Lent 2014
Only way to know how much God loves you is to give him a try, pope says
VATICAN CITY (CNS) -- For people who believe their sins make it impossible for God to forgive them, the pope said, "Well, try! If you want to discover the tenderness of this father, go to him and find out, then come and tell me about it."

Lent and the road less traveled
What Francis of Assisi and every other great saint discovered in their time is that we become who we really are when we allow Jesus Christ to transform and work through us. In that spirit, Archbishop Charles Chaput in his weekly column offers an examination of conscience that we can apply during Lent to just about every aspect of our lives.
