Words to Live by – from Catholic Tradition
We Must Live According to Reason – Not According to Inclination
Here is the teaching of St. John of the Cross, the Mystical Doctor of the Church:
Blessed is he who, setting aside his own liking and inclination, considers things according to reason and justice before doing them.
Quoted from
his work, Prayer Of A Soul Taken With Love, #42.
Catholic Candle note: To assist parents in homeschooling, we call your attention to a new Traditional Catholic homeschool which is now accessible worldwide. Here is some information about this homeschool:
Angelic Doctor Academy
We would like to introduce Angelic Doctor Academy, a Traditional Catholic homeschool for grades 9 – 12 (lower grades coming soon). We think Traditional Catholics will appreciate our unique and militantly Traditional Catholic curriculum. We have written many new textbooks because we saw the problems in many books commonly used, whether they were history, science, or in other disciplines. We think Catholic parents – especially busy mothers – will appreciate our unique grading system in which we correct everything, including handwritten essays. This allows the parents to concentrate on teaching, explaining, and keeping order. Please visit https://www.ada.school to learn more. Mention that you are a Catholic Candle subscriber for a 10% discount on materials. Thank you!
