Best Catholic Posts
I am so excited to introduce this mega-post to you! I have been working hard the past couple of months to put it together and to find some great resources for you to follow as a Catholic Christian!
I have decided to give you more than 50 because there are simply too many great posts from Catholic writers out there!
And truth be told, I could make 3 or 4 of these posts and still not cover all the great content and the wonderful people that write them. But that’s where I figure you can search on your own, right?
I have expanded on the articles originally in each topic, so enjoy the updated posts from other Catholic bloggers.
So, here is your categorized breakdown of the best 50+ posts written by Catholics.

How Not to Lose Yourself in Motherhood
You do not want to lose yourself in motherhood in the sense that you lose your sense of who you are as a unique child of God. You do want to lose yourself in motherhood in the sense that you dive with both feet into the amazing life as a mom to your precious children. To help you to keep a balance between the two, follow these five guidelines: put God first, yourself second, your spouse third, your kids fourth, and everyone else fifth.

Mysterious Tools
This is one of my favorite articles about the mysterious nature of prayer. It concerns my son (when he was very young) and sick in bed with a particularly bad ear infection. I am also an author of children’s books as well as a mystery novel. My essay topics vary pretty widely–from the nature of the sacred and a need for reverence to what makes the Catholic concept of time unique from other traditions.
