Pro-life Profile: Herb Geraghty
Pro-life Profile is a new series I plan to publish regularly. These brief interviews will highlight pro-life leaders in order to dispel the preconceptions that predominate in the mainstream press and the minds of pro-choice people. I’ll begin with my Vita...
What I Read in June
I really thought I had completed six books this month. But unless I completely forgot one, it looks like I missed my goal. To be fair, it’s been a crazy month! My first read was completed at the tail end of our vacation, after I picked it up at a cool used...
What Are Your Idols?
We may not be worshipping golden statues or sacrificing people to Baal nowadays, but don’t we let attractive worldly things come between us and God? Perhaps it’s money, or power, or romance, or status, or even being right instead of being kind. You alone know what...

What I Read in April
Did I meet my reading goal? Yes, I did! Tiny Hot Dogs by Mary Giulani This is a memoir by a Georgetown alumna who wanted to be a star and ended up as caterer to the stars instead. It’s a fun read that unexpectedly turns serious near the end, and it’s...
A Short Manifesto on the Sanctity of Human Life
In June, I will be attending the Vita Institute at the University of Notre Dame, “an intensive intellectual formation program for leaders in the national and international pro-life movement.” I had to apply for this opportunity, and I thought my readers...

I have mentioned before that my favorite Gospel stories involve Peter, my favorite saint. I love Peter because he is relatable. He is human and makes mistakes, some bigger than others. Yet Jesus chose...
