We have to understand that we are going through different journeys. God is doing something completely different in our lives, and we must be attentive. Let us not be so quick to judge—everything is not as simple as it may seem. As we continue our journeys through life, we will constantly encounter our own and other people’s struggles, flaws, weaknesses, and even sins.
Many questions will come our way in our Catholic life, and in this episode, we’ll try to answer a few of them. Here is another one of our Hot Takes episodes that discusses essential topics most of us can relate to. In this episode, we’ll be going through the following topics:
- A Perspective on Differences Between Men and Women
- Free People, Free People
- Stuff Matters

A season of hope and of promises fulfilled. Expectant hope, with confidence that the Lord is good and is at work for our good…

Ending the Year Well
Our last episode of the year… a time that often means reflecting on the last year and looking forward to the next one. As you look back on 2021, there are probably loose ends — struggles, situations — that haven’t been resolved. It’s easy to wish that everything would just make sense, but sometimes it just doesn’t…

Jesus, Look At My Heart
Do you know anybody who wants to work out all of the time? Unlikely. But nobody who gets in that workout says afterwards, “That was a waste of time. Why’d I bother?” Even more with prayer. When you take the time, it’s always, “I’m so glad I did that.” Eternal perspective changes how you use your time. What are we made for? To live forever.
It’s key to commit to prayer; to schedule it and keep honor it through intention and discipline. But, then, how do we maintain prayer as an intimate relationship and not let it become a routine? The answer to one question: where’s your heart in it? Going through the motions to get it done is not the point.
