Somewhere in New York City, a kid sat by a big old radio, pencil in hand, listening to John Sterling, writing down every score, picturing every pitch, every swing, every roar of the crowd.

And when his voice rose, “It is high! It is far! It is gone!”, that kid jumped like they were right there in the Bronx.

He gave that kid a seat their parents could never afford.

That was the story of thousands of kids across New York City.

That voice, that feeling, that connection to the game, it will never be replaced. Rest in peace, John.

🚨 JUST IN: Sen. Ted Cruz goes on a rampage against Tucker Carlson, calls him "the single most dangerous demagogue in this country"

"I'll tell ya, I've made the decision I am going to take him on directly!"

"So he has one idiot whom he describes as the most consequential popular historian in the country, who leans forward and intones that Winston Churchill was the villain of World War II."

"He then finds another crackpot professor who says there's a good argument that America should have sided with the Nazis in Germany in World War II."

"And for all of this, Tucker gazes adoringly."

Friends, what followed the apparition of Mary at Tepeyac is one of the most astounding chapters in the history of Christian evangelism. 

Within ten years of the appearance of Our Lady of Guadalupe, practically the entire Mexican people, nine million strong, converted to Christianity. 

La Morena had proved a more effective evangelist than Peter, Paul, Patrick, and Francis Xavier combined!

We ought, like La Morena, to be bearers of Jesus to a world that needs him more than ever.

Every New Yorker should be disgusted by NY’s Medical Aid in Dying Act (S138/A136). With little to zero safeguards and major risk of coercion, it endangers the disabled, elderly, & mentally ill.

On his return trip to Rome, Pope Leo XIV shared with reporters that the devotional book, The Practice of the Presence of God by Brother Lawrence, "...has been my spirituality for many years.”

Brother Lawrence (Nicholas Herman, 1614–1691) was a humble Carmelite lay brother in a Paris monastery, working mostly in the kitchen and repairing sandals. He had no formal education, yet developed a profoundly simple way of living in constant communion with God.

The book (a collection of his letters, conversations, and maxims recorded by others) teaches one core idea:

"Practice the presence of God continually" by turning every moment, even the most ordinary tasks (washing dishes, walking, eating), into acts of love and prayer by keeping your heart and mind directed toward God.

"Do everything for the love of God."
Not for spiritual feelings, success, or reward, but purely out of love. Even menial work becomes prayer when done for Him.

"Constant, simple conversation with God."
Talk to God naturally throughout the day like a close friend (“Lord, I’m peeling these potatoes for love of You,” “Help me when I’m impatient,” “Thank You”). No need for fancy words or set times.

"When you get distracted, gently return."
Don’t beat yourself up for wandering thoughts. Just calmly turn back to God. He values the effort more than perfection.

"Abandon yourself completely to God."
Trust Him in good times and bad. Accept joys and sufferings equally as coming from His hand.

"No complicated methods needed."
Bro. Lawrence rejected elaborate spiritual techniques. The “shortest way” to God is loving Him in the present moment, whatever you’re doing.

The entire message: Holiness is not about extraordinary experiences or strict rules — it’s about loving God in the ordinary, right now, with a childlike heart.

The Practice of the Presence of God has been a life-changing little book for many (often under 100 pages) that shows anyone — busy parent, worker, student — can live in deep union with God all day long.

I just experienced a beautiful moment here in Beirut, Lebanon. I was sitting in a coffee shop in the city, watching live coverage of the Pope’s arrival on my laptop. Across the room, I noticed two young men huddled over a phone. Curious, I walked over and realised they were also watching the live images of Pope Leo XIV landing in their country. To my surprise, they told me they were both Muslims, and then warmly invited me to sit with them so we could watch it together. When I asked what they hoped the Pope’s visit would bring to Lebanon, they answered simply, "peace". 🇱🇧 🇻🇦
