Dr. Carol Delaney is the author of Columbus and the Quest for Jerusalem.

Did you know Columbus was a Franciscan friar?
Did you know he was the God Father to a native chiefs son?

Columbus was a holy man who did everything for the salvation of souls.


Columbus and the Quest for Jerusalem: How Religion Drove the Voyages that Led to America by Carol Delaney

Christopher Columbus is reevaluated as a man of deep passion, patience, and religious conviction—on a mission to save Jerusalem from Islam.

Five hundred years after he set sail, Columbus is still a controversial figure in history. Debates portray him either as the hero in the great drama of discovery or as an avaricious glory hunter and ruthless destroyer of indigenous cultures. In Columbus and the Quest for Jerusalem, Carol Delaney offers a radically new interpretation of the man and his mission, claiming that the true motivation for his voyages is still widely unknown.

Delaney argues that Columbus was inspired to find a western route to the Orient not only to obtain vast sums of gold for the Spanish Crown but primarily to fund a new crusade to take Jerusalem from the Muslims before the end of the world—a goal that sustained him until the day he died. Drawing from oft-ignored sources, some from Columbus’s own hand, Delaney depicts her subject as a thoughtful interpreter of the native cultures that he and his men encountered, and tells the tragic story of how his initial attempts to establish good relations with the natives turned badly sour. Showing Columbus in the context of his times rather than through the prism of present-day perspectives on colonial conquests reveals a man who was neither a greedy imperialist nor a quixotic adventurer, but a man driven by an abiding religious passion. Columbus and the Quest for Jerusalem is not an apologist’s take, but a clear-eyed, thought-provoking, and timely reappraisal of the man and his legacy.

There's trouble... 💥right here in "River City," and it starts with sins that cry out to God for vengeance!

🙏But, there is still hope... 👉the pursuit of God's will. #AlwaysForwardNeverBack

2 Corinthians 6:14 New King James Version (NKJV)
Do not be unequally yoked together with unbelievers. For what fellowship has righteousness with lawlessness? And what communion has light with darkness?

Douay‐Rheims
 Bear not the yoke with unbelievers. For what participation hath justice with injustice? Or what fellowship hath light with darkness?

Learn about the Green Scapular and the promises and the conversions. 

From The Green Scapular and Its Favors
by  REV. FATHER MARIE EDOUARD MOTT, C.M.
Imprimatur, 1961 http://www.catholictradition.org/Mary/green-scapular4.htm
Practices
1. Wear or carry the scapular
2. To help another, place it in their vicinity (i.e. their room)
3. Pray, at least daily: "Immaculate Heart of Mary, pray for us now and at the hour of our death."
4. The prayer should be said for oneself and separately for each person to whom it has been given (unless they pray themselves)
5. No enrollment of any kind is necessary, but each scapular should be blessed by a priest (general blessing of sacramentals)
6. Have confidence in the effects of the scapular:

"The greatest graces come from using the scapular but these graces come
in direct proportion to the degree of confidence in me which the user has."

Promises/Benefits
1. Conversion of those who do not have the faith
2. Reconciliation to the Church for those who have lost/strayed from the faith
3. Assurance of a happy death
4. Strengthening of the faith for those already in the Church
5. Protection from Satan for those who wear or promote the scapular

Here you will learn
What is the Miraculous Medal?
Who was St Catherine?
What were the visions?
The many miracles of the Medal!
Quotes about the miraculous Medal from saints, popes, and liturgy.
What are the proper prayers to be invested?


St. Max Kolbe “At various times and in various trials the most Blessed Virgin Mary has come to the aid of her children, giving them different ways of attaining salvation more easily, and freeing others from the yoke of Satan. Now in this epoch of the Immaculate Conception the most Blessed Virgin has given mankind the ‘Miraculous Medal.’ Its heavenly origin has been proved by countless miracles of healing and particularly conversion….
“On this medal there is inscribed the ejaculation: ‘O Mary, conceived without sin, pray for us who have recourse to thee.’
This is a prayer which the Im­maculata herself places upon our lips, revealing it to us and recommending its recitation…. This is truly our heavenly weapon. . . .
A motto of Blessed Maximi­lian’s Order was: “And above all, the Miraculous Medal.”

I speak with two young Catholic women about Feminism. How to overcome feminism? What makes Feminism evil? What makes feminism so dangerous to a happy life?

Check out Emily's Youtube Channel https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCZMeGe56DtLuhSPBDy0sDOQ

The same false teachers who try to dim the luster of conjugal faith and purity do not scruple to do away with the honorable and trusting obedience which the woman owes to the man. Many of them even go further and assert that such a subjection of one party to the other is unworthy of human dignity, that the rights of husband and wife are equal; wherefore, they boldly proclaim the emancipation of women has been or ought to be effected. This emancipation in their ideas must be threefold, in the ruling of the domestic society, in the administration of family affairs and in the rearing of the children. …

This, however, is not the true emancipation of woman, nor that rational and exalted liberty which belongs to the noble office of a Christian woman and wife; it is rather the debasing of the womanly character and the dignity of motherhood, and indeed of the whole family, as a result of which the husband suffers the loss of his wife, the children of their mother, and the home and the whole family of an ever watchful guardian. More than this, this false liberty and unnatural equality with the husband is to the detriment of the woman herself, for if the woman descends from her truly regal throne to which she has been raised within the walls of the home by means of the Gospel, she will soon be reduced to the old state of slavery (if not in appearance, certainly in reality) and become as amongst the pagans the mere instrument of man (Casti Cannubii, §§74–75).

How should we give fraternal correction? 

Matthew 18:15-20
First, we are to correct the sinner privately. 
Second, if he refuses to listen, we bring one or two others. 
Finally, if necessary, the sinner must be brought to the Church. If he refuses even the correction of the Church, and if the matter is serious, he is to be excommunicated – for this is what our Lord means when he tells us, And if he will not hear the church, let him be to thee as the heathen and publican

1. There ought to be a real fault committed, or a real danger incurred
2.  It must proceed from real charity, that is, from a real love for the person, and a desire for the good of his soul and never out of pride.  For pride cometh before the fall, a man who corrects in pride will turn your friend into an enemy. If it comes from anger or hatred you will be evil for your soul.
3. Correct with meekness recognizing that you yourself are a sinner and in need of salvation. St. Paul, “if a man be overtaken in any fault, you who are spiritual, instruct such an one in the spirit of meekness, considering yourself, lest you also be tempted.” (Gal. 6:1).
4. There is a time and place for everything. Correcting someone after their mother dies at the funeral as they weep in the arms of the person they are cohabitating with is not the right time or place. In fact you will cause their hearts to be hardened and could lose them all together. | Correcting someone on stage is also a bad idea as it will humiliate them and cause them to defend their sin and hide their sin. | In these situations there is little to no hope of success. 
5. Look to God. Pray that God grants you the words to say and that God softens the heart of your friend that they be converted. Recognize that any good comes from God alone and you are an instrument. Never presume of our own abilities. 
6. it will be often necessary for them both to correct in public, and punish, where there are small hopes of amendment; for the sake of discipline, and for preventing the fall of others, and lest their silence should be interpreted an approbation.
