Last year Bishop Wall gave us an in-depth look at the joyful history of Advent. This year, we're once again exploring this very important liturgical season, but with a new twist. Namely, how do we enjoy the season without succumbing to overconsumption and materialism, or the loneliness and depression that often springs up in wintertime?

“That’s one of the lessons we can learn from St. James, is not to be discouraged, and if we do find ourselves being discouraged, turn toward Our Lady."

Racism and intolerance is nothing new, but they are evils that must be answered whenever they are encountered. In a time when prejudice seems to be constantly bad in the spotlight, Bishop Wall proposes that Catholics answer as Jesus taught us: through nonviolent, authentic love. towards our neighbors.
