Knowing the difference between forgiveness and pardon will give us even greater resolve to change and atone for past sins.
When we think we deserve the good we receive, or have figured out our faith, we forget that we can do nothing apart from God.
We cannot sell our birthright as Adam and Esau did. Lent is a time of repentance of past sins, a time of self-denial and growth in charity.

What is a Classical Liberal Arts Education? Why is it so important for the development of a person?
Fr. Juan R. Vélez answers these and more questions you might have about University Education in the 21st century. This book is aimed for parents, prospective University students, and educators. It will help you discern why adding Liberal Arts electives to your education will help it form it better, and help the student learn to reason, and not just learn.
He also explains how many Universities have changed the true meaning of Liberal Arts, and the subjects, and gives advise on how to choose College Campus, Subjects, and Teachers.
A wonderful book that every parent should also read way before your children are College bound. A Liberal Arts education can start earlier in life, even from home.

Grace is that new law by which we obey the law of Christ in faith, on trust.
Do we love the Word of God or do we take it for granted?
