Aflame 201 - Your Mission Is the Church's Mission

Aflame 208 - The Deception Against the Eucharist

The Evil One has always tried to destroy the Eucharist. In times past, it involved the closing of churches or laws forbidding Mass. But he is wiser now, and uses the distraction of Sunday sports and activities to separate good Catholics from the sacramental graces of the Eucharist. It is time to push back on the sports leagues and stand up for our right to prioritize Jesus Christ in His Eucharistic presence!

Aflame 207 - God the Father

We call God "Father" because He fulfills the roles of a Father: to protect, to provide, and to lead. Those who have not had good earthly fathers can look to God to provide the Father they lack; and men are called to make present the love of the Heavenly Father to the spiritual or physical children they beget!

Aflame 206 - Eager Expectation

Much of the Christian life is waiting in eager expectation, because many of Christ's promises are not fully revealed yet. The promise to hear our prayers, the promise to make us holy, the promise of His final triumph are ongoing prophesies that unfold in our lives. So we must wait in hope, as the Apostles eagerly expected - and soon saw - the coming of the Holy Spirit in ways they could never have foreseen!

Aflame 205 - We Believe, But We Doubt

The Apostles doubted the Resurrected Christ because it was so extraordinary they couldn't understand it. But we doubt Christ because our Catholic Faith has become so ordinary, hum-drum, average that it loses its power to transform. Let us consider, not only what we believe, but the consequences of this belief - that it may shock us with its extraordinary, transformative way!

Aflame 204 - A Better Way to Live

The world offers us the standard American Dream - but Christ offers us a better way to live. This means, however, that we have to reject the lies to find the Truth of Jesus Christ - but in doing so, we find a happier and more joyful life than we could ever imagine!
