Heidie, a Catholic convert, did not kneel or see others kneel in the Protestant community she came from. The first time she saw a kneeler, she thought it was a footrest. But seeing another woman flip it down to kneel and pray opened Heidie’s eyes to a practice she thought extinct and found mysterious. For those of us who are lifelong Catholics, Heidie’s reflection on kneeling can help us see its sacredness anew. ... See MoreSee Less

Or “be perfect as your heavenly Father is perfect?” Or “go into the whole world and proclaim the Gospel to every creature?” Saint resumes are rarely short.
Yet over the years, I’ve come to see what I could not earlier: the yoke is the rest. To allow ourselves to be yoked to Jesus—to labor only with Him and for Him—is the ultimate rest. What does this mean? ... See MoreSee Less
