Father Bayer: The evolution of worship Columnists

Father Bayer: The evolution of worship

Wednesday, February 1, 2023096 I read a wonderful book recently that I think lots of people should read, especially science-minded people: Vestige of Eden, Image of Eternity by Daniel Toma. Dr. Toma is a geneticist at Minnesota State University, as well as a wide reader of Catholic theology from both the eastern and western traditions.

Father Dankasa: Parents as family spiritual leaders

Friday, January 13, 20230215 As we come into a new year, many of us are contemplating how we’ll live in this new year. Many of us have made — or are still making — new year’s resolutions. As we all contemplate what our resolutions will be, let’s remember to allow the Holy Spirit to lead us in making our resolutions, and then to help us keep them. Make your...

Father Dankasa: My heart is God’s dwelling place

Wednesday, December 14, 20220283 As God lives in our hearts, we need to keep them clean so that we can hear his voice. A clean heart avoids places that pollute the mind; a clean heart speaks words that build, not destroy; a clean heart catches the tongue before it gets loose into profanity; a clean heart listens to others and is empathetic to others’ needs; a clean...

Father Dankasa: Why should we sacrifice?

Sunday, May 8, 20220109 The word sacrifice means several things. In a religious or cultic sense, it may mean “the offering of animal, plant, or human life or of some material possession to a deity, as in propitiation or homage” But in everyday usage it may mean the giving up of something that is considered valuable by one person for something of higher...

Saturday, February 5, 20220220 Catholic Schools Week (Jan. 30 to Feb. 5 this year) is a time to reflect on the gift of Catholic education and to support the many men and women who work so hard to offer that education to children throughout the world.

Father Dankasa: The courage to rescind a bad decision

Friday, January 14, 20220293 By Father Jacob Dankasa Special to The Texas Catholic In our lives there may have been times when we made a wrong decision, took a regrettable action, made the wrong choice, carried out an act in error, or made promises we were unable to fulfill. Those are moments that we may look back on and wish we didn’t have things like that in...

Father Gollob: With nativity, we have chance to see and celebrate spirit of season

Saturday, December 18, 2021071 One of the great traditions of Christianity was initiated in 1223 A.D. by the good saint, Francis of Assisi. He had been distressed by the religious indifference of his day. Christ had become a cold and foreign symbol to many of his countrymen.

Father Dankasa: Advent reminds us of John the Baptist as model of humility for our world

Friday, December 17, 2021088 In my last column I reflected on how we can live out our desert experience every day. I presented John the Baptist as a model for our own type of spiritual desert. He invited the people to the desert to have an encounter with God, to change their lives, to repent of their sins, and to abandon themselves to God (Mk. 1:1-11). This was an...

Father Gollob: A lesson can be learned from apostles’ differences

Wednesday, July 21, 20210119 Last month, while celebrating the Feast of St. Peter and St. Paul, I was reminded about the roles that these two Apostles played in the early Christian Church.

Father Esposito: Edith Stein — philosopher, convert, martyr, saint

Wednesday, July 21, 20210607 Few religious orders can match the Carmelites’ All-Star lineup for sanctity of life and brilliance of theological writings: John of the Cross, Teresa of Avila, Thérèse of Lisieux, and Elizabeth of the Trinity are the heaviest hitters in this illustrious branch of contemplatives. Equal to those great figures, in my opinion, is the...
