A trend I’m very proud of. — It’s been a slow journey, but by this summer the work I’ve been doing since August 2024 will finally be evident.

fx-upscale is incredibly fast. Very surprised by it.
“Wherever God comes with a promise, He expects faith to accept it at once.”
We thank God for two heaters this Sunday! Mass starts at 10:30a and it’ll be toasty.
“the fatherhood and the childhood of this earth hath a Divine and heavenly promise, and everything connected with it must with us be a matter of faith, a religious service holy to the Lord and well pleasing in His sight.”
Bohemian Rhapsody auf Deutsch is sparking joy in the Arnold house this week. I thought I’d share. youtu.be/PPGYqPQPX…
“In all our children hear us speak of others, of friends or enemies, of the low, the vulgar, the wicked, let the impression they receive be, the love of Christ we seek to show.”
“Work is the way love takes shape in the world. A father works to provide. A mother works to nurture. A neighbor works to repair what is broken. A farmer works to husband the soil. A teacher works to pass on wisdom. A carpenter works to make shelter. A church member works to bear burdens.”
“the question we had better be asking much more regularly, publicly, and with each other: to what image is our technology conforming us?”
“I don’t mean to suggest that either side believes in “nothingness,” but that they have accepted the premise that persuasion is impossible, power is everything, and the human person’s agency is irrelevant.”

I am excited for this edition! The other was way too big for actual use. I might get myself this for Easter.

“And of this Fatherhood the father of the family on earth is to be the image and the likeness. In the life he imparts to his child, in the image he sees reflected, in the unity of which he is conscious, in the loving care he exercises, in the obedience and the trust he sees rendered to himself, in the love in which family life finds its happiness, the home and the fatherhood of earth are the image of the heavenly.”

“Israel’s disobedience, though punished by exile, could not overcome God’s promises to the descendants of Jacob.”
“According to Kierkegaard, despair is the worst fate for a Christian. Death brings resurrection. Despair, however, brings a sickness that drives us deeper away from God without finding resurrection.”

“Wouldst thou like to live LLMiciously?”
I know the day will come when I’ll be “dad”, but there is no name that makes me happier than “daddy.”
I have this — probably annoying — habit where I refuse to call the collection of dioceses in communion with the Bishop of Rome the “Catholic Church.” As I see it, I’m “Catholic,” the Eastern churches are “Catholic,” etc. I use “Roman” as the adjective to describe that portion of the Catholic Church. E.g., “the Roman parish up the street,” “my friend is Roman now.” 🤷♂️
“Historically, the Church understood belief differently. Faith was never meant to be sustained alone.”
“Will ich wirklich führen oder will ich vor allem fachlich brillieren? Will ich wirksam sein oder Recht haben?”

“Recruiting standards and guidelines should be reformed to include the following guidelines: at least three quarters of a college’s team must be recruited from within a 500 mile radius, and all members of the team must be accepted to that specific college or university based on their academic qualifications.”
“In the end, mass-produced and consumerist entertainment is often boring, while local, amateur sports are endlessly interesting.”
