It’s very hard to justify sitting by yourself watching television when the woman you claim to love is working her fingers to the bone for your benefit.

I’m concerned about the spirituality of the ‘Christian’ community because I rarely hear a description of being ‘born again’ accurately describing what I’ve come to believe the Bible teaches about Christianity, and it occurred again recently when I read a line from Mitch Finley’s recent ‘Ask a Catholic’ article; "Are Catholics Born Again."

The big question, for me, is who would people be most likely to ask for more information…someone who had gone on record as saying something was undeniable or a person who clearly stated their opinion but was willing to listen respectfully to any questions others might have?

As a Christian, justice, mercy and grace are significant parts of my spirituality but they are also concepts familiar to many in our culture. Justice delivers what we deserve while mercy keeps what is due at bay. Grace is off the charts compared to both; it freely provides the good we don’t merit.

I’m concerned that people in my spiritual circle, and others, support a southern border wall because their leader, the President of the United States, says we need it.

If a friend’s family is being adversely affected by their greed, overly critical spirit, selfishness, or lack of commitment, helping them move toward solving their problem might be an appropriate act of love. So what was I to do about the depiction of two married men?
