The Wayward Catholic

"No temptation has overtaken you that is not common to man. God is faithful, and he will not let you be tempted beyond your strength, but with the temptation will also provide the way of escape, that you may be able to endure it. " 1 Cor 10:13

On June 5, 2012 By Paul RoyIn Faith, ReflectionsLeave a comment

Does God test us? We hear that expression quite a bit and commonly use it when something bad happens to us.I spend a lot of time driving which leads to much time reflecting on various subjects many of them of the religious nature. In the last year as I have begun my return to the …

Sunday Reflection: What I’ve Failed To Do

On June 3, 2012 By Paul RoyIn Faith, Reflections2 Comments

There is a phrase in the new mass which hits me hard every time I hear it. At the beginning of the mass, and I know there must be a proper term for it, we are asked to confess our sins. The Priest says, "For what I have done and for what I have failed to …

On May 29, 2012 By Paul RoyIn Faith, morality, PoliticsLeave a comment

An open letter to Jo Ann Nardelli, former Democrat from Pennsylvania:Dear Mrs. Nardelli, Welcome. It is good to finally see someone from the Democratic side of the aisle who isn’t afraid to stand up for something she believes in, even if it means having to resign her position. More and more we see Catholic Democrats …

Sunday Reflections: A Prayer A Day Keeps Satan Away

On May 27, 2012 By Paul RoyIn Faith, Uncategorized1 Comment

The subject for today's reflection is prayer. Something some of us do, and some of us don't. When we were kids we probably all spent at least a few minutes each night, kneeling by our beds, our mother sitting next to us, saying our prayers. In my case I seem to remember an "Our Father", a …

Why Happy Catholic Converts Make Me Sick

On May 26, 2012 By Paul RoyIn Catholicism, Faith3 Comments

I listen to a lot of Catholic radio since I spend most of my day in a truck and I have noticed that something. Most of these programs are wither hosted by or have guests who are converts to the Catholic Church. And they are all happy, all the time. I have nothing against happy people, …

Why Don’t Progressives Like Them Signs

Have you ever wondered why the Progressives are so adamant that there should be no public displays or signs regarding religion or religious views? Why do you think that is? Here is my theory.Yesterday I wrote about the fact it’s not the sinners that the church has a problem with, it’s the sins. I was …

It’s The Sin, Not The Sinner

On May 17, 2012 By Paul RoyIn Catholicism, FaithLeave a comment

In my last post I may have been a little un-Christian. I really need to not let my anger get the best of me as that is exactly what the left wants to do. So pretend yesterday’s post doesn't exist and let me start fresh.I was writing about the sign which was posted in front of the …

The Land Of The Free, Unless You Are Catholic

On May 16, 2012 By Paul RoyIn Catholicism, Faith2 Comments

Isn't it great that we live in a free country? We are free to do pretty much whatever we want, things like put up crosses with condoms hanging from them on out front lawns, advertising getting drunk, and well, all kinds of things.Well, it's free that is unless you are of the Catholic faith then …
