After Dr. Mike Sirilla, one of the first writers and contributing editors of OnePeterFive, way back in the year of Jesus Christ’s reign 2014, was my good friend Dr. Peter Kwasniewski. I first sent an email to Dr. Kwasniewski years ago because I loved his writings on music at OnePeterFive (for example “Time to Start Your Library of Classical Music“). We corresponded on this potent topic for…

In the words of the singer Peggy Lee… The window she is broken and the rain is comin’ in If someone doesn’t fix it I’ll be soaking to my skin But if we wait a day or two the rain may go away And we don’t need a window on such a sunny day Mañana, mañana, mañana is soon enough for me. “Tomorrow” might work when it concerns household chores, but it’s dangerous concerning your spiritual chores.

On the evening of October 3, 1226, as his body yielded to death, Saint Francis of Assisi found his final words in prayer. His last breath was steeped in Psalm 141, which he recited with unwavering devotion.

Honestly speaking, I have always felt that too much attention has been given to the alleged concealment of a part of the Secret of Fatima, compared with the significance of the images contemplated inwardly by the visionaries.

Once again the great feast of St. Michael is upon us. Now, as with everything else in our Faith, there is a human, cultural, social, and political element to devotion to the great Archangel. At first this might seem counterintuitive – after all, many a Saint has lived and/or died for a political cause linked to the Faith. But if the Kingship of Christ has had many a human defender…

Without any doubt, many of you have read the statement above in the title of my article dozens of times. It is usually claimed that this sentence belongs to the secret of the La Salette apparition (1846). It is circulated by numerous websites of various origins, including some that claim to uphold Catholic Tradition. The Fatima Center also provides an English translation of the entire text from…

The shortening days give a certain urgency to the Epistle of the Eighteenth Sunday after Pentecost. St. Paul thanks God for the grace bestowed on the Corinthians, even as they await “the revealing of our Lord Jesus Christ” (1 Cor 1:7). That revealing…
