The story of a Greek Taxi Driver, a mysterious nun, and the wonder working relics of St. Ephraim of Nea Makri

…Contrary to what you are thinking in your mind, Jesus was not speaking about a camel fitting through a sewing needle.

…the entire Christian Church since the beginning, including the protestant reformers like Martin Luther and John Calvin, understood the importance and veneration that we should have for the Mother of God. Why is it lost now? What happened to this important part of our faith? That is a question that no one seems able to answer with any credibility…

In some cases, people cannot leave to seek out the physical and spiritual food their bodies and souls need.  This is especially for the men and women in the jails and prisons throughout our country.  Many of them are seeking to fill their spiritual needs but are unable to leave the deserted place where they live.  It would be easy for us to simply say, “Go somewhere else to get your spiritual nourishment.  There are too many of you behind bars for us to successfully minister to with our limited resources.”  Even though our response may seem practical, it is by no means Christian.
