Posted on September 17, 2019September 17, 2019 by Msgr. Charles Pope The Church Is a Bride, Not a Widow Venerable Fulton J. Sheen once wrote, “The Church knows after 1900 years’ experience that any institution which suits the spirit of any age will be a widow in the next one” (War and Guilt, OSV Press, 1941, pp. 138-139).This is a clear admonition to the many who demand that the Church update her teachings, particularly (1) her moral doctrines, and (2) the dogma that salvation is exclusively through Jesus Christ. Some say that the Catholic Church is hopelessly out-of-date and...

Have you ever witnessed a miracle? Have you met a person who experienced one? Sure, I’ve experienced things that seem like they might have a supernatural component. Many to most of us probably have, at least at some point in a long lifetime. But I’m talking about the real deal. That is, something so extraordinary that you can’t quite explain it by normal physical means, nor can medical personnel. Something that is so stunning, that so defies rational-scientific explanation, that it actually gets taken up by, oh, the Vatican — which, in turn, takes the time to scrutinize it. I...

The fallen TV star is claiming he’s having a difficult time paying child support for four of his children. Court documents obtained by People magazine Thursday reveal the former “Two and a Half Men” star filed requests to modify his payments to ex-wives Denise Richards and Brooke Mueller. The 52-year-old, who shares two daughters with Richards, 47, and twin sons with Mueller, 40, insisted he can’t afford to make his monthly child support payments because he’s “been unable to find steady work, and [has] been blacklisted from many aspects of the entertainment industry.” The actor claimed he’s had a “significant...

“First of all, we are at the end of Christendom,” Bishop Fulton Sheen solemnly said during a television show in 1974. “Now not Christianity, not the Church. Remember what I am saying.” Then he defined what he meant. “Christendom is economic, political, social life as inspired by Christian principles. That is ending — we’ve seen it die. Look at the symptoms: the breakup of the family, divorce, abortion, immorality, general dishonesty.” That was 1974. Today we know it’s even worse with the definition of marriage and gender drawn into the picture. And the crisis within the Church. He reminded that...

The New York Supreme Court has just ruled that the body of Ven. Abp. Fulton J. Sheen can be moved from New York to Peoria, Illinois. This breaks the two-year deadlock between the archdiocese of New York, headed by Cdl. Timothy Dolan, and the diocese of Peoria, headed by Bp. Daniel Jenky, who have been in a battle over who gets the remains of the beloved TV personality so his cause for sainthood can advance. Recall: In 2014, Sheen's cause had come to a halt because Dolan was refusing to release the body, which lies in the crypt beneath St....

With FX’s fairly successful “The People vs. O.J. Simpson” miniseries about to wrap up its 10-episode run and ESPN set to debut an already-hailed five-part documentary about Simpson and the murder trial that drove a nation bonkers, we’ve reached the saturation point of televised O.J. Simpson reminiscences. Or so I thought.
