Andre was a simple and unimpressive orphan who opened the door for Jesus. A million people came to his funeral. Do you open the door to Jesus and to Jesus present in your neighbor?

God has come today to make it possible for us to become the greatest thing we could ever be. How powerful are children? Ask the Grinch!

He comes to turn the hearts of fathers to their children, and the hearts of children to their father.

Mary knows! Her Son, the Key of David is coming. Does He have permission to unlock you into new freedom?

The most important word in salvation is little and easy to miss. What could happen if we lived it?

Are you happy? Why or why not? Lift up your hearts! Gaudete! He is near.

Listen, hear, respond. Mary never stops doing these things. Mary has always helped the Church listen, hear, and respond to what Her Son says.

There is none greater than John the Baptist…yet the least in the kingdom is greater than he. We are not exactly impressive, but we are so privileged and loved.

We first prepare the way by getting out of the way!

The largest conversion in history happened through one of the littlest saints in Heaven. Do you strive to be little?

It's because of her that all this has happened! Will you also say “yes!”?

It's because of her that all this has happened! Will you say “yes” too?

Who is this who draws near? What is He coming to do? How should I respond?

Blessed are the eyes that look at Him. Are you looking at Him? From now on these eyes will not be blinded by the lights…look at Him and come alive!

The centurion believed in the power of God's spoken word. Do you?

He has come in history, He comes today through His Church, and He will come again at the end of our story. Wake up! He is near.

Our first responsibility is to say “thank you.” The highest and greatest way that we do this is by celebrating the Eucharist.

Can you rightly call yourself a martyr? Martyrdom originates at the level of the heart.

Even martyrs have clay feet. They just don't move them.

Do you see Jesus or yourself? Long live Christ the King.

Jesus weeps because His people do not notice where peace is found and they have missed the time of their visitation.

The nobleman entrusts to us great treasure, and he expects us to give it away that it might grow.

St. Rose was known by the people she served as “the woman who prays always.” In order to take the gospel to the nations, we must first let it penetrate our own minds and hearts.

Bartimaeus knows that he is blind, he knows that Jesus is passing by, and he knows what Jesus can do for him. Jesus, would you help us see?

There is a cost to following Christ. By your perseverance you will secure your lives.

The Word of God will stand forever. Am I listening? There is nothing more important than listening to and moving with the Word.

Saints see beyond themselves. This is necessary for those who are instruments of unity.

St. Martin glorified God both in life and in death. “I will bless the LORD at all times.” Do you mean that?

Aslan lives and he is on the move. What could happen if there were a few more Leos in the Church today?

A celebration of unity; why being united with Peter matters.

The Good Shepherd comes not for our prestige but for our pain. He comes to make the unimpressive great. Do you believe that the Good Shepherd loves you, and that He desires to do the heavy lifting in your life?

Only one thing or person can come first in our life. Who/what comes first in yours? Christ commands us to love Him and our neighbor. What if He meant your literal neighbor?

Healing always comes from within, and the body can heal itself when its members remain connected to it. Such is the case for the Church and her members.

Jesus can do far more with my poverty than my generosity; He can do far more with my littleness than my talents.

Why does the Church pray for the dead? Because every person will exist forever, and because you are free.

Freedom is at the service of love. The first All Saints celebration down to our own day commemorates the members of our family who know and live the truth of who they are: children of a good and loving father.

Jesus is completely unafraid of worldly power. Am I?

“They will recline at table.” Reclining reflects defenselessness, peace, and vulnerability. Do I want to recline at table?

What we do in this life echoes for eternity. Say yes!

“The LORD hears the cry of the poor.” Do I pray in a way that He hears me?

John Paul II, like any authentic Jayhawk, trusted Jesus Christ. JP2 was convinced that we can only find ourselves in Christ. His life speaks volumes to us; Jesus is Who He says He is. Be not afraid!

“Gird your loins!” Am I awake and aware, or am I distracted and asleep?

Nothing matters more to God than real love. Abraham trusted this love; the Devil cannot comprehend it. Does self-sacrificing love matter to me?

Do you know the One whom we worship? He doesn't ask us to slay Amalekites! He asks us to praise and thank Him because we are not the Savior; we are children; men and women who are “drawn from water.”

Ignatius is a very important name that Catholics should know. He learned to follow Christ through the witness of the apostles, and his writings and life reveal to us that the Catholic faith is true. The witness of this saint continues to draw people into the embrace of the Catholic Church, because faith comes from what is heard.

The Pharisees have an agenda which moves them to interrogate Jesus and act with hostility towards Him…am I listening to Jesus or to my own agenda?

“LORD, increase our faith…God did not give us a spirit of cowardice, but rather of power and love and self-control.” Life is the fruit of a love that refuses to bow to fear.

Do I let the LORD of history touch my life and my story? What does He have access to in me?

Do you live in the real world, or do you live in America?

One of the littlest saints in history is also one of the greatest. She made space in her life for the Father. She trusted in and loved this Father. Do I?
