Friday, September 19th, 2008We have received numerous questions lately as to Catholics United for the Faith’s affiliation with a group bearing a similar name.

Thursday, January 17th, 2008Yesterday I commented on the phenomenon of seemingly good spiritual fruit coming from questionable sources in the Church. Today, I would like to offer a few biblical observations to help us make more sense of this situation as lay Catholics. (1) As St. Paul writes, “Test everything; retain what is good” (1 Thess. 5:21).
