December 9, 2025 Dear Friends in Christ, Having just celebrated Thanksgiving, I just want to give thanks. 2025 has been one of the most extraor...
Saint Joseph always appears in Manger scenes during Advent and Easter time and even has a special Solemnity or Feast in his honor, St. Joseph's Day, M...
Saint John of the Cross makes clear that the only path to profound knowledge of God and the joy that this brings is through tribulation and suffering....
Our amorphous fluffy God has a plan. It (God) has your best interests in mind, and, if you only submit to it enough, you’ll be blessed beyond your wildest imaginings with health for you and your family, wealth to provide for them (and to occasionally take...
I have four kids. As you can imagine I have a lot of “slip ups” when it comes to swear words. By 3pm, I’m pretty much a fuming bundle of nerves because I’ve been cleaning up after a 3-year-old all day long. I always start with a...
The day has arrived. The much awaited day of wreckoning (yes I misspelled that on purpose) between Paul, the Free Marketeer, and Josh, the Chestertonian Distributivist. This is the third and final part of our three part series, so those of you who haven't caught up...

Most people in America - scratch that - most Catholics in America, when they hear the word "Catholic," think: "American-style home parish Roman Catholic". But, what...

Imagine you’ve just been hired at Google. You know you always wanted to work there, that it’s going to be the best thing ever, but there’s one problem: you have no idea what your job description is. So you come in on your first day...
DISCLAIMER: For those of you who haven’t heard yet before the year’s close, Pope Francis is set to release an encyclical on Climate Change. We don’t know what it is going to say, but with the Church stepping headlong into matters of politics, economics, and science, it...
