A Reflection for Monday of the Thirty-third Week in Ordinary Time, by Grace Lenahan

I am struggling to smile and nod and accept the message from well-intentioned people, whom I love, that everything will be fine, that I should trust in God, and not despair.

Pope Francis’ encyclicals have drawn from and lead to this truth: What the world needs is heart—not sentimentality, but integration, presence and fortitude to stay in the tensions of our current reality.

In faith, in love and in hope, Gustavo Gutiérrez gave everything to the present. The world is a better place for it.

Sometimes you have to leave home to find home. That’s the paradox of the immigrant experience, portrayed beautifully in “Brooklyn.”

Federico Fellini’s “La Dolce Vita” scandalized Italian audiences. But it was a group of Jesuit priests who were determined to offer a more nuanced interpretation of the film.

Martin Scorsese is leading one of the most elaborate projects devoted to the saints in recent memory. “Martin Scorsese Presents: The Saints” streams on Fox Nation.

A trip to Argentina shows not only Francis’ legacy here, but also the model of ministry that shaped him.

External realities are complicating the traditional structures on which parishes have relied for decades.

What I saw at the U.S.-Mexico border reminded me of the solidarity with migrants so often lacking in our country today.
