Easter Sunday

April 4, 2021 | By Serena Puang, DC ‘22 + 1

Happy Easter! He is Risen! It has been our honor to journey with you through Lent for the past seven weeks. I hope that wherever you are: whether at home or miles away, whether on fire for God or burnt out, you can take some time today to reflect on the miracle of the resurrection and its implications.

An Appointed Place

April 2, 2021 | By Jeremy Begbie

Many of us are haunted by the memory of a missed opportunity. Near the end of Graham Greene’s novel, The Power and the Glory, an old priest sits in his cell the night before his execution.

And while I was not raised Catholic, I think that my convent years had a profound impact on my spiritual life, in little ways that really add up.

The God Burrito Paradox

March 30, 2021 | By Ben Colon-Emeric TD ‘22

Could God microwave a burrito so hot that He Himself could not eat it? Despite the inherent silliness involved with placing God in the same sentence as the word “burrito,” this is the basic paradox of omnipotence. As soon as you place your faith in an omnipotent God, you have to believe that God can do anything; but what about things that are logically impossible?
