Praying with children

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

By Greg Erlandson
Filed Under: Commentary, Guest Commentary

For the past 500 years, Catholicism has made little impression on Sweden. Yet perhaps even now in this ardently secular country, there are small signs of change.

When hard conversations have to happen

September 1, 2018
By Laura Kelly Fanucci
Filed Under: Child & Youth Protection, Commentary, Guest Commentary

For children’s sake, for our church’s sake, for the sake of our own souls, we cannot choose the easy way out and avoid what is difficult to say or do.

Nothing is ‘normal’ after the death of a child

July 18, 2018
By Christina M. Delaney
Filed Under: Commentary, Guest Commentary

The day after Nick left us, I was sobbing uncontrollably, pacing the floor alone in my living room, when my husband was out. I screamed at God, saying, “How could you take my son? My son!! Why did you take him from me???!!!”

No problem, just opportunity for Spalding group after Haiti mission canceled

July 16, 2018
By Rob Medoff
Filed Under: Commentary, Guest Commentary

The power of a person’s will to do good and to share love with others is something that should never be underestimated.

July 5, 2018
By Charlie Camosy
Filed Under: Commentary, Guest Commentary, Marriage & Family Life

If 1968 was one of the worst years possible for “Humanae Vitae” to be heard, then 2018 may be one of the best. Let the conversation begin.

Independence Day: Political tips from Charles Carroll of Carrollton

July 4, 2018
By Scott McDermott
Filed Under: Commentary, Feature, Guest Commentary

What might American Catholics learn in the year 2018 from the first important Catholic politician in the English-speaking portion of the future United States?

How to promote religious liberty

June 20, 2018
By Sister Constance Veit, L.S.P.
Filed Under: Commentary, Guest Commentary, Religious Freedom

I’ve always suspected that at the root of the religious liberty controversies of the last few years is an inherent distrust or even disrespect for traditional religious beliefs.

‘Do this in memory of me’

May 28, 2018
By Father Curtiss Dwyer
Filed Under: Commentary, Feature, Guest Commentary

Memorial Day is an opportunity, as a nation, to remember and appreciate those who have died so that we might live … freely.

Yanny vs. laurel

May 24, 2018
By Brett Robinson
Filed Under: Commentary, Guest Commentary

Yanny vs. laurel is about how our senses can be tricked by subtle changes in acoustic frequencies, but it is also about how we have a strong desire to know what is true.

What’s so funny?

May 18, 2018
By John Garvey
Filed Under: Commentary, Guest Commentary, Intellect and Virtue

God made us in his image and likeness, and humor subsequently became an important part of every human culture on earth. Our laughing granddaughter is only the most immediate reminder of the joy we are meant for.

How to widen our hearts on Mother’s Day

By Laura Kelly Fanucci
Filed Under: Commentary, Guest Commentary

The church counts on so many to “mother” its children — women religious, teachers, nurses and catechists. Giving thanks for this wider vision of motherhood is a rich celebration of God at work in our midst.
