So, the greatest victory I have ever witnessed in my entire life happened at 11:47PM on November 2nd, 2016. That’s right, the Chicago Cubs won the World Series. Greatest victory ever! But the crazy thing is, that is nothing compared to what we celebrate today: victory over death. We celebrate today, Easter Sunday, the resurrection, where Jesus Christ is victorious over death. The reality is this: Jesus Christ said that he was God. Jesus Christ proved that he was God and rose from the dead. And he has promised eternal life for all of us. On this Easter Sunday, I have the easiest question that you will ever be asked in your entire life. Will you say yes?
This is Spirit Juice. Happy Easter! God bless all of you; you’re in my prayers. Peace.

When we hold or care for an infant child, it releases oxytocin. It’s written in our biology that babies are cute. The gospel for this Sunday is intense, but it is all about the preciousness of children, and the Catholic…

Resurrection of the Body
So, Captain America is obviously the best out of all the superheroes. When he receives the soldier serum, he becomes more of himself. He doesn’t become less of himself. He becomes perfected.
