St. Maximos' Hut

I note that the Eternal Word TV Network (EWTN), the worldwide Roman Catholic radio-TV apostolate built by Mother Angelica, celebrates its 25th anniversary this weekend, with "Family Celebration" near the network headquarters in Alabama.
Catholic World News notes that

Launched in 1981, from the garage of a Poor Clare monastery, EWTN today is the world's largest religious broadcasting network, transmitting programming 24 hours a day to more than 105 million homes in 110 countries.

According to its website, EWTN is entirely supported by donations from viewers. Truly, this is a remarkable result of the exercise of consumer choice in favor of spiritually satisfying programming and a willingness to support that choice by placing money where the heart is.
I offer the following as the St. Maximos' quote of the week from EWTN's foundress:

Unless you are willing to do the ridiculous, God will not do the miraculous.
