Blogger's Block and the Catholic Carnival

A little of everything. First, sorry for the light posting of late. I've started a few articles, but nothing has really inspired me. So I guess I'm having a little bit of "blogger's block" so to speak. If you would like to hear my take on any specific topics, please add them in a comment below or email me. I would be glad to research and post on any good Catholic or apologetic-type topic.

In the meantime, please go check out this week's Catholic Carnival. It's devoted to St. Joseph the Worker, foster father of Jesus. And it's worth looking over (money-back guarantee!).

God bless,
Jay

Perhaps a change of pace would refresh you given that apologetics and current events can severely drain the soul.

May I suggest a few devotional and catechetical (focusing on bringing forth largely unknown teachings rather than defending largely known teachings) pieces?

  • Introduction to the Devout Life by Saint Francis de Sales.
  • Pardon and Peace by Alfred Wilson
  • Deus Caritas Est by Pope Benedict XVI
  • Pope John Paul II's Theology of the Body
  • Christopher West's articles on PJII's Theology of the Body

This might help us maintain the proper balance between learning and arguing.

Jay,

I found a candidate running for the 2008 presidential election. He is a Republican by the name of Ron Paul. He is an OB/GYN and he lives in Texas. He assisted in the delivery of my oldest sister back in 1970.
Ron Paul has 5 children of his own and has 17 grandchildren. I figure he's a good candidate to research. Just thought this information would help.

God Bless,
Felicia
