Father Esposito: How to Veer Off the Synodal Path

Friday, May 21, 20210228 As the successor of St. Peter, the bishop of Rome receives the command from Jesus to the first of the apostles as his own: “Strengthen your brothers” (Lk 22:32).

Father Esposito: The path of life in Psalm 16

Sunday, April 18, 20210111 The first Christian Bible study was held Easter Sunday on the road to Emmaus.

Father Bayer: Spiritual Direction

Saturday, April 3, 20210282 A healthy spiritual life is like a docile and trusting child happy to grow under a mother and father. In this image, we all need “spiritual direction” like we all need mothers and fathers, men and women ready to affirm, teach, console and challenge us. Like all good parents, our spiritual directors will aim above all to emancipate...

Father Esposito: Psychology and Care of the Soul

Sunday, March 21, 20210326 I am not a psychologist in the modern technical sense of the term. I have no training in matters dealing with the brain or nervous system, and I possess only a rudimentary knowledge of human biochemistry.

Father Esposito: True Enlightenment about the End

Father Esposito: Grace at Work in Infant Baptism

Friday, January 8, 20210270 I learned recently that the priest who baptized me, Monsignor Joseph Ferraro, died of Covid-19 on December 17. Father Ferraro was a Navy chaplain stationed in Oakland, California when my father was on active duty, and he de-heathenized me when I was a month old. I never met Monsignor Joe as an adult, but we exchanged emails several years...

Father Bayer: Judgment

Wednesday, December 16, 20200134 In Advent we meditate on the coming of Christ. Traditionally, we contemplate not only his coming at Christmas, but also his second coming at the end of time – his coming “in glory to judge the living and the dead” (as we say in the Nicene Creed).

Father Esposito: The Noble Truth of Advent

Saturday, November 28, 20200400 Christians look to the light of Christ, the true light that knows no darkness or extinguishing (see John 1:4-5), to irradiate the gloom of their own suffering. Our efforts to purify the weak and fluttering flame of our heart from the ravenous cravings of selfishness, lust, and greed dim the light we radiate to others, and can bring us to...
