The Ripple Effect Every now and then, a note stops you in your tracks, not because it’s long or poetic, but because it quietly reveals a story that’s been unfolding beyond your sight. This week, I received one of those notes from a young man I’ve known since his 1L year. Back…
Beautifully said, @bridgettwagner I never had the chance to know Ed Feulner personally. But I’ve been shaped by those he led and mentored, and mentored well. That’s the mark of a true builder. His influence ripples outward, far beyond his own reach. He leaves a legacy not only…
Ed Feulner was a movement builder, a think tank entrepreneur, and an incredible mentor and friend to thousands over the course of his extraordinary life. He will be remembered as a devoted husband and father, faithful Catholic, and selfless servant in the cause of freedom.
I respectfully disagree. The words I uttered to a pastor I recently met. He told me about a father who grieves as he watched his daughter, once seemingly strong in faith, go off to an elite university, and within a year, apologize for her privilege, and walked away from her…
Our hearts are heavy, yet rejoicing, as we share the news that our beloved pastor and teacher John MacArthur has entered into the presence of the Savior. This evening, his faith became sight. He faithfully endured until his race was run. 2 Timothy 4:1-8
Our hearts break with Texas. We grieve with the families who now face the unimaginable, the sudden loss, the long wait, the aching silence. In moments like these, words feel small. But we hold fast to this: God is not distant from this pain. He is near to the brokenhearted,…
Why I love the Fourth of July! I just finished rewatching John Adams on HBO. It’s become a kind of annual pilgrimage, a return to first things. To the moral seriousness of the founding generation. To the stubborn virtue of a man like Adams, rigid, sometimes graceless, but…
When Silence is the Best Choice I begin most days in silence, before the meetings, the inbox, and the headlines, with a workout, a cup of coffee, and a kind of stillness that’s become more than a habit. It’s become a teacher. In that early hour, when no one is asking anything of…
After twenty-four years of marriage, Mat and I find ourselves quietly marveling at the tapestry we’ve woven, thread by thread, year by year. It’s a story of beauty. Of joys that came unexpectedly, of sorrows that visited uninvited, of trials that tested more than we thought they…
This moment presents a meaningful opportunity for the MP to reflect on his stance and reconsider his support for assisted suicide, so that he may be reconciled and return to receiving the Eucharist. As St. John Paul II reminds us: “The Eucharist is too great a gift to tolerate…
Chris Coghlan, a Liberal Democrat MP who voted in favor of assisted suicide, was denied Holy Communion by a Catholic priest in the United Kingdom. This moment presents a meaningful opportunity for the MP to reflect on his stance and reconsider his support for assisted suicide, so…
The B-2 bomber—stealthy, silent, and stunning in its design. It moves like a shadow across the sky, a reminder that American strength doesn’t always roar—it often whispers with purpose. What stirred me most wasn’t just the technology, but the conviction behind it: that freedom…

Absolutely right. This is more than a case, it’s a stand against the erasure of hard-won protections for women. @KristenWaggoner is doing what principled leaders do: reminding us that Title IX was never meant to be a casualty of ideological drift. Alanna and her teammates…
Love this ad! @xx_xyathletics continues to do an outstanding job amplifying women’s voices and highlighting their courage. We couldn’t be prouder of Alanna and the three other female athletes who stood with her. They were indeed some of the first in the nation to speak out.…
“We are not supposed to do what is popular, we’re supposed to do what is right. We’re supposed to interpret the Constitution and figure out what it means and then apply the Constitution,” Alito said. Many repeat such principles. Justice Alito embodies them. His approach is not…
