GODSTUFF VASCO’S NEXT CHAPTER: GOD MAKES A FAMILY The Wee Man isn’t so wee any more. Vasco Sylvester, the 10-year-old boy from Malawi who Sun-Times readers helped bring to Chicago for lifesaving heart surgery this spring has grown three inches — and three shoe sizes — since he left Hope Children’s Hospital in June.

GODSTUFF “APOLOGY PORN” AND A SPIRITUAL BUBBLE BATH If there had been a way to power-wash my brain, I would have done it. The words, images and emotions left with me after I watched a half-dozen video clips of actress Mackenzie Phillips’ interview with Oprah Winfrey earlier this week are something I wish I’d never had in my imagination. I regretted watching. I regretted knowing. I wanted to take a spiritual bubble bath. One blogger I read regularly suggested that... Read more

THEIR LATEST FILM IS A COMIC MASTERPIECE ON FAITH, DOUBT AND SUFFERING Earlier this week, I had a bad day. Epically bad. I ran out of cash. I lost my credit card. I missed my flight. And then, standing outside the United Airlines terminal at O’Hare, I dropped my cell phone, and as if in slow motion, watched in horror as it bounced and dropped over the barrier and onto the roof of the baggage claim area 10 feet below... Read more

GODSTUFF FOR LABOR SUNDAY: TO WORK IS TO PRAY Laborare est orare. To work is to pray. It’s a Latin phrase that the Order of St. Benedict adopted as its motto. St. Benedict, the founder of the order, recognized the sacred value of hard work, the notion that through the sweat of our brows and the strength of our arms and backs, we can worship the Creator. Each of us works, whether with our hands or with our minds. Whether... Read more

Godspeed, Ted. “… a single, enduring image – the image of a man on a boat; white mane tousled; smiling broadly as he sails into the wind, ready for what storms may come, carrying on toward some new and wondrous place just beyond the horizon. May God Bless Ted Kennedy, and may he rest in eternal peace.” Amen. May he rest in peace and may God’s grace comfort the hearts of those he’s left behind. Read more
