Charity in Truth

How church teaching can help explain why ‘Black Lives Matter’

July 30, 2020
By Archbishop William E. Lori
Filed Under: Charity in Truth, Commentary, Feature, Racial Justice

The words “Black Lives Matter” ought to remind us that every Black person is made in God’s image and is endowed with inviolable dignity, from the moment of conception until natural death.

Mother Lange – pray for us

July 7, 2020
By Archbishop William E. Lori
Catholic Review
Filed Under: Charity in Truth, Commentary, Racial Justice

It is a good time for us to remember the blessing we have here in Baltimore by turning to Servant of God, Mother Mary Lange, as never before.

Silence in the domestic church

June 12, 2020
By Archbishop William E. Lori
Filed Under: Charity in Truth, Commentary, Coronavirus

For a parish church to be a place of prayer, there have to be times of silence. For a domestic church to be a place of prayer and formation, there also needs to be periods of silence.

An inward pilgrimage with Mary

May 14, 2020
By Archbishop William E. Lori
Filed Under: Charity in Truth, Commentary

May we indeed persevere, in this and in every time of trial, so that one day we may reign with Christ in the presence of Mary Our Queen.

Fear itself

April 2, 2020
By Archbishop William E. Lori
Filed Under: Charity in Truth, Commentary

So often in Scripture Jesus says to his followers and to us, “Be not afraid.” He’s not asking us to ignore our problems or neglect our loved ones or deny our feelings. He is inviting us to rise above our feelings of fear, to encounter the greatness and glory of God, and in a spirit of humility and contrition to open our hearts to him, perhaps as never before.

Forgive us our trespasses

March 5, 2020
By Archbishop William E. Lori
Filed Under: Charity in Truth, Commentary

Sin is a wound in the heart of an all-loving God. This should bring home to us the enormity and preciousness of God’s gift of mercy.

Spiritual combat

February 24, 2020
By Archbishop William E. Lori
Filed Under: Charity in Truth, Commentary, Lent

A badly exaggerated “can-do” attitude is symptomatic of the sin of pride that played such a devastating role at the dawn of human history.

Another family to celebrate

January 4, 2020
By Archbishop William E. Lori
Filed Under: Charity in Truth, Commentary

I’ve been asked many times if I have inherited their good genes. I don’t know about that. I do know that mom and dad have given me an even more precious inheritance – the gift of life, the gift of faith and the gift of good example.

Supreme joy and a divine gift

December 12, 2019
By Archbishop William E. Lori
Filed Under: Advent, Charity in Truth, Commentary

Those who possess true joy are not deterred by their problems, by distress or by deprivation – their own or that of others.

Scatter the darkness

November 7, 2019
By Archbishop William E. Lori
Filed Under: Charity in Truth, Commentary

As the days grow darker, both cosmically and metaphorically, the encouragement of the Holy Spirit shines forth with renewed clarity.

When life is turbulent, pray

October 3, 2019
By Archbishop William E. Lori
Filed Under: Charity in Truth, Commentary

Turbulence is an unwelcome experience, but it also serves a purpose. It reminds us that we really are flying 35,000 feet above the earth, and that’s not without risk.

Communicate with integrity

September 1, 2019
By Archbishop William E. Lori
Filed Under: Charity in Truth, Commentary

Winning an argument or venting on Instagram, Twitter or Facebook are not good reasons to muckrake, to search out and publicize the faults of people one disagrees with.
