Headlines Deal Hudson Recalls: First Meeting Mother Angelica By Deal W Hudson | September 24, 2013 I had little idea what to expect when I arrived at EWTN (Eternal Word Television Network) for my interview on Mother Angelica Live. From previous broadcasts I knew my host could be direct and acerbic on the subject of the Church. But I wasn't prepared for the woman I met, especially her humor, savvy, subtlety, and penetrating insight into the spiritual life. Continue Reading... US Catholic Bishops Urge Passage of the Marriage and Religious Freedom Act, Offer Backgrounder By United States Conference of Catholic Bishops | September 24, 2013 "This non-discrimination bill is significant, indeed, very important," said Archbishop Cordileone. "It would prevent the federal government from discriminating against religious believers who hold to the principle that marriage is the union of one man and one woman. This is of fundamental importance, as increasingly such individuals and organizations are being targeted for discrimination by state governments - this must not spread to the federal government."

Landry | September 24, 2013 Just as the Temple in Jerusalem needed to be restored with hard work, incredible generosity, and perseverance, so each of us and the Church as a whole are in constant need of reform, of getting back into shape, by a greater conformity with the True Temple who is Christ.

Robert Small, Common Core and School Choice By Deacon Keith Fournier | September 24, 2013 A parent named Robert Small lawfully attended an open school meeting last Thursday, September 19, 2013. He sought to ask a very legitimate question and was forcibly thrown out after being manhandled by an abusive security guard. He was subsequently arrested. What was Mr. Small's infraction? What behavior did he engage in to precipitate this kind of treatment? He dared, as a parent with two children in the public school system, to question the efficacy and quality of the common core curriculum. The abusive handing of Robert Small may become one of the flash points which history records as it recounts the educational revolution which is underway in the United States of America, the movement toward parental or school choice.

Intent upon reaching an audience outside the visible bounds of the Church, the Holy Father has been speaking about the Catholic faith in an engaging, challenging, and even provocative manner. His goal? To reach the un-churched, the fallen-away, and the secularists of the modern age.  Why It All Comes Down to What Catholics Will Do and What They Won't Do: A Letter to Catholics By Deal W Hudson | September 23, 2013 Our faith is a gift, not a threat. Our faith does not teach us to follow the rules and we "will be just fine." Our faith does not teach us to view the good life as a road burdened by the weight of dreary obligations. Our faith does not teach us to just get by, to be there, follow the rules, and keep the obligations. Our faith is not that of a tribe, into which we happen to be born. Our faith is not a list of minimum requirements that get us into heaven. That kind of faith will never be Evangelical, will never appear attractive to the newcomer, and, most importantly, will never come close to representing the living tradition. Pope Francis I, I believe, is trying to remind us of this too and being misunderstood in the process. Continue Reading... Pope Francis: Every Unborn Child Has the Lord's Face By Andrew M. Greenwell, Esq. | September 23, 2013 Every child not allowed to be born, but unjustly condemned to be aborted, has the face of Jesus Christ, the Lord's face, inasmuch as before he was born, and while born, he experiences the rejection of the world.

Reflection on the Catholic Catechism: Understanding Our Knowledge of God By Michael Terheyden | September 23, 2013 We have considered some of the ways we come to know God in the world and through human experience. But we might ask, how reliable or meaningful is our knowledge? The Catechism of the Catholic Church offers us some compelling answers.
