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 Bayer: Eucharist Columnists

Father Bayer: Eucharist

Friday, November 25, 20220117 You may know the Church in America is promoting a National Eucharistic Revival. After a few years of grassroots initiatives, it culminates with a major event in July 2024. Check out eucharisticrevival.org for details. Why have a revival? As the authors of the website write, “Our world is hurting. We all need healing, yet many of us are...
Father Bayer: The Art of Dying Columnists

Father Bayer: The Art of Dying

Friday, October 28, 20220229 I’m blessed to know medical doctors, professors and students who want to integrate Catholic faith into medicine. Such a desire makes sense, given how Catholicism assisted in many ways at the birth of modern medicine.
Father Bayer: Discerning the will of God Columnists

Father Bayer: Discerning the will of God

Thursday, September 29, 20220115 One of the most laudable questions I receive is about how to discern God’s will. A decision is easy to make when the choice is between something right and something wrong. But a decision can be difficult when the choice is between two goods and I have to discover the specific will God has for me. I recently read a great book on this...
Father Bayer: Spiritual direction from God Columnists

Father Bayer: Spiritual direction from God

Sunday, September 4, 20220210 Every moment becomes a kind of sacrament, so to speak, since the treasures of grace lie concealed beneath what is very plain and visible.
Father Bayer: Read this book on racial reconciliation Columnists

Father Bayer: Read this book on racial reconciliation

Thursday, July 14, 2022081 For a while, I have been studying the topic of race in American and Catholic history. It is a difficult topic for obvious reasons, but it is also a rewarding one. In fact, I have been greatly edified learning about figures like Venerable Augustus Tolton, St. Katharine Drexel, Servant of God Thea Bowman and others. If you’re looking for...
Father Bayer: Listening at the Dallas Synod Columnists

Father Bayer: Listening at the Dallas Synod

Friday, May 20, 2022076 Plans are well underway for the 2024 Synod — that big meeting to advise the bishop about the spiritual, material and administrative situation of the Dallas Diocese. Essential to its success are the “listening sessions” now taking place: two years of honest and charitable dialogue for the good of the Church and her mission in the...
Father Bayer: Faith in Medicine Columnists

Father Bayer: Faith in Medicine

Monday, April 25, 20220143 Our world needs Christian faith. A book that proved this to me regarding the medical field is Losing Our Dignity: How Secularized Medicine is Undermining Fundamental Human Equality by Charles C. Camosy.
Father Bayer: Wilderness and the Dynamics of Conversion Columnists

Father Bayer: Wilderness and the Dynamics of Conversion

Monday, March 28, 2022019 This Lent I’m studying the “wilderness” or “desert” in Scripture, and especially in the journey of Israel from Egypt to the Promised Land. The dangerous wild is a powerful image for the spiritual life, and it plays a large part in the lives of figures like Jacob, Moses, David, Elijah, John the Baptist and Jesus. What about in...
Father Bayer: But what is diversity anyway? Columnists

Father Bayer: But what is diversity anyway?

Thursday, February 24, 2022051 One of the shibboleths of our times is the word diversity. Our use of the word can easily signal our social, political and philosophical sympathies. It is ubiquitous in our culture, advertising and corporate life, and it is frequently portrayed as a moral value, one of the few claimed by our ostensibly secular society.
