THE SACRAMENTS
DISCOVERING THE TREASURES OF DIVINE LIFE

the Sacraments

​Some of the most important and necessary building blocks of human life are so often taken for granted: water, air, fire, food. We live each day without any sense of gratitude for these blessings that sustain our physical life. And so it is for our spiritual life. The Sacraments are the very lifeblood of our soul, yet in the midst of our busy lives, we can fail to understand their power and importance. Without them, we are spiritually dead. With them, the very life of God runs through us.

In this new book from Fr. Matthew Kauth, the Church’s 7 Sacraments are presented in such a way that no reader will ever again take them for granted. Father Kauth brilliantly illuminates not only the scriptural foundation and profound spiritual realities of each sacrament but also the necessity of each as a means to living a happy and fulfilled life that leads to Heaven.

THE BIBLE
LISTENING VIA THE CORPUS CHRISTI WEBSITE

Picture
LISTEN TO THE DAILY EPISODES
THE BIBLE IN A YEAR

Listen to the entire Bible in 365 episodes through the Corpus Christi website, provided by Father Mike Schmitz with commentary, reflection, and prayer along the way. Unlike any other Bible program, Ascension’s The Bible in a Year follows the reading plan inspired by The Great Adventure Bible Timeline. You won’t just read the Bible in a year, you will finally understand how all the pieces of the Bible fit together to tell an amazing story that continues in your life today.

DAILY 1-MINUTE REFLECTIONS
CONSECRATION TO ST. JOSEPH

Picture

Corpus Christi encourages everyone to prepare for and consecrate ourselves to Saint Joseph by listening to the one-minute reflections of Father Donald Calloway, author of the book Consecration to St. Joseph, to emulate the tried and true preparation method employed by St. Louis de Montfort in his Marian consecration, highlighting many of St. Joseph’s titles, privileges, and heroic virtues.

STATIONS OF THE CROSS
SCHEDULE

The Stations of the Cross are a 14-step Catholic devotion that commemorates Jesus Christ's last day on Earth as a man. The 14 devotions, or stations, focus on specific events of His last day, beginning with His condemnation. The stations are commonly used as a mini-pilgrimage as we move from station to station. At each station, we briefly recall and meditate on a specific event from Christ's last day. Specific prayers are recited, then we move to the next station until all 14 are complete.
