Deuteronomy, Chapter 17, Verse 18-20

18 When he is sitting upon his royal throne, he shall write a copy of this law upon a scroll from the one that is in the custody of the levitical priests. 19 It shall remain with him and he shall read it as long as he lives, so that he may learn to fear the LORD, his God, and to observe carefully all the words of this law and these statutes, 20 so that he does not exalt himself over his kindred or turn aside from this commandment to the right or to the left, and so that he and his descendants may reign long in Israel.

Alien Manifestations vs. Marian Apparitions Double Feature The Vice That Makes Men Quit - And How to Kill It

  SUMMARY OF THE VIDEO Alien Manifestations vs Marian Apparitions Core message: Fr. Donald Calloway argues that the modern obsession with aliens, UAPs, and UFOs is becoming a major spiritual distraction and even a deception in the battle for souls. He warns that the cultural excitement around extraterrestrial phenomena is pulling people away from the Gospel, the sacraments, and especially the messages of the Blessed Mother. youtu.be Key Points from the Video The alien/UFO craze is an “unholy distraction.” It diverts attention from the real spiritual battle and from the messages Heaven has already given through Marian apparitions. youtu.be Confusion and division are growing. The topic is becoming a wedge among believers, creating fascination, fear, and speculative thinking instead of prayer and discernment. youtu.be The Blessed Mother has already warned us. Fr. Calloway stresses that Our Lady’s messages—Fatima, Lourdes, Guadalupe, Akita—contain everything...

Thursday, June 4, 2026-Corpus Christi-Today if you can't make it to Mass or Confession-consider prayer to the sacred shoulder-an hours adoration-and spiritual Mass in honor of Corpus Christi

Day 2 - Sacred Heart Novena - "America Unites to the Sacred Heart of Jesus"   Corpus Christi, CCC, and Confronting Evil Corpus Christi is placed on Thursday because it recalls Holy Thursday , the night Christ instituted the Eucharist. Many countries move it to Sunday so the whole Church can participate, but the meaning remains the same: the Eucharist is Christ’s living presence among His people. The Catechism teaches that the Eucharist is the “source and summit of the Christian life” (CCC 1324) and that Christ’s sacrifice becomes present in every Mass (CCC 1366). Corpus Christi exists to proclaim this truth publicly—especially through Eucharistic processions. The feast confronts one of the oldest evils: the denial of the Real Presence . The video emphasizes that Christ remains with His people in the tabernacle and in Communion. The Church responds to unbelief not with argument but with adoration —carrying Christ into the streets as a declaration of His kingship. The ...

A Mortgage System That Rewards Marriage, Children, and Service: A Blueprint for American Renewal

-
Image
Introduction: What If We Rewarded the People Who Hold the Country Together? Every nation has to decide what it values. Some reward consumption. Some reward speculation. Some reward short-term gain. But what if America chose to reward the people who actually build the country? What if the path to homeownership — the heart of the American Dream — became easier for those who commit to marriage, raise children, serve their communities, defend the nation, and carry the weight of a lifetime of work into retirement? Imagine a mortgage system built around civilizational priorities , not bank profits: –1% mortgage rate for getting married –1% for each child born or adopted –1% for military service –1% for public service (teachers, nurses, first responders) –1% at retirement This isn’t a gimmick. It’s a demographic, economic, and cultural strategy — one that could reshape the country for the better. Let’s explore the positives, the challenges, and how such a system could help...

  Sun, June 14 — Healing & Trust Virtue: Healing & Trust Cigar: Balanced, resilient (Corojo) Bourbon: Elijah Craig Small Batch — warm, steady Reflection: Where does mercy restore me. “This mysterious valley was filled with innumerable souls, which, tossed as by a furious tempest, threw themselves from one side to the other. When they could no longer endure the violence of the fire, they sought relief amidst the ice and snow; but finding only a new torture, they cast themselves again into the midst of the flames.” Meditation: Healing begins where panic ends. Trust is the soul’s refusal to flee from the very fire that purifies it. The souls in the valley rush from flame to frost because they cannot yet believe that mercy is found in the wound, not away from it. Ask tonight: Where do I still run from the heat that would heal me. Where do I seek cold comforts instead of Christ’s steadying hand. Where does mercy want to restore me — if I would only stay st...

  Summary & Reflection on Confronting Evil 1. Evil is real, personal, and resisted through Christ’s authority The Catechism teaches that evil is not merely psychological or symbolic; it is a real, personal force acting through fallen angels (CCC 391–395). Christ’s victory over Satan is definitive, but not yet fully manifested, which means the Christian life is lived in combat (CCC 409). This frames every spiritual exhortation—whether prayer, deliverance, or moral vigilance—as participation in Christ’s own authority. 2. The Christian confronts evil first by obedience of faith The CCC roots spiritual warfare not in dramatic gestures but in obedience (CCC 144–149). Evil is confronted when a man submits his intellect and will to God’s revelation. This is the opposite of the devil’s rebellion. Where Satan says, “I will not serve,” the Christian says, “Speak, Lord, your servant is listening.” 3. The ordinary means of grace are the primary weapons The Church insists that ...

Receive the Plenary Indulgence on Pentecost Sunday Smoke in this life not the Next Virtue: Fire & Communion Cigar: Bold, spirited (Habano Maduro) Bourbon: High West Double Rye — daring, expansive Reflection: “What flame do I carry into the world?” Pentecost is the Spirit’s fire burning away fear and compromise. The Imitation warns that one hour of the next life’s purifying fire is harsher than a hundred years of penance here . Better to let the Spirit burn now — freely, cleanly, mercifully. Tonight’s smoke reminds me: I was made to burn with God, not for God. MAY 24 Pentecost Sunday Mary, Mary Help of Christians 2 Samuel, Chapter 10, Verse 19 When Hadadezer’s vassal kings saw themselves vanquished by Israel, they made peace with the Israelites and became their subjects. After this, the Arameans were AFRAID to give further aid to the Ammonites. God was with David, and he now defeats the Syrians and the Ammonites. The life of David was that of a warrior and this was...

  Smoke in This Life Not the Next Sat, June 6 — First Saturday (Immaculate Heart) Virtue: Shelter & Intercession Cigar: Mild, maternal (Connecticut) Bourbon: Larceny Small Batch — soft, enduring Reflection: Whose sorrow do I carry with Mary? Mary’s Heart is the shelter where sorrow becomes intercession. On this First Saturday, I take up one grief — mine or another’s — and place it inside her Heart, where tenderness becomes strength and wounds become prayer. Purgatory reminds me that love must be purified. Better to smoke in this life than the next. Let the burn of repentance happen now, not later. Immaculate Heart of Mary, teach me whose sorrow I am meant to carry today. Day 6 Sacred Heart Retreat Introduction to 2 Kings [1] First, we'll re-cap a few things about the two Books of Kings, as a whole. They're part of the Deuteronomistic history. What does that mean?"   Well, it means that the Book of Deuteronomy, and its religious legal code, help...
