3,915 views

    Jesus was, in fact, nonviolent, even when he used force to expel the merchants who desecrated the Temple. Violence is incompatible with human development.

    Feast of Dedication of St. John Lateran November 9, 2009 Let’s confront a misconception about today’s Gospel, and that has to do with Jesus and violence. What Jesus did to the moneychangers and pigeon salesmen who had coopted the Court of the Gentiles was to clean them out. He used force to ...read more

    God wants to help us move away from the margins (edges) of His love and continue to grow as close to Jesus as possible.

    Last Sunday I used a phrase that you may have heard growing up: do as I say, not as I do. Today I have another that would be just as bothersome: this is for your own good. God will do things we won't like but will be for our own good.
