Catholic competition

The Infernal Files are a collection of devilish letters coming from different "senior devils" to their "junior devils." These letters deal directly with the temptations confronting today's young Catholics from high school to young adulthood. The senior devils are offering advice to the junior devils-on how to tempt their "patients" and foul the efforts of the Enemy, God. In the Infernal Files are to be found letters about patients at all stages of spirituality from those already well along their journey to those still in the midst of the most worldly temptations.

Ashes

Although "Ashes" has a title that is fitting for the day of Ash Wednesday, I feel that it's message is basically opposite to the real meaning of Ash Wednesday. "Man, remember you are dust and unto dust you shall return." Whereas "Ashes" carries on about "rising again from the good we've failed to do." "Rising again" doesn't come from our own effort, on our own we are dust---the season of Lent is about recognizing our own weakness and our need for salvation. That's simply why I really avoid doing "Ashes." Probaby one of the songs at Church I feel most strongly about.
