Abraham's Journey
By Charlie Johnston I have written obliquely before of how disturbed I am at the rise of antisemitism in some quarters of the right and the traditionalist Catholic community. I’m going to be more blunt now. If you are afflicted with this, you have welcomed a demon into your counsels. Keep nurturing it and the […]
Read More The Vine and the BranchesBy Charlie Johnston There was a fellow I collaborated on five or six big campaigns with. It was a great partnership most of the time. He loved the administrative duties – which often weary me. I loved strategy and the field, meeting people, exhorting them, unifying them, laughing with them and fighting together with them. […]
Read More We Are God’s BelovedBy Charlie Johnston “But even if we or an angel from heaven should preach a gospel other than the one we preached to you, let them be under God’s curse!” – Galatians 1:8 When an organization is fractured by deep divisions, I usually encourage a “Don’t spook the horses” policy for about a year. That […]
Read More Spooking the HorsesBy Charlie Johnston I have had several people contact me to see if I am okay, due to the sporadic nature of my posting lately. I did have a significant and serious health issue arise. As is my wont, I did some heavy research, and came up with a treatment protocol. (As you know, I […]
Read More Watching the World BurnBy Charlie Johnston “I come not to bring peace, but a sword.” – Matthew 10:34 We had a great National Conference. Bishop Strickland not only gave a great talk, but was there all three days interacting individually with people. We’ll give you a full rundown in our CORAC Newsletter at the end of the month. […]
Read More Comes the SwordBy Charlie Johnston I don’t think my sporadic bouts of illness have much to do with my health (though I am delighted to have most of my bodily systems booted back up after my recent bout with Covid). Rather, I think health issues are one of the leashes, prods, and canes God uses to direct […]
Read More It is Now Us in His Winnowing FanBy Charlie Johnston Waukegan, Illinois – On December 23, 2020, I wrote here that I thought the Covid Shots were likely to become the greatest medical disaster in modern history. My essay, “Embers in the Wind” is a fascinating read nearly five years later. In the first two paragraphs I vastly underestimated people’s tolerance for […]
Read More A Future and a HopeBy Charlie Johnston Houston, Texas – When I was a little boy, just after starting elementary school, I became a great admirer of President Kennedy. Every time he gave a speech on all the networks, I watched raptly. Of course, I had the mind of a child, so I did not always properly interpret what […]
Read More The Revolution Gathers ForceBy Charlie Johnston Shawnee, Kansas – As I have been saying for months now, the power of darkness has been broken. You might wonder, if that is so, why is there so much strife and fury sounding across the land? Simple: when sunlight bursts upon a coven of vampires there is a lot of shrieking, […]
Read More As the Walls Come Tumbling Down…By Charlie Johnston Thomasville, Georgia – Our own Steve Baker formulated one of the more penetrating questions to a piece I wrote a few days ago that I decided to answer his question in the form of another column. First, it would be good for you to look at the column in question (or, at […]
