Learning to Surrender Control to God
Surrender is one of the most misunderstood ideas in the Christian life. For many people, the word itself triggers resistance. It sounds passive, frightening, or even irresponsible. We are taught to plan carefully, protect ourselves, and stay in control. Faith, however, introduces a different way of living, one that asks us to loosen our grip and trust Someone beyond ourselves.

When You Want to Pray but Do Not Know What to Say
One of the quiet struggles many people experience in their faith is not doubt, but silence. Not God’s silence, but our own. There are moments when we sit down to pray and realize we have no words. No polished thoughts. No clear requests. Just a sense of heaviness, confusion, or fatigue. It can feel like prayer requires language we do not possess.

The Golden Globes Are Back… and Somehow Still Going
Ah yes, the Golden Globes — the discount Oscars. Or as I like to call them, the Teimu Version of the Oscars, which themselves are drifting into such cultural irrelevance that pretty soon the only place willing to broadcast them will be YouTube.

Rewind to the Nineties: My Top 10 Movies That Still Feel Brand New
There’s a certain magic to the 1990s. It wasn't just about grunge, dial-up internet, or neon windbreakers; it was a decade that produced some truly unforgettable cinema. Movies from the '90s hit differently. They had a distinct flavor, a blend of pre-CGI reliance on practical effects, raw storytelling, and the birth of a new kind of blockbuster that still feels accessible and human, even today.

I found it in my father’s wallet after he passed. Tucked behind his ID, worn soft at the edges, was a ticket stub from a match twenty years ago. The ink had faded, the date blurred, but I remembered the day: rain falling sideways, the stadium half-empty, our team losing badly. We’d left before the final whistle, soaked and silent.

I didn’t go for the game. I went for my nephew. He’s twelve, wears a faded jersey two sizes too big, and talks about football like it’s scripture. “It’s not about winning, Tío,” he’d said, eyes bright. “It’s about who shows up when no one’s watching.”

The Hour the World Went Quiet
It began with a flicker. Not of light, but of absence. The hum of my devices—the soft chime of messages, the buzz of updates, the endless scroll of curated lives—simply stopped. At first, I thought it was a glitch. I tapped screens. Checked cords. Restarted everything twice. But the silence held.

Scripture and Tradition: Why Catholics Need Both
One of the most distinctive features of Catholicism is its understanding of the relationship between Scripture and Tradition. Some people assume that the Bible alone is enough for Christian faith, but Catholics believe that God’s revelation comes not only through the written Word but also through the living Tradition of the Church. Scripture and Tradition are two channels of the same truth, working together to guide the faithful toward God.
