Eucharistic Revival I
I have to admit it. The first time I came across the term “Revival” was after moving to the U.S. nearly a decade ago and mostly in Protestant circles. I might be wrong, but in my experience, it seems that here in the U.S., our evangelical brothers, more than mainline Protestants, are the ones who are more interested in… Continue reading

The hard road of Christian Unity
Over the last year, I have been settling into words some of the many experiences I have lived through until the present day regarding the interactions between different Christian traditions, particularly between the Catholic Church and Protestant Christian denominations. I have poured my heart, my experience, and my knowledge into service of my call to… Continue reading

Counterculture: Tolerance for evil is not a Christian Virtue
We have seen since October 7th, 2023, the unleashing of global antisemitism and anti-Israeli hatred politics. At the same time, Christian persecution has escalated globally. In both cases, radical Islam is behind, supported by the demonic deconstructivism promoted by the woke culture and radical political agendas. Christian persecution is nothing new. It has been like… Continue reading

The Counterculture: The Attack Against the Holy Church
“And so I say to you, you are Peter, and upon this rock (Kēpa) I will build my church, and the gates of the netherworld shall not prevail against it” (Mt 16: 18). These are the words of Jesus Christ when He established the Holy Church, establishing it over Peter and stating that the powers… Continue reading

The Solemnity of the Annunciation of the Lord
Our Lord is Risen, Alleluia! According to the Liturgical Calendar, we celebrate the Annunciation, that glorious moment in the divine plan of salvation, the fiat, the ‘yes’ of the Blessed Virgin Mary. I know that the topic of the Blessed Virgin Mary divides the Roman Catholic and Orthodox traditions from the Protestant ones. But, if you,… Continue reading

He is Risen!
Our Lord is Risen, Alleluia! On a Sunday of Glory, Resurrection Sunday, or Easter Sunday, just like two days ago, our Lord rose from the dead. The Resurrected Lord and King spoke directly to Mary Magdalene on a resurrection Sunday. At first, she did not recognize him, but after a few words, she did. She… Continue reading

Holy Week: Holy Saturday
On a Holy Saturday like this, our Lord was dead. According to the Apostles’ Creed, “he descended into hell.” I do not know in your part of the world, but as for mine, today it is raining. It is a dark, rainy day. It feels sad. It feels like a mourning day, and I, together… Continue reading

Holy Week: Passion Friday
Passion Friday. On a day like today, 2000 years ago, our Lord surrendered his life for us. Let us contemplate our Lord’s last hours in another contemplative and imaginative prayer. Last night, after the end of the Passover meal, our Lord rushed to the garden of Gethsemane to pray in agony. What a bitter irony.… Continue reading

Holy Week: Wednesday
Wednesday of the Holy Week. Allow me to do a reflection or a contemplative prayer, an excellent practice I learned from the prayer app—Hallow during the Lent devotional. Our Lord walks in Jerusalem. He goes back to his Father’s house: the Temple. There, he teaches. Just like decades before, surely, he was using the habitual… Continue reading

Holy Week: Monday
On Palm Sunday, we celebrate our Lord’s triumphant entry into Jerusalem. The narrative of the Passion—as its name suggests—jumps directly to the Last Supper and the Passion per se. But what happened in between? Where was Jesus? What did He do? Part of it is a mystery, but today, Monday, the story of when Jesus… Continue reading

As a catholic Christian, my endeavor is answering a call to serve tearing down differences throughout Christianity.
