Spiritual direction

Spiritual Direction and growth helps us to be close to God.  This gives peace and wisdom.  We are all are busy with work, family, entertainments, children, social pressures, etc.    We tend to forget to take time to spend time with God.  We perform better in all aspects of life and have life in abundance as our Lord Jesus promised us.

What is Spiritual direction and growth?

 

When we dedicate one of hour every month to share our spiritual life with someone who is trained in spiritual direction, we can avoid blind spots in our spiritual journey.  This helps us to take action and make subtle adjustments in our spiritual course.

 

Interior Peace

Often, when life’s events break our hearts, we are ashamed of our anger and pain. We apologize for angry words and stifle cries of pain, pushing our hurts out of sight. We try to make peace with ourselves without acknowledging our anger and our tears—somehow these seem unacceptable to us. But they aren’t unacceptable to God.

Why Pray? How to Pray? What is Rosary?

Praying is like gardening: the growing of something alive—in this case, alive for eternity. It is gradual, and it is invisible, but it is the difference between life and death.
Prayer is plant food. This plant—your soul—is going to be transplanted at death into an immortal, eternal garden.
Learning to pray is dress rehearsal for eternal life. What you do when you rehearse a play is actually to practice it, to do it; and what we do when we pray is actually to practice what we will be doing in Heaven.

Why a Faith Community?

The word politics triggers a bad taste in our mouths. 

Aristotle famously said, “man is born for citizenship.” Rooted in the formation of the Hellenistic city-state, the polis, classical thinkers believed that the city was the common good, and politics was the “master art” or “master science” in search of this shared good. Politics was a comprehensive philosophical, religious, and moral endeavor. Whatever served this highest good was what was considered virtuous. And yet, for all such grand talk of a comprehensive vision of the good life together, Aristotle could not have imagined the scale of geo-politics today. The “public thing” (politeia) for Athenians like Aristotle was neither national nor global. The Western political imagination begins not with the image of a vast empire but with the image of citizens participating intimately in the life of a relatively small city: Athens.

Whatever became of sin...

In 1973, the world-renowned psychiatrist Karl Menninger wrote a book entitled: Whatever Became of Sin? In his book the doctor projected the day would come when sin would no longer be an element of the human vernacular. He speculated that the explanation of sin and wrongdoing would be replaced by rationalizations excusing individual accountability.
