Here a Baby, There a Baby
By Judie Brown The children’s rhyme “Old MacDonald Had a Farm” enumerates the animals and their sounds. It is all about living, breathing farm animals, and I recall how much my children enjoyed listening to it and singing along when they were young.

Compassion and Love Can Prevent Euthanasia
By Marie Brousseau The elderly are immense gifts to society, yet too often today we see that our culture focuses on personal fulfillment, which can then lead to the neglect of people who are no longer deemed necessary or productive.

The Body of Christ
By Judie Brown On June 7, Catholics will reverence the Solemnity of the Body and Blood of Christ.

Joy in Christ Outlasts Earthly Happiness
By Susan Ciancio I recently saw an advertisement for a Catholic T-shirt that read “Do what makes you happy holy,” and I thought Yes, they get it!

Intelligence Is a Gift
By Judie Brown In the Gospel of John, Christ prepared for His Ascension by praying to God, His Father, regarding His disciples, “May they all be one, just as, Father, you are in me and I am in you, so that they also may be in us, so that the world may believe it was… Read More »Intelligence Is a Gift

A Supreme Disappointment
By Judie Brown The United States Supreme Court is the last bastion of justice when it comes to legal questions up for debate. But as a mere body of human beings, these nine individuals are flawed because they are human. Thus, many of their decisions are equally imperfect. In matters of human sexuality and procreation,… Read More »A Supreme Disappointment

The Hound of Heaven
By Judie Brown Yesterday was the eighty-eighth birthday of my dearly departed husband Paul, who died in his eighty-third year of his life.

This week, Judie examines some recent headlines and asks, Have some people become so removed from the God who created each of us that they would prefer to haggle over trivial issues than stand up for the dignity of the human person?

Hello, God! Mankind Needs You
By Judie Brown When we hear the hymn “Christ Hath a Garden,” we feel thankful that we are planted in His grace. While this is a particularly remarkable blessing, it is also an enormous responsibility. As His children, His messengers, and His voice in the wilderness, we are obliged to proclaim Him amid burgeoning evil.… Read More »Hello, God! Mankind Needs You

The Tragedy of Vengeance
By Judie Brown The Catechism of the Catholic Church addresses vengeance thusly: Anger is a desire for revenge. “To desire vengeance in order to do evil to someone who should be punished is illicit,” but it is praiseworthy to impose restitution “to correct vices and maintain justice.” If anger reaches the point of a deliberate desire to… Read More »The Tragedy of Vengeance
