The sign of a great Doctor of the Church is that he teaches not only through his thought and speech, but also with his life … If this is so, then NEWMAN BELONGS TO THE GREAT DOCTORS OF THE CHURCH because he both touches our hearts and enlightens our thinking. – Joseph Ratzinger
In him who is faithful to his own divinely implanted nature, the faint light of Truth dawns continually brighter.
I loved to choose and see my path; but now lead Thou me on!
Providence has delivered me of every worldly passion, save this one; the desire to acquire books, new or old books of any kind, whose charms I cannot persuade myself to resist.
I have lost friends, I have lost the world, but I have gained Him, who gives in Himself houses and brethren and sisters and mothers and children and lands a hundred-fold; I have lost the perishable, and gained the Infinite; I have lost time, and I have gained eternity.
Ward thinks I hold that moral obligation is, because there is a God. But I hold just the reverse, viz. there is a God, because there is a moral obligation. I have a certain feeling on my mind, which I call conscience. I feel it involves the idea of one who sees my heart.
On 11 August 1890 Saint John Henry Newman, C.O. died. At the Beatification Mass, the Holy Father Benedict XVI recalled a phrase of the Oratorian cardinal: “I want a laity, not arrogant, not rash in speech, not disputatious, but men who know their religion, who enter into it, who…

Yes. The great Catholic Saint John Henry Newman wrote an entire book sized essay on this titled “Essay in Aid of a Grammar of Assent.” Folks profess ‘trust’ & ‘believe’ in Scientists for a discipline in which they have little knowledge.

Christ has blessed fasting as a means of grace, in that He has fasted; and fasting is only acceptable when it is done for His sake. Penitence is mere formality, or mere remorse, unless done in love.
Our Spring Symposium is March 10-11 this year. We have an excellent lineup of speakers, who will be addressing "The Early Modern Roots of Newman's Religious World." See our website for more information and registration: newmanstudies.org/events/2023-sp…
Seek truth in the way of obedience; try to act up to your conscience, and let your opinions be the result, not of mere chance reasoning or fancy, but of an improved heart.
The Christian has a deep, silent, hidden peace, which the world sees not...The Christian is cheerful, easy, kind, gentle, because Christ's mercy is new every morning.
