I found it in my father’s wallet after he passed. Tucked behind his ID, worn soft at the edges, was a ticket stub from a match twenty years ago. The ink had faded, the date blurred, but I remembered the day: rain falling sideways, the stadium half-empty, our team losing badly. We’d left before the final whistle, soaked and silent.

I didn’t go for the game. I went for my nephew. He’s twelve, wears a faded jersey two sizes too big, and talks about football like it’s scripture. “It’s not about winning, Tío,” he’d said, eyes bright. “It’s about who shows up when no one’s watching.”

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.

How to Begin a Relationship with Jesus
Step 1: Find a quiet space Begin in a place where you can notice yourself. This could be a room, a park, or the space between heartbeats. The quiet is not about absence of sound but about presence of attention. Bring no agenda, only awareness. The first step is to show up.

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.

The Rosary and How It Leads to Christ
The Rosary is one of the most recognizable and cherished prayers in the Catholic Church. To many, it may appear as a repetitive sequence of words, beads, and Hail Marys, but in reality, it is a spiritual journey that leads the faithful closer to Christ. Praying the Rosary is not about counting prayers as if they were tokens. It is about meditation, reflection, and entering into the mysteries of salvation history through the life of Jesus.

Why Catholics Pray to Saints and What That Really Means
One of the most common misunderstandings about Catholicism is the belief that Catholics worship saints. This misconception often leads to confusion and criticism, especially from those unfamiliar with Catholic theology. In reality, prayer to saints has nothing to do with worship. It is rooted in how Catholics understand prayer, community, and the belief that life in Christ does not end at death.

The Apostles’ Creed
The Apostles’ Creed is one of the oldest and most important prayers in Christianity. For Catholics, it is not simply a memorized formula or a ritual recited out of habit. It is a concise summary of what the Church believes, rooted in Scripture, preserved through Tradition, and handed down across generations. When Catholics pray the Apostles’ Creed, they are doing more than listing doctrines. They are proclaiming a shared faith that connects them to the earliest Christians.

The Architect of His Own Fate. AI-Generated.
The Concrete Pillow In the winter of 2008, when the global economy was fracturing, David Morales was experiencing a private collapse of his own. At twenty-four years old, David owned exactly three things: a tattered wool blanket, a high school diploma, and a library card. While his peers were navigating the early rungs of corporate ladders, David was navigating the New York City subway system, searching for a car warm enough to sleep in without being harassed.

Beyond the Balance Sheet: The Evolving Role of the Chief Financial Officer
The responsibilities of a Chief Financial Officer have changed considerably over time. While financial accuracy and compliance remain important, many organizations now rely on CFOs for much more than reporting. Today’s financial leaders are expected to contribute to planning, risk assessment, and long-term stability. This broader role reflects how businesses increasingly recognize finance as a tool for clarity rather than control.
