A reminder that for all the inequities of American life, the poorest state in America — Mississippi — has nearly the exact same GDP per capita as the weathiest state in Europe, Germany with cheaper food and housing.

Americans on both the left and the right who stoke resentment for votes appear to have lost contact with the reality of the obscene material abundance that we all enjoy compared with the rest of the planet.

Generation Z is richer than any previous American generation was at the equivalent stage of their lives, not poorer.

The many diseases that we suffer from are mostly the self-inflicted wounds of abundance.

What we do with the opportunities we are given is up to us. We can all eat better, read more, and help those in need.

Pretending that those opportunities and the accompanying wealth they offer don’t exist is an obscene insult to the 90% of humanity that has to toil all their lives for basic subsistence at a level that Americans are too sheltered and self-involved to recognize.

The future is still being invented here. We will shape it together, either through our imagination and hard work or through cosplay resentment, willful ignorance and hate.

How do they not feel embarrassment, constantly claiming they can end all the world's problems with some small fraction of the amount of money they spend every single year?

The World Cup begins tomorrow, and many will watch the matches. Soccer reminds us of something we must not forget: life is not a race to show off on our own, but a path we learn to walk together. Anyone who does not know how to pass the ball, even if they have talent, has not yet understood the game. Anyone who does not know how to live with and for others has not yet understood life. #ApostolicJourney

The amount of ppl that don’t understand what a catch is in the rule book flabbergasts me. And it’s not the officials. The two plays yesterday were not difficult calls, and they got them both right.

Prayer is not an escape from reality. It is the very place we meet Christ, who Himself was unjustly slain.
We will continue to pray, not because we are passive, but because we know only God can bring true justice, healing, and peace. Evil wants us to stop praying and to despair. We will not. We cling to Christ, who has conquered death.
“The prayer of a righteous person has great power in its effects.” -James 5:16
