Everything we have is a gift from God, meant to be used to further His kingdom and serve our brothers & sisters. Yet too often young adults make excuses for not giving more ("I'm trying to save up!

Joseph, Paul and Lauren engage in this spiritual practice - and how they can improve in generosity!

The end is near! What does the Church teach about the end of the world? Can we know when it is coming? What are the signs that will herald Christ's triumphant return?

Joseph, Diane, Lauren, and Matt discuss the coming Apocalypse and the cry of every Christian heart, "Come, Lord Jesus!"

Joseph, Lauren, Diane, and Javier discuss the challenges of living out their Faith as young adults in the midst of a mixed-up world!

"The sports field is a field of virtue," said Pope St. John Paul the Great (himself an athlete!). Sports can develop virtues within us, along with being times of friendship and using our bodies to glorify God. At the same time, our culture often idolizes sports.
