April’s Call: From Lent to Priesthood, Purpose and You

Last updated on: April 9, 2025 at 11:00 am By Dr. Feyi Obamehinti

Welcome to April! Dear Patheos Friends, Welcome to the month of April! A friend shared this April Fool’s Day quote warning me to beware of stupid pranks; “Believe nothing, trust no one, just like any other day.” I appreciated the joke, and thought it was interesting since April Fool’s Day was a travel day to our state capital with some fellow patriots. We are now officially in spring with many things to celebrate and observe for everyone this month. The... Read more

Year In God’s Hands A dear Patheos friend sent me the information on National Quitters Day on January 10, 2025. Yes, it is a thing! According to Bloder, National Quitters Day is when experts have determined that most people who have made resolutions for the new year typically abandon them. In the last post (The Sumurai Way), we started out with the guidance not to get into resolutions. Rather to place the new year into God’s hands and make His... Read more
