"It is necessary to know that one is lost in order to want to be saved." —Madeleine DelbrĂȘl from the book, The Holiness of Ordinary People

Numbing of Consciences








In fact, the numbing of consciences, their indifference to good and evil, their deviations, are a great threat for man.  Indirectly, they are also a great threat for society, because in the last analysis the level of morality of society depends on the human conscience.

Where Would I Be?

"The rebel angels sinned but just once and never got a second chance, but were cast immediately into everlasting hell…I have sinned many times, 'O God, be merciful to me the sinner'…I will think of a soul in hell because of one mortal sin and ask myself where would I be if it were not for God’s mercy?"

Father Winfrid Herbst, S.D.S.

He Was Not Off The Mark, Was He?
