When they reach the age of five or six the questions come at a rapid-fire pace. This happens as their brains develop, and they are starting to... Continue Reading →
After reading Cardinal Newman’s “The Development of Ideas” I came to the conclusion that ideas and doctrine do not just come about.

Thomas Aquinas is known as one of the greatest thinkers in the history of the church. He was a prolific writer, and writings are still widely read today. When it comes to Christology Aquinas had a lot to say, and his writings on Christology can be read in the third part of his Summa Theologica... Continue Reading →
