The Expanding Responsibilities of Today’s Chief Financial Officer

Making Time for God: Daily Prayer in a Busy Life
Life is busy. Work, family, errands, and responsibilities often fill every corner of the day, leaving little space for reflection or prayer. Yet daily prayer is one of the most powerful tools a Catholic has for staying grounded, cultivating patience, and experiencing God’s presence in every moment. Finding ways to integrate prayer into a busy life is not about creating a rigid schedule; it is about building habits that allow moments of connection, however brief, to become transformative.

Understanding the Sacraments and Why They Matter
The Catholic Church teaches that the sacraments are more than rituals or traditions. They are encounters with God, tangible ways to experience His grace and presence in our lives. Each sacrament has a unique purpose, a moment where faith becomes visible, and life meets the sacred. Understanding why the sacraments matter is an invitation to see how God works in both ordinary and extraordinary ways.

The Trouble with /My/ Time
Today is supposed to be my fresh start to a new week, but I am still reeling with the realization that my private property means absolutely nothing to my children's father, that my parenting time and my personal plans are irrelevant enough to him to risk our child going without the prescription drink he needs - just because said adult's schedule is the sole valuable one?, and that there is likely nothing I can do to stop this behavior from simply continuing.

What Is Your Favorite Bible Verse?
Sometimes a few words from the Bible can change the way we see the world and guide the way we live our lives. One of my favorite verses comes from Isaiah 61:3. It says, “I will give them a crown of beauty instead of ashes of despair, the oil of joy instead of mourning, and a garment of praise instead of a spirit of despair.” These words have carried a lot of meaning for me over the years. They have been more than inspiration. They have been a guide for how I try to show up in the lives of the people I care about.

Learning to Surrender Control to God
Surrender is one of the most misunderstood ideas in the Christian life. For many people, the word itself triggers resistance. It sounds passive, frightening, or even irresponsible. We are taught to plan carefully, protect ourselves, and stay in control. Faith, however, introduces a different way of living, one that asks us to loosen our grip and trust Someone beyond ourselves.

When You Want to Pray but Do Not Know What to Say
One of the quiet struggles many people experience in their faith is not doubt, but silence. Not God’s silence, but our own. There are moments when we sit down to pray and realize we have no words. No polished thoughts. No clear requests. Just a sense of heaviness, confusion, or fatigue. It can feel like prayer requires language we do not possess.
