  • Aflame 115 - Things That Go Together
    Sep 15 2024

    Like salt and pepper, lightning and thunder, Romeo and Juliet, so Faith and Works should always go together.

  • Aflame 114 - Assumption Homily - Body on Earth, Soul in Heaven
    Sep 11 2024

    When Mary lived on earth, her mind and soul were already in Heaven - desiring God, living holiness. Because of how her desire for God consumed her entire being, it is fitting that her immaculate body would partake of the divine life of Heaven that she so ardently longed for. We, too, while we live on earth, can live with our hearts in Heaven - so to be prepared for our own bodily resurrection at the end of time!
