March 29, 2024
By Greg Erlandson
OSV News
Filed Under: Commentary, Easter, Lent

Express gratitude for the blessing that this, the greatest feast in the church calendar, truly is.

‘You will never wash my feet!’

February 26, 2024
By Greg Erlandson
OSV News
Filed Under: Commentary, Lent

In our highly polarized society that has divided everyone into “us” and “them,” the apparent incompatibility of the washer and the washee is exactly the point of the ad.

How deep are our divisions?

January 24, 2024
By Greg Erlandson
OSV News
Filed Under: Commentary

Political identity has become a “meta-identity,” impacting not just our politics but where we live, how we pray, who we associate with.

Twist! A Christmas resolution for this New Year’s

December 28, 2023
By Greg Erlandson
OSV News
Filed Under: Christmas, Commentary

This Christmas season, let our New Year’s resolution be to celebrate Christmas a wee bit longer than 24 hours.

How do we win the abortion battle? Maybe like this.

November 30, 2023

By Greg Erlandson
OSV News
Filed Under: Commentary

While no one homiletic style will please all Catholics, an awful lot of us pew warmers are complaining about the quality, or lack thereof, of the sermons we hear.

‘Ted Lasso’ and ‘Succession’: What makes a good dad?

By Greg Erlandson
OSV News
Filed Under: Commentary, Movie & Television Reviews

May 16, 2023
By Greg Erlandson
OSV News
Filed Under: Commentary, Journalism

As the church celebrates World Communications Day May 21, I would argue that developing “membership magazines” is an incomplete assessment of what the People of God need — indeed, of what the church needs.

A season of change, a time of hope
