What's Waking Up the Housing Market?
A lot of us expected the housing market to look a little bit different from what it currently does. For those of us who bought between 2019 and 2022, we saw interest rates go from about 3% up to 6% and now even higher. We were hoping that by buying at the 5% mark, we could refinance now to the 3% mark or even lower. However, I feel like the 3% interest rate era is long gone. Those of us who got in before the 7% and 8% increase probably got a better deal, but we might be stuck here a while.

The Hour the World Went Quiet
It began with a flicker. Not of light, but of absence. The hum of my devices—the soft chime of messages, the buzz of updates, the endless scroll of curated lives—simply stopped. At first, I thought it was a glitch. I tapped screens. Checked cords. Restarted everything twice. But the silence held.

Scripture and Tradition: Why Catholics Need Both
One of the most distinctive features of Catholicism is its understanding of the relationship between Scripture and Tradition. Some people assume that the Bible alone is enough for Christian faith, but Catholics believe that God’s revelation comes not only through the written Word but also through the living Tradition of the Church. Scripture and Tradition are two channels of the same truth, working together to guide the faithful toward God.
