One Soul at a Time

December 30, 2022 by Fr. Ben Cameron Leave a Comment

Over the past year, we have seen a several signs of hope regarding the sanctity of every human life, and suffered a few setbacks as well. On the positive side, the U.S. Supreme Court has overturned the infamous Roe v. Wade and Planned Parenthood v. Casey decisions, rejecting the notion that there is a federal […]

November – Month of the Poor Souls

November 7, 2022 by Fr. Ben Cameron Leave a Comment

One of the spiritual works of mercy is to “pray for the living and the dead.” We usually remember that we should pray for the living, because they are around us, seen by us, and their needs are often apparent to our eyes. But do we remember to pray for the dead, for the souls […]

Our Lady, Terror of Demons

September 3, 2022 by Fr. Ben Cameron Leave a Comment

We are in a war, a spiritual war. The Christian life is a constant war against the world, the flesh, and the devil. But what does that mean? We are at war with “the world” in its fallen state, in which the world around us, fallen and prone-to-evil human society, attempts to lead us away […]

Can God forgive our gravest sins?

July 14, 2022 by Fr. Ben Cameron Leave a Comment

Sometimes people ask if God can really forgive our most grievous sins — He not only can, but He actually does, if we ask for forgiveness. In this video, I share some stories of people who were notorious sinners — some would say “monsters” — who experienced the grace of forgiveness from the Infinite Mercy […]

Reflections on Grief, following the death of my father

December 22, 2021 by Fr. Ben Cameron 5 Comments

On October 8th of this year, I lost my father (Walter Eugene Cameron) to lung cancer. It was the second great grief of my life, the first being the death of my brother, Matthew, to lung cancer four years ago. Granted, I have felt grief at other deaths both before Matthew’s passing, and since then, […]

Mary, Queen of Heaven and Earth

August 21, 2021 by Fr. Ben Cameron Leave a Comment

Every year on August 22nd, the Catholic Church celebrates the Queenship of Mary, one week after we celebrate her Assumption, body and soul, into heaven. Why would we honor the Blessed Virgin Mary as our queen? In ancient Israel, the kings often had multiple wives, so who was the queen in the kingdom? It wasn’t […]

Indwelling of the Holy Trinity

June 2, 2021 by Fr. Ben Cameron Leave a Comment

This past Sunday, we celebrated the Solemnity of the Most Holy Trinity, and I did a lot of reflecting on the mystery of the Trinity. Not only has God chosen a people to be His own (as He did with the Israelites), but He has revealed to us the mystery of His own interior life: […]

Lent: Why Fasting Matters

February 24, 2021 by Fr. Ben Cameron Leave a Comment

“Don’t give up chocolate for Lent. Do something else, like pray more, or do something positive.” How many of us have heard this — even from our pastors and trusted Catholic sources? The tradition of the Catholic Church is that there are three special “works” that we should engage in during Lent: prayer, fasting, and […]

Recommended book: Practical Theology

January 28, 2021 by Fr. Ben Cameron 1 Comment

On this Feast of St. Thomas Aquinas, who is the greatest theologian in the history of the Church, we might think that his insights are beyond our reach. After all, he was a tremendously smart writer, who wrote the Summa Theologiae, which has around 4,000 articles in which he answers objections to his theology, and […]
