By Al Serrato Sitting in traffic the other day, I once again saw the bumper sticker “Do you have faith?” It’s catchy, in a way, and in this day and age of catchphrases, I can guess why people find it useful. Maybe it’s a good discussion-generator, a way to invite a question or an answer. […]
By Jason Jimenez According to the Olivet Discourse (Matt. 24-25; Mk.13; Lk. 21), Jesus prophesied that the world would grow darker before returning for his Bride, the church.
