Abraham's Journey
By Charlie Johnston Every person craves transcendent meaning in their life. For those whose hope is in God, that meaning is found in their hope of eternal life with their Creator. The means by which they seek to attain that goal is to love and serve God, primarily through loving and serving those around them. […]
Read More America’s Macbeth MomentBy Charlie Johnston Joe Biden’s vaxx mandate, after his destruction of U.S. borders, triggering of aggressive new inflation, and humiliating retreat from Afghanistan in a manner that empowers terrorists and encourages aggressors throughout the world, was a pitiful effort to show that he is still the boss of you. Sorry, Joe, you never were, you […]
Read More the benedict option writ largeBy Charlie Johnston In the last two weeks, news erupted that Chicago’s Cardinal Blase Cupich had banned the saying of the Hail Mary or St. Michael prayers at the conclusion of Mass. I talked to a few Priests in the Archdiocese who told me they had received no such public edict from the Cardinal, nor […]
Read More nO hONOR, nO aCCOUNTABILITY, nO fAITHBy Charlie Johnston With all of the dust and smoke being stirred up by Texas Right to Life’s (TRTL) involvement in getting the state’s heartbeat bill passed and then helping enforce it, I have never been prouder of my affiliation with this magnificent group; the biggest, best and most effective pro-life group in the world!

Read More The Fiery Trial CommencesBy Charlie Johnston I am hearing now from people who are upset over the “irresponsibility” of my take on experimental gene therapy being called a “vaccine.” You have seen a little of it in the comment section. I also get a lot of emails. Some are on the verge of hysterical – fact-free diatribes – […]
Read More Scouting the TerrainBy Charlie Johnston The first time I ever took my kids to the zoo, they were only one and two. Certainly, they enjoyed the animals, but I was a bit disappointed that they really did not evince the surprise and delight I remembered from my own first foray to a zoo as a child. Then […]
Read More The Times, They Are a-ChangingBy Charlie Johnston The pressure is mounting anew to force people to get the Covid jab to keep their jobs, get surgical procedures, or do normal communal things. This is un-American, of course, but the left hates America, anyway, so to them, that is a feature, not a flaw. I have said since last November […]
Read More Rocking the Boogie-Woogie Flu (Updated)By Charlie Johnston We had a great conference last weekend in South Dakota. Frankly, it was more like a joyful family reunion – of a family that actually likes each other.
