Articles:Faith and Freedom: In praise of religious liberty - Robert A. SiricoThe first American president put his finger on an important difference between the role of religion in the U.S. and that professed and practiced by the likes of the Taliban.

Email This Article Faith and the Good News - Rev. Kenneth Baker, S.J.Since practically every article of the Nicene Creed — which we profess at Mass every Sunday — has been called into question and put in doubt in recent years by some theologians and intellectuals, I have thought it best to begin this series with a number of articles on the Creed. Let us start with the Catholic notion of faith. Email This Article Faith in the Church - Fr. Kenneth Baker, S.J.The Nicene Creed embodies our official profession of faith as Roman Catholics.

Email This Article Feast of Christ the King - Fr. Douglas PankhurstMy dear friends: This Liturgical year began on the First Sunday of Advent, and it ends today with the Feast of Christ the King. During the Liturgical year, we re-live the life of Christ and try to immerse ourselves in the kingdom he came to establish. It is right, therefore, to ask yourselves at this end of the year: "Is Christ more king of my life now than a year ago?" Email This Article Fidelity - Donald DeMarcoThe son of Lithuanian immigrants, Edward Krauciunas grew up in the Back of the Yards section of Chicago, which was well known for it knockdown-dragout toughness. Email This Article Finding Faith - SIGRID UNDSETSigrid Undset, who won the Noble prize for literature in 1928, explains freedom and authority as they concern a person’s relationship with the Catholic Church.
