    Battling the Serpent – Restoring Eden

    Dear Friends of the Kolbe Center, Glory to Jesus Christ! We have often reflected that the original and traditional mission of the Church is to work for the “restoration of all things in Christ, things in heaven and things on earth.”  But the mission of the Enlightenment and post-Enlightenment anti-Catholic movements has been to achieve a revolution against the old…

    Keep Me As The Apple Of Thine Eye

    Dear Friends of the Kolbe Center, Glory to Jesus Christ! Writing in the 7th century, the great Father and Doctor of the Church, St. Maximus the Confessor, prophetically warned against treating God’s timing and supernatural method of creation as truths that can discovered by reasoning from our observations of the natural world: How can the intellect not marvel when it…

    From Adam and Eve to the Present

    Dear Friends of the Kolbe Center, Glory to Jesus Christ!
