Jubilee and Christ the Bridegroom – Series on Jesus and the Jubilee (Part 8)
Who do we belong to? God shows us that Adam and Eve were bride and bridegroom from the beginning. God holds an original identity, which is super important for the meaning of our lives as men and women, for the meaning of our lives as sons and daughters. The covenant of marriage is established in the garden as something deeply meaningful. It’s like a commentary on what we’re made for. We belong to God and each other. As part of our journey to restore our identities during this Jubilee year, we’re diving deep into Christ’s identity as the bridegroom.

Trust Is Hard for Everyone

The grace to trust — especially for the long haul — is always given to us by the Lord. There’s always human effort in the spiritual life, but it’s all gift; all grace. It can feel like we’re never…

Hot Takes 7
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 to that. 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. In our Catholic life…

Ordinary But Extraordinary (Rewind)
It is easy to fall into the temptation and believe that we can’t do it, that we can’t live a holy life. Although the ordinary life is simple, hidden, and seems kind of normal, there’s so much sanctity in our vocations that are being lived faithfully. It might not be flashy or spectacular but it’s one of the most real ways we can grow in holiness. We may not be in the chapel or church making a eucharistic holy hour, but no matter what our day-to-day experiences look like or what daily lives we are accustomed to, God is there.
