Question of the Week:  How often do you go to confession?  Do you have a regular confessor or do you go to different priests?
I try to go at least every 3 months. I do not have a regular confessor.

Do you have any suggested resources for those trying to kickstart these last weeks of Lent?
Learning more about the faith is a very important thing to do and Lent is a good time to kickstart the process. A good resource online from Fr. Barron is his secondary YouTube channel playlist "Faith Seeks Understanding" (a phrase from one of the Christian Fathers) here: http://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL01F8772094235EC2

What is your favorite movie?
My favorite movie is A Man for All Seasons. It's about St. Thomas More and his journey toward martyrdom in the kingdom of Henry VIII. It's my favorite because of the dialog and the reminder that such things can come to pass in any lifetime, ev'n in a "rational culture" (not like passionate Spain), and usually from the marriage issue (St. John the Baptist, too; Leviticus XVIII). I recall many lines from this movie adaptation of the play quite often.

Question of the week: What are your plans for Lent?
Keep writing everyday (except Sunday) on Christian focused posts as it pertains to movies, TV, and music. I just started on this topic in January, and Lent can help me on this activity to give glory to God through my blog (in some small way).

Question of the week: What is your favorite Bible verse and why.
My favorite Bible verse is 1 Corr. 15:16-17 (yes, two verses, but one sentence), "For if the dead are not raised, neither has Christ been raised, and if Christ has not been raised, your faith is vain; you are still in your sins." Since Christ has been raised from the dead, these verses remind me that my ultimate beliefs are hopeful, historical, reasonable, and not in vain.

Sunday Snippets--A Catholic Carnival Post I

This is for the weekly Catholic Carnival! This is my first one!

Question of the week: Name a favorite book and tell us what you like about it.
My favorite book for now is Fill These Hearts by Christopher West.
I like this book since it presents the Theology of the Body of Pope John Paul the Great in a casual style. This style is further accentuated by his connections between the topic and popular music (a niche of my blog). It was so understandable, in my opinion, that I suggested it to a non-Catholic acquaintance for further understanding of the Theology of the Body (she's from Turkey).
