Daddy Skills

Thought you might find this video of two rappers musing over one’s evolution into a dad amusing.
(Beware the word “damn” and one naughtier word implied, but not said.)


Pat and Mary Save Their Marriage!

innovative and entertaining therapy

I am really enjoying this new web series, Pat and Mary Save Their Marriage. In it, the funny and talented married couple Pat and Mary practice something they like to call “history therapy.” In “history therapy,” they look at famous couples’ life and love stories as inspiration for keeping their own love alive. The results are entertaining ... and surprisingly meaningful. Check it out for yourself and see.


Memorial Day Beauty

worth watching

I love this. These reunions never get old. Thank you so much to all the men and women who serve our country. (Click here for another view of this event.)


On Fire for Jesus

so inspiring

I might not be called to minister to orphans in Uganda, but this video has me motivated to live out my own vocation to the fullest. Who can I be Jesus to today?


"Why I Love Religion, And Love Jesus"

A fun and enriching video

Did you see this? A Catholic priests raps his response to the viral “Why I Hate Religion, But Love Jesus” video. It’s amusing and very well done - and he covers a lot of points in under three minutes!

For a longer and more complex commentary, this video response from Fr. Robert Barron is also worth watching.


The Christmas Story

as told by preschoolers

This is really sweet.


Turn Off the Noise

Seeking God in the Quiet


I am studying for my post master’s certificate at Holy Apostles College. One of the classes that I took this semester was Catechetics (with a dynamite teacher, Sr. Mary Anne Linder, FSE). This class was helpful and inspiring for all of us who are teaching CCD in the local parishes.

For our final project we had to read C.S. Lewis’s Screwtape Letters and rewrite one of the letters in a creative way.... READ MORE 


Hallelujah!

a sweet little video

I know we’re early in the Advent season, but this video is too good not to share. It’s the Hallelujah Chorus with a little help from a group of 5th graders in Quinhagak, Alaska. Enjoy!


Come Thou Long Expected Jesus

St. John's College Choir, Cambridge

Just a bit of Advent music to enjoy today! (And here’s a nice Advent YouTube playlist for more where that came from)


Harmonica in Carnegie Hall

Thankful for Small Gifts

There is so much to thank God for, things beyond count, from the sublime and solid facts of our creation and redemption, down to the smallest pleasures of life, like watching a sleeping baby or savoring a cup of tea.

At this particular moment, I am thanking God for the talent of the man in this video, which at once has me gasping in amazement and laughing. Rejoice with me over the fun and the beauty... READ MORE
