Catholic Carnival - Corpus Christi Edition

Here’s this week’s Catholic Carnival, a weekly roundup of self-submitted posts from Catholic bloggers.

Reflections

Harrison Ayre at Witness to Hope presents Reflections on the Problem of Evil. “The Problem of Evil is one of the greatest problems that have ever plagued theologians and philosophers. How do we reconcile evil with a Good and Loving God?”
Audrey Yii at My Journey presents Being Too ‘Salty’. “Jesus said Christians are called to be salts of the world. But how ’salty’ should we be? This post is about my personal experience when I’ve added too much ’salt’.”
Tom Reagan presents Maturing in a View of Jesus Through the Rosary. This is Part II in Tom’s 3-part series Maturing in a View of Jesus, a View of Mary, and a View of Ourselves Through the Rosary. Part I is about maturing in a view of Mary, and Part III will be about maturing in a view of ourselves.

Elena LaVictoire at My Domestic Church presents A Teachable Spirit. “I post a lot about the difficulties of the Titus 2 responsibility and how it is difficult to live out that command. It is my opinion, that a great deal of that comes from an unteachable spirit in many young women today. I came across two examples of this in blogs by first time moms this week. ”

Jay at Living Catholicism presents Want a Better Marriage? Marriage Encounter is for You. “My wife and I just attended a Marriage Encounter weekend and these are my thoughts on why you should attend with your spouse.”
A Penitent Blogger presents Dark Accusations and Hard Questions, a reflection on our need to be diligent as servants of a just and merciful God”

Other Uncategorized Stuff

Herbery Ely at HerbEly presents Book Review: Just War, Lasting Peace: What Christian Traditions can Teach Us. This book is the result of a one-day invitational forum on the applicability of the Just War tradition to the modern world. Herb recommends the book but wishes that it had given more background on 1) the decline of war over the past twenty five years; 2) von Clausewitz’s famous dictum about war being the continuation of politics; and 3) the context of turning the other cheek. He provides links to additional resources.
