All creation gives praise: Seeking God — and wonder — in cosmos

Leonard J. DeLorenzoAugust 31, 202511 min read
Wonder takes time; it is more than surprise and interruption. Wonder is a relationship of intimacy, where you find yourself in awe at something that is beyond you, which becomes more fascinating the longer you dwell with it.

Question Corner: Does the church ever use the word ‘divorce’ or does it only talk about ‘annulment?’

Revealing Leo

Michael R. HeinleinAugust 21, 20254 min read
As certain factions of the church who want to claim Leo for their “side” become increasingly anxious to see him start taking more decisive action on thorny issues, it’s clear that what we know most about him is that he is a disciple of Jesus Christ.

Question Corner: Why don’t bishops excommunicate politicians who support abortion?

Jenna Marie CooperAugust 20, 20254 min read
While the act of directly causing an abortion is a canonical crime that is punished with an automatic excommunication, (see Canon 1397, 2) this only applies in scenarios where a particular individual actually brought about an abortion personally — and not in situations where a person promoted abortion in a more abstract way.
