Abraham's Journey
By Charlie Johnston On May 13, 1981, the anniversary of the first apparition at Fatima, a crazed man tried and failed to assassinate Pope St. John Paul the Great.

For it must needs be that offenses come, But woe to that man by whom the offence comes.” -Matthew 18:7 On Friday, July 5, the Vatican found Archbishop Carlo Maria Vigano guilty of schism and excommunicated him.

Read More OffensesBy Charlie Johnston Beloved, do not be surprised at the fiery ordeal Which comes upon you to prove you, As though something strange were happening to you. -1 Peter 4:12 A dark pall shrouds the earth these days.

Read More Can’t Anybody Here Play This Game?By Charlie Johnston I am slow to get into religious disputes with people of good will. If I think them to be in error, I figure God will enlighten them – or me – in His own good time. He may very well have some critical things to teach us during the period of error. […]
