Growing with God after Christmas

January 8, 2019 / Justin White / Leave a comment

"Sometimes we think there is one perfect formula for connecting with God and only one way in which we can have a relationship with Him, but that’s not the case.  He created us to be unique and therefore we all connect in unique ways to our Father."

Sharing Our Treasures with Christ

December 19, 2018December 19, 2018 / Justin White / Leave a comment

We all enjoy showing our loved ones just how much they mean to us, but what about Christ?  Do we show Him the same love and share with Him our treasures the way we do with our friends and family?

Conflict, Silence, and Suffering: Meeting God During Advent

December 11, 2018December 19, 2018 / Justin White / Leave a comment

I encourage you this Advent to prepare for the coming of our Lord by avoiding comfort and complacency, embracing silence, and allowing your suffering to be redeemed, to truly make yourself open and receptive to God’s word.  Enough distractions.  Enough avoidance.

Preparation Through Prayer & Penance

December 3, 2018December 19, 2018 / Justin White / Leave a comment

"This Advent, instead of falling once again into the endless cycle of preparing for the day of Christmas and not the season of Christmas, let us yearn to prepare our hearts and souls for the coming of Christ, and to use these days as days of penance and prayer, so we are ready to meet the Lord when He comes."

The Meanness of the Cross

November 3, 2018November 3, 2018 / Justin White / Leave a comment

To see Jesus as the “ultimate nice guy” serves as a stumbling block in our discipleship.  We preach Christ crucified: bloodied, beaten, coarse, and raw, rudely thrown up on the mean and cruel execution device of the Roman Legions.  We must learn to be like Christ through His Cross and our crosses as well.

Why I Stopped Dating for Nine Months

October 10, 2018December 3, 2018 / Justin White / Leave a comment

"While we give up dating during the fast, that’s not actually the point.  The point is to come to know and fall in love with Jesus in a deeper and more personal way."

How God Evangelizes

"If there is one clear action item you can walk away with from this post, it’s this: talk less, ask more." Check out the first of our new monthly series of blogs by young adults breaking open the Scriptures!

Faith Smiles

September 10, 2018December 3, 2018 / Justin White / Leave a comment

"Like you, my faith has a story, and I'm happy to share it with you here."

What do we believe about Suicide?

June 8, 2018September 25, 2018 / Justin White / Leave a comment

To judge the state of a person's soul as irrefutably being in Hell because their death was self-inflicted is unacceptable.  Instead, we are called to not only join with the Communion of Saints in praying for their repentance and salvation, but to offer ourselves in support of those the individual left behind.

“Gaudete Et Exsultate”: A Cure for Blandness

May 8, 2018September 25, 2018 / Justin White / Leave a comment

Pope Francis says in "Gaudete et Exsultate" that you (yes, YOU), are called to be a saint. But how? By not being bland, by not relying on yourself, and by remembering the saints.
