Acting on faith doesn’t always mean hoping for the best. It might mean preparing for the worst.

God’s presence doesn’t always give us security, but it does offer us shade.

For some of God’s people, a crowded land is a hope fulfilled, a dream come true.

On this Feast of Stephen, we celebrate not only the first Christian martyr, but the first deacons.

Our gospel today describes a common controversy: what to name the baby.

The faith of those who, like Thomas, saw Jesus in his lifetime goes only so far.

Sometimes a millennium takes longer to wait for than to live through.

For Christmas this year, consider getting God some better tools.

At the end of the calendar year, the season of Advent helps us prepare for all kinds of last days.

It’s worth investing some spiritual energy in praying that we never have to face the harshest tests of our faith.
