Friends, on this feast of St. Thomas Aquinas, I invite you to watch the “Pivotal Players” episode about his life and vocation. As many of you know, Aquinas is a dear spiritual friend and hero of mine. In this documentary, we explore his countercultural vocation, the relationship between faith and reason in his works, and more.
St. Thomas Aquinas, pray for us!

I have just been called back to the Catholic Church and still need to go through the steps of First Communion and Confirmation at the age of 45. Already, I'm being led to St. Thomas Aquinas.

Keep up your readings. Once you finish RCIA, your world, the truth be with you and in you. Your journey in Christ, even as a Catholic will not be easy. I am an Catholic Apologetic and my call from God was to help my brothers and sisters, both new and old to come closer to God. Be weary by Christian family around KZfaq as there are many who are not taught to speak on subjects but they do as Fundamentalist and not Theologian. If at anytime you have a question of your faith, as the Priest and don't forget you have family in the Church. Even outside the Church, you can ask me. May God continue to Bless you, your family and all that you bring to the church.

Aquinas brought me to catholicism for the simple fact i seen that he questioned things, he did not have blind faith and i truly admire that. I think it is what sets catholics apart from other prodestant faiths, not that there is anything wrong with prodestants. I just really admire Aquinas and now im in RCIA classes awaiting my baptism. Today is a special day for sure

@nomadpi1 2 ай бұрын

Have I missed some vocab lesson? It is "Protestant." Not "prodestant." Protestant, root word "protest," as the questioning MLK, started was a "protest." He nailed his protests to the church's door!

One of my favorite Bishop Baron videos. In less than an hour he takes you by the hand to meet the genius, scholar and Saint Thomas Aquinas, introducing you to his literary work which reflects, the search for truth in large and small issues, using philosophy at the service of theology, and being a historically pivotal character in demonstrating that faith and reason are not at odds but rather coexist and reinforce each other.
