Justice Cries Out

Martina Kreitzer — Wed, 06 May 2026 10:30:00 +0000

Something has been building in me for a while now. The Church has always had something specific to say about how power is used, how people are treated, and what God hears that the world tries to suppress. Justice Cries Out is where we go there together - no political packaging, no comfortable distance. Just the sources, and what they actually say.

Martina Kreitzer — Mon, 04 May 2026 10:30:00 +0000

When the Pebble Becomes a Boulder

Scrupulosity can be a gift. But mixed with the wrong temperament, it stops being personal holiness and starts becoming a standard imposed on everyone else.

They Never Stay for the Retraction

Martina Kreitzer — Tue, 07 Apr 2026 12:10:00 +0000

On detraction, calumny, and the reputation you cannot give back Friend, I want to talk about detraction and calumny – two Catholic teachings the Church takes far more seriously than most of us do on an ordinary Tuesday.

Unsolicited advice, opinions, theories, reactions…they’re all in […]

Becoming Salt and Light

Michelle Fritz — Thu, 08 Jul 2021 11:00:49 +0000

As the salt of the earth, we are called to “flavor” the world with Christ. What we say, what we do, and who we are should all glorify God and inspire others to seek out the Lord. Our “saltiness” is vital to making sure that God’s presence is felt by others.

Jesus, How I’ve Missed You

Anni Harry — Thu, 01 Jul 2021 10:00:00 +0000

As the wheels of this world turn again, and knowing some places are just now beginning to open back up, the question to ask isn’t about Christ’s role in our salvation history.

Rather, it’s whether or not we are prepared to be...
