Guest Commentary

A new St. Nicholas to gather us to hearth and home

December 19, 2018
By Brett Robinson
Filed Under: Commentary, Guest Commentary

Perhaps we need a new, albeit very different, St. Nicholas. Someone who recognizes our poverty, a poverty of attention and time, and can fill our homes and hearts with something far more valuable than more screens and chocolate coins.

Children of all ages

December 3, 2018
By Kevin J. Parks
Filed Under: Commentary, Guest Commentary

Kevin Parks, Catholic Review visual journalist, reflects on some recent assignments that bring the preciousness of life and joy into focus.

Say an Ave there for me

November 25, 2018
By John Garvey
Filed Under: Commentary, Guest Commentary, Intellect and Virtue, Respect Life

What many Americans may still not realize is that Ireland is embracing the culture of death with a zeal and gusto that few other countries — even traditionally secularized ones — would be so foolish as to imitate.

Path for reform goes through Rome

November 16, 2018
By Greg Erlandson
Filed Under: Child & Youth Protection, Commentary, Guest Commentary

Rome does indeed move slowly, but the U.S. bishops, who are clearly feeling the pressure from their people, are committed to applying pressure of their own.

Meeting two worlds

October 31, 2018
By Lexi Poindexter
Filed Under: Commentary, Guest Commentary

My trip to Israel this summer made me aware that everyone’s world is a world dependent upon a single perspective — formed by a single definition of “normal.”

Getting real about our challenges

October 25, 2018
By Greg Erlandson
Filed Under: Commentary, Guest Commentary

We need a church that recovers what it means to be a family, a family that can disagree and argue passionately about things, but also that loves one another.

A smile and a handshake

October 24, 2018
By Sarah Jarzembowski
Filed Under: Commentary, Guest Commentary, Young Adult Ministry

My encounter with the Holy Father reminds me that the Holy Spirit is working in small yet profound ways.

One thing leading to another

October 2, 2018
By Father Eugene Hemrick
Filed Under: Commentary, Guest Commentary

Bigmindedness looks at the connection between present concerns and future consequences, reminding us that one thing leads to another and to take seriously what that other might be.

Oktoberfest carries new meaning

September 27, 2018
By Kevin J. Parks
Filed Under: Commentary, Guest Commentary

A visit with his aunt leads Catholic Review visual journalist Kevin J. Parks to discover more about his German heritage.

Hoops for Haiti

September 26, 2018
By Loyola Blakefield
Filed Under: Commentary, Guest Commentary, Missions

Students from Loyola Blakefield in Towson recently participated in a mission trip to Haiti, where 80 percent of the population lives below the poverty level.

The way forward in an age of attention deficit

September 25, 2018
By Brett Robinson
Filed Under: Commentary, Guest Commentary

Each new media technology has given the church new channels for sharing the joy of the Gospel, but the story has not always gotten through.

Praying with children

September 20, 2018
By John Garvey
Filed Under: Commentary, Guest Commentary, Intellect and Virtue

The faith of the world’s young people is precisely what the present crisis is destroying. It will not be enough, though it is certainly necessary, for the church to root out the evil in her midst and bring about some semblance of justice.
