IT consultants are highly coveted these days, and it is easy for an IT consultant to believe that simply having a great number of profitable jobs will guarantee success. Succeeding as an IT consultant is about more than money, and involves several other categories, including important personal and professional factors. It is these important e
As they venture further from Catholicism (like the Church is an embarrassing ancestor that people try to keep in the closet) they stop any real honor of holy men in Church history. The mere study of their devout becomes a sin, and the only ones mentioned in their washed-out history books are the ones who’s only accomplishment was extreme opposition to Catholicism. And ignoring the lives of the saints only leaves them with a terrible void…one that should’ve been filled by an incredible gift from God.
That gift isn’t so much the greatness of men and women who have dedicated their lives to the greater glory of God (and the beneficial fruits that come from this) but the display of diversity within the God’s Church. As we study the life of Jesus (and try to imitate it) there’s always the alluring temptation to give up, because he was God, and not being God, how could we hope to replicate such holiness.
But in the study of saints, we don’t always focus on the man...but on specific characteristics of a man. Pope John Paul II, for example (who’ll no doubt receive the title some day), brought us an attitude of peace and the promotion of a “culture of life”. Yes, he was smart, prayerful, holy, and had all the other markings of a saint. But history (while it might mention these other things) will always point to his accomplishments in the promotion of peace and unity. The Church will always see him as a shining example
There are many talented women of the world in politics, the arts, and science. There are educators, leaders, and creative thinkers. Because so many are part of the workforce, they are no longer viewed as simply the “little woman” sitting at home and tending the children. Rather, they have moved forward into every salient sector of society. They

When I coach my clients on how to get more business from their e-zines, I'm delighted to see that they spend time on creating content that builds a relationship with their readers.But I see many of these publishers overlooking the very beginning of their valuable relationship with their subscribers. For example, the "thank-you" pa
A quick look through the lives of the saints reveals thousands of such characteristics. St. Thomas Aquinas was the intellectual giant. St. Francis of Assisi showed us how to live a life of poverty. St. Catherine of Sienna reflects a deep love for Christ. St. Bernadette’s simplicity (and obedience) gives us a powerful example of what God can accomplish through unlikely channels.
As each of these saints had prominent virtues in their lives, each of these virtues have a contrasting weakness or tendency that we’re forced to fight throughout our own existence. And that’s why we contemplate on their lives. Not just for example and inspiration, but because they signify that such perfections in virtue are possible…even for someone without a divine nature.
