A Culture of ‘Me’ Promotes Cowardice: Love And Permanence In The Modern World
A Culture of ‘Me’ Promotes Cowardice: Love And Permanence In The Modern World
Mar 19, 2025 1:17 AM

The Vatican is currently hosting a three-day inter-faith conference and discussion entitled Humanum. According to their website, it is

… a gathering of leaders and scholars from many religions across the globe, to examine and propose anew the beauty of the relationship between the man and the woman, in order to support and reinvigorate marriage and family life for the flourishing of human society.

Witnesses will draw from
 the wisdom of their religious tradition and cultural experience as they attest to the power and vitality of plementary union of man and woman. It is hoped that the colloquium be a catalyst for creative language and projects, as well as for global solidarity, in the work
 of strengthening the nuptial relationship, both for the good of the spouses themselves and for the good of all who depend upon them.

One of the focal points of this gathering is a beautiful set of videos, each centered on a particular aspect of love, marriage, family mitment. The video below allows young people to voice their concerns and ideas regarding these issues.

  Commentary on Today's Verse   Commentary on Acts 20:17-27   (Read Acts 20:17-27)   The elders knew that Paul was no designing, self-seeking man.

He was a powerful preacher;...

  Commentary on Today's Verse   Commentary on James 1:1-11   (Read James 1:1-11)   Christianity teaches men to be joyful under troubles: such exercises are sent from God's love; and trials in the way of duty will brighten our graces now, and our crown at last.

But we are not properly united, except as we attend to God's word, seeking his direction and blessing, and acting with affection. Ever remember, that though secret sins may escape the eyes of our fellow-creatures,...

  Commentary on Today's Verse   Commentary on 1 Corinthians 3:16-17   (Read 1 Corinthians 3:16-17)   From other parts of the epistle, it appears that the false teachers among the Corinthians taught unholy doctrines. Such teaching tended to corrupt, to pollute, and destroy the building, which should be kept pure and holy for God. Those who spread loose principles, which render the church...

  Romans 2:5-6 In-Context   3 So when you, a mere human being, pass judgment on them and yet do the same things, do you think you will escape God's judgment?   4 Or do you show contempt for the riches of his kindness, forbearance and patience, not realizing that God's kindness is intended to lead you to repentance?   5 But because of...
