About CatholiCurrent
Welcome! Praised be Jesus Christ, now and forever. This site is brand new. CatholiCurrent tracks current Catholic events and issues, provides commentary from a Catholic perspective that is faithful to the Magisterium and offers a forum for respectful dialogue based on faith and reason. CatholiCurrent is also a resource to grow in knowledge of our Catholic faith. The name of the site is intended to reflect its focus on current events but also the movement, direction or "current" of the Church under the guidance of the Holy Spirit.
The tenor and focus of CatholiCurrent is to approach the challenging issues in the Church and world today with reason and logic enlightened by faith. Our attitude, commentary, analysis, blogging, documents and links must be geared towards building up the faithful, fostering good will, encouraging the pursuit of sainthood and Christian perfection in imitation of Our Lord Jesus Christ. In the end, whatever we do, we do it in the name of the Lord (cf. Col. 3:17) If we are not becoming saints, we are doing nothing.
There are many troubles in the world and Church today. It is easy to be caught up in the negative and even become preoccupied with the daily turmoil. The endeavor of this site is to address key issues in the Church through a faithful application of Church teaching in areas of dogmatic, moral, scriptural and mystical theology. My mission and prayer for you is that CatholiCurrent helps you in your spiritual journey towards an ever deepening union with God.
May the grace and peace of God our Father, and the Lord Jesus Christ and the communion of the Holy Spirit be with you.+
