Go and Do Likewise (IV): Called to Listen
In a world where communication holds significant importance and it's just a click away, genuine dialogue can become increasingly difficult to achieve. Here too, Christians have the example of Jesus, who actively engages with those who hold different beliefs, embracing individuals irrespective of any disagreements or errors.
Go and Do Likewise (III): At the Forefront of Transforming the World
As Christians, we share the longing to make true the ideals we want for our world — justice, solidarity, charity — with many others. Yet sometimes conflict still arises when we try to work together. How can love, justice, and solidarity become realities in our lives?
Go and Do Likewise (I): You Did It to Me
Social needs, civil rights and duties, international relations, dialogue, and political action call Christians, children of one Father, to be "actively, freely, and responsibly present in public life" (St. Josemaría).
Sanctifying Work and "Christianizing" Society
Here is an article on a key aspect of Saint Josemaria's message: growing in holiness by offering our work done with love to God.
Work At All Times
The beginning of one's working life and the end of it are two important stages in life that bring with them special challenges in striving to sanctify work.
Professional Prestige
"A Christian's professional prestige does not necessarily involve success. The prestige that draws souls to God comes from the Christian virtues enlivened by charity." A new article in the series on sanctifying work.
Work and Family
Reconciling work and family obligations is not always easy. We can learn a lot from the Holy Family, as this new article in the series on sanctifying work reminds us.
Sanctifying with our Work
“Sanctity, for the vast majority of people, implies sanctifying their work, sanctifying themselves in it, and sanctifying others through it,” the Founder of Opus Dei tells us.
Work and Contemplation (I)
What does St. Josemaría mean when he insists that our work can become contemplative prayer? A new article in the series on how to sanctify our daily work.
Work and Contemplation (II)
The second part of an article on how to turn our work and daily activities into contemplative prayer, following the teachings of St. Josemaría.
Cross and Resurrection in Work
"Both in Nazareth and on Calvary, Christ's work (and our own, in so far as we are united with him) is redemptive and sanctifying." A new article in the series "Sanctifying our Work."
The Hinge of our Sanctification
St Josemaría often said: “Our ordinary activities are not an insignificant matter. Rather they are the very hinge on which our sanctity turns." A new article in the series on "Sanctifying our Work."
God's Work
"Work in our hands, as it was in Christ’s, must be turned into prayer to God and service to mankind for the co-redemption of the whole human race." A new article in the series "Sanctifying our Work."
Working Conscientiously
We offer the third in a series of articles on how to sanctify our daily work in light of the teachings of St. Josemaria.
Work and Rest
God wants us to work hard to help build up his creation, but also to rest. We offer an article that draws on the teachings of John Paul II and St. Josemaria on this topic.
