The Face of Grace Project

Step out of the social and into the silence

 

Before you were conceived, God already planned for you to spend eternity with Him! He wants you to begin that life of peace now, this very day. So much time is spent searching for truth on the Internet and seeking connectedness in social media. How might your life change if you step out of that noise and into the silence with Him?

 

Grace works silently, smoothly, effortlessly. It is the small voice in the cave of Mt. Horeb. We must be still to hear its whisper. For this reason, The Face of Grace Project has no comments, no social endeavor, no human conversation. It is a place to read, reflect, consider that which brings peace and that which distressfully convicts, and to take both to silent conversation with God. All content is in strict accord with the doctrine and teachings of the Roman Catholic Church, which is the lived Christian experience to the full.

Presence

Peace, Truth, Relationship…all for which you search is found in our Trinitarian God. Your Father intends for you to live in His Love now, experiencing His presence with each breath. This is the purpose of the Christian life. Presence is a space for guidance on prayer, discernment, and God’s teachings that will help you dispose yourself to His loving grace.

 

Across the ages

 

 

This “Grace-space” shares God’s Wisdom revealed in Sacred Scripture and taught for 2000 years by the saints and Magisterium of the Roman Catholic Church. The only path to Holiness is to live His Truth, which is timeless. Truth cannot be relativized, but it is always relevant and can be embraced in the simple moments of our daily lives. This Grace-space provides the spiritual guidance of the Holy ones, our Catholic heritage, who are already accompanying you and desire to help you on your journey.

Life, Work and the World

We are God’s project, the clay in the Potter’s hands. Made Holy through Baptism, we grow relationship with God through prayer and the Sacraments. He does more than just walk by our side. He leads the way when we give Him our hand. He carries us when we surrender to Him. His Spirit heals us and fills us with Himself. God transforms us into the Face of Grace. It is through us that He desires to change the world. We become His beacon to bring others to Him, to Salvation itself.

 

Change, then, must begin first in us.

Journaling: the Written Memory of Grace Part 2

This is the second of a three-part series on spiritual journaling. Christian journaling differs from that of Eastern religions and new age personal development because it is a conversation with God focused on Him. This article explains how to journal which is different than keeping a diary.

A rule of life for the heart: creating a spiritual life plan

The Catholic mass always concludes with an instruction to go and share the Gospel of the Lord. We leave mass with the best of intentions to live our faith only to forget everything once we are behind the steering wheel in the car!

What if there was a way to make the mass, particularly the Eucharist, a way of life?

The visit of kings

On this holy day of the Epiphany, we celebrate the Magi’s arrival to pay homage to the newborn king. Two thousand years later, these men remain somewhat of a mystery. Yet what we do know is sufficient for prayerful meditation.

The sacredness of Sacred art

Jesus’ birth is one of the most important events in all of salvation history. Sacred art, including our nativity sets, exist to depict this sacred, solemn event. It specifically is a depiction of the fulfillment of Old Testament prophecies. It is a pronouncement that the Messiah has come. As society has lost touch with its God, so too we Catholics have lost touch with the Sacred…

Walking with the Holy Family

Christmas Eve has arrived and it is perhaps the day in which we most profoundly contemplate the circumstances of Christ’s birth. Jesus chose His parents and the circumstances…

All in its due season

Catholics too often need to suffer the famine of grace, the drought of love and peace, before they are willing to consider that just maybe life’s answers aren’t found in their own self-reliance. Interior freedom is only found by surrendering to God.

Our Mission & Vision

Bringing souls to Christ and Christ to souls by sharing the lived experience of the Christian life.

Belonging is not a place; it is a person: Jesus Christ. Our baptized souls, sanctified by the grace of the Eucharist, joined in Him, share through Him the grace of our everyday life. The Face of Grace Project provides help to understand and dispose yourself to beholding the Face of God in the Grace of the Present Moment. In Him is where you have always belonged.
