Tom Hoopes on Christianity's Saving Paradox

"At Benedictine College in Kansas I have contact with religious and lay people, married and single. Twice recently I had to share a lesson I had to learn the hard way: If life is going wrong, you can't necessarily expect it to get better; but if you stop and look, you will realize that life is beautiful even when it's at its worst."

In a recent commentary, Tom Hoopes (writer in residence at Benedictine College, Atchison, Kansas) reflected on the importance of expecting the cross each day and, at the same time, noticing the graces as much as we notice the needs.
