Open Letter to Graduating High School Seniors I’ve spent the last 4 years as a catechist to high school seniors.

I would like to... 22 May 2013 No comments Read More

Mary’s “Lectio on Life” In her Magnificat (Luke 1:46-55), Mary says, “He has filled the hungry with good things and sent the rich away empty.” That line used to bother me. It sounds mean.

Fighting for LIFE on Facebook We’re touted as the pro-life generation. I have no doubt of that, but how are we still losing to a popular culture of death? Let me give you some background information. I attended a Christian university in Texas with deep roots to Baptist traditions. Last week, I was on Facebook... 20 May 2013 2 Comments Read More

Faith is Love in Action Praise the Lord, I’ve survived yet another year of college! It wasn’t pretty. There was a lot of caffeine and a lot of hair pulling and a lot of wanting to drop out of school, but by the grace of God I survived. Unfortunately, this means that I am getting... 18 May 2013 3 Comments Read More

Two Guys a Girl and a Catholic Podcast Episode 95: Revolution in Austin Episode 95 Feedback: From The Bartlett Here is a possible topic to discuss. Competition – is it a virtue or a vice? If Jesus lead a sports league, would all the kids get trophies? What about in the free market, many demonize the free market and a key catalyst in... 17 May 2013 1 Comment Read More

The Continued Misadventures of a Catholic Politcal Advocate Today I got another lesson in political advocacy. You might recall- Wanted Concerned Catholic Voters Mr Henrichson Went to the Capitol About a month ago I was blessed with the opportunity to represent my fellow Catholics in front of the staff of Eddie Rodriguez. You may also recall that, that... 17 May 2013 3 Comments Read More

The Best Me Last week marked the premature end of an all-too-short era in the Williston house when, after a remarkable temper tantrum by my son, Lincoln, we decided to sell the Wii and Xbox on Craigslist. It all started, as most family crises do, with a father/son matchup in Mario Super Sluggers,... 16 May 2013 5 Comments Read More

In all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make straight your paths. -Proverbs 3:5-6 This verse is not like Confession; this verse is Confession. Four things happen. I entrust myself to God... 15 May 2013 No comments Read More

Meditations on Mama Mary (Review: “The World’s First Love”) Oh, May: the month of flowers, of the fullness of spring, of mothers, and especially of the Blessed Mother, Mary, the Mother of God. I must confess that I didn’t quite realize the convergence of these annual symbols when I selected my next book for this column; the Holy Spirit... 14 May 2013 1 Comment Read More

Growth in Sober Consideration “As high as the heavens are above the earth, so high are my ways above your ways and my thoughts are above your thoughts.” (Isaiah 55:9) There often seems to be a subliminal attitude, which originates in Protestant circles but pervades many Catholic parishes. Because Jesus’ life, death, and resurrection have... 14 May 2013 4 Comments Read More
