Does the Law or the Gospel predominate in your life? Do you spend more time telling people what they should do, how their attitudes should be, and how they should be living their lives?

The Church is called to be faithful in doctrine and mission. Both flow from Christ Himself. Our Lord did not merely command the Church to maintain sound teaching; He also directed His Church to “go and make disciples of all nations” (Matt. 28:19). Likewise, St. Paul exhorts Timothy to “guard the good deposit entrusted to you” (2 Tim. 1:14), but also declares, “Woe to me if I do not preach the Gospel!” (1 Cor. 9:16). In other words, we must both get the message right and get the message out.
Semiquincentennial is sort of an unmusical word, isn’t it? Those seven syllables don’t exactly roll off the tongue.
