First of all, thank you for your insightful post about the Lutheran faith. This is a faith that is similar to the Roman Catholic beliefs. One similarity these two religions share is the sacrifice of praise and affirm that the bread and wine are the body and blood of Christ. Furthermore, the Catholic believe that there is God, Jesus, and the Holy spirit in one religious figure. According to Cashwell and Young (2011), the lord has a view of three individuals, such as the Father, Son, and Holy…

Calvin. Martin Luther believed the Catholic church was corrupt and saw fit to expose the catholic. Through his efforts of exposing the Catholic church, he became one of the most influential and controversial figures in Chris History. The Reformation changed the church with disarming the ecclesial meritocracy that suppressed the common man, reclaiming the biblical idea of a pastorate, and restoring the sacraments to the people. The calling of the Roman Catholic Church was appropriately called,…

As Catholics, we are called to follow the Corporal Works of Mercy. Visit the Sick, Feed the Hungry, Give Drink to the Thirsty, Clothe the Naked, Bury the Dead, and Visit the Imprisoned. What better way can we do this by going to, or donating to the peripheries. Is it not said that “Blessed are the Meek, for They Shall Inherit the Earth”, or what about,”Blessed are the Merciful, for They Shall Obtain Mercy.” As you may have guessed from the title, I’m going to tell you about Blessed Pier Frassati…

Pope John XXIII was born to the name “Angelo Giuseppe Roncalli” circa the year 1882. After being ordained in 1904 and being drafted by the Italian military to be a chaplain, Angelo served the church in multiple other ways. Angelo became the bishop of Bulgaria, as well as the papal ambassador of Turkey and Greece. Working his way up, Angelo became pope in 1958 and took the name Pope John XXIII. People expected Pope John XXIII to do much, as he was 76 at the time, nor did they expect him to stay…

In the 1300s, the Roman Catholic Church reached their zenith as Roman Catholicism was the most popular religion in Western Europe at the time. While it was at its peak, the papacy maintained most of the power amongst the citizens. Even though the Papacy held a large amount of influence during this time, they were set in their own ways and were unwilling to reform their systems. Protestantism was a revolt against the Medieval position of the Roman Catholic clergy. This led to the corruption of…

Infallibility, 1870, and The Doctrine of the Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary,1950, our readings covered a span of more than four hundred years of Church history. During this era, of which we now identify as the period of Counter-Reform of the Catholic Church, one character stood out for me quite brilliantly, Pope Paul III. Pope Paul III, in the midst of an era of rebuking authority, growing nationalism, and tremendous divide within the Christian Church, managed to redirect a tidal wave…

The nineteenth century is when the Residential School system is provided. “Residential Schools, beginning in the nineteenth century is best understood not only as a result of discrete developments relating to education, disability, or colonialism but also as a result of shared developments in white ruling-class progressives and professionals transformed residential schools, penalty, charity, public education, and institutions for various disabled peoples”…

the Rosary. Near this time, he encountered Francis of Assisi. This relationship can still be found between the Franciscans and the Dominicans in the church today. The Dominicans were largely responsible for spreading the Rosary through the Roman Catholic Church.…

Life changes in the blink of an eye. If someone told me ten years ago that I would not be going to Holy Cross Church for Mass every Sunday, I would have scoffed at them and thought they were insane. However, little did I know, that their prediction would become my reality. As a little girl, Holy Cross seemed like a castle fit for a princess. On the outside, two beautiful stone statues stood depicting Mary and Pope John Paul II on either side of the church. In the spring, we would crown Mary…

thinking and solving and framing problems. In the book it defines scholasticism as a new method for solving and framing complex theological and philosophical problems. The reason why is is called scholasticism is because it originated from medieval schools. Another thing I would mention in my definition is scholasticism can be heavily based on questioning. The monk Anselm taught that the human mind can combine knowledge from education and experience with divine revelation. For this to work you…
