We find delight in the beauty and happiness of children that makes the heart too big for the body. — Ralph Waldo Emerson Photo by REUTERS/Afolabi Sotunde This photograph of school children in Abuja, Nigeria taken on Monday, May 22 when Bono and other activists from DATA [Ed. note: Hi Sheila! Traveling mercies home. Chicago misses you!] visited their school, brings to my mind something Jesus said. Look into their eyes. See what he sees. Try to see them with... Read more

TODAY IN GOD . . . On May 20, 325 A.D., the Emperor Constantine convened the first Ecumenical Council in Nicea to discuss the heresy of Arianism, which argued that Jesus is not divine. The council concluded that he was and we got the Nicene Creed, which, for those of you a little rusty in the liturgical department, goes like this (according to The Book of Common Prayer): I believe in one God, the Father AlmightyMaker of heaven and earth,...

GODSTUFF: ‘DA VINCI CODE’ FLAP ABOUT SEX AND GOD—BUT MOSTLY SEX It would not be an overstatement to say that in the last three months I’ve received hundreds of faxes and e-mails pitching one “expert” after another’s commentary on “The Da Vinci Code.” Roman Catholic priests, Opus Dei members, presidents of seminaries, presidents of publishing companies, columnists, authors, former nuns, former priests, activists, pastors, producers, directors, pagans, Jews, Protestants, Muslims, theologians, historians, psychologists, archeologists and at least one psychic.

But I’ll get one for the fellas up there... Read more
