In this Just 5 More Minutes video, Mike Landry leans on the story of the Annunciation to help us see some the deeper meaning behind those words. |

Landry: God helps us when we struggle
It can be a struggle for all of us to do the right thing or stay true to our faith. When we look for inspiration from the Bible, we might be discouraged when we read how the Israelites and disciples also struggled to do the right thing. But in much the same way as a high-end draft pick can change the course of a sports franchise, God has someone to send to our aid: the Holy Spirit. Watch |

A Person is a Person is a Person
Evergreen Catholic Schools chaplain Mike Landry was presented with a moral dilemma. Students asked if he would purposely injure a player on an opposing team if it meant winning a championship? His answer was easy: "Not a chance."
The reason comes from a proper understanding of what the Church talks about as the "dignity of the human person.”

Chronicle of C.S. Lewis
C.S. Lewis is one of Mike Landry's favorite authors. Lewis' faith is found both in his famous fiction (the Chronicles of Narnia) and non-fiction work alike.
