George Weigel April 24, 2019
By George Weigel

George Weigel November 30, 2018
By George Weigel
Filed Under: Blog, The Catholic Difference

A century after the Armistice

George Weigel November 14, 2018
By George Weigel

George Weigel July 14, 2018
By George Weigel
Filed Under: Commentary, The Catholic Difference

Filed Under: Commentary, The Catholic Difference

National identity is a precious thing, but it can only lead to a true civic patriotism if it deals with history honestly.

Lent calls us to embrace the humility of the Gospel publican and confess that we have sinned, knowing that God’s mercy can heal what is broken in us if we cooperate with his grace. 

Men without conviction, churches without people

George Weigel February 8, 2018
By George Weigel

Christianity is dying in western Europe. But the Gospel has power, and those who believe that, and preach it in the conviction that it can transform and ennoble lives, can still get a hearing.

The Catechism of the Catholic Church at 25

George Weigel October 19, 2017
By George Weigel
Filed Under: Blog, The Catholic Difference

If you’ve not read it, this silver jubilee is a good occasion to do so. Then share the Catechism with a friend.  

It’s a culture war, stupid

George Weigel August 28, 2017
By George Weigel
Filed Under: Commentary, Respect Life, The Catholic Difference

To reduce a human being to an object whose value is measured by “utility” is to destroy one of the building blocks of the democratic order – the moral truth that the American Declaration of Independence calls the “inalienable” right to “life.”

George Weigel June 15, 2017
By George Weigel
Filed Under: Commentary, The Catholic Difference
