Abraham's Journey
By Charlie Johnston In my last few pieces, I have written some very sobering things about what we now face and the stark choices we must make. Now it is time to speak a little about how much fun we are going to have acting as heralds of the Triumph of the Immaculate Heart. I […]
Read More Celebrate! We Are the New Counter-CultureBy Charlie Johnston A few years back, I was struck by the previews for a movie called “The Purge.” It was about a dystopian society in which, once a year, all crime (including murder) was legalized for a day. It was not something I was interested in, but the concept was striking. What I did […]
Read More The Mob Asserts ItselfBy Charlie Johnston During the Q & A session of a presentation I was giving in the spring of 2016, someone in the southwestern crowd rose to say that she thought Donald Trump was God’s plan for America. I was not a Never Trumper, but at the time I was decidedly skeptical about the Donald. […]
Read More Feed My LambsBy Charlie Johnston I spent a good chunk of last Sunday meandering in the mountains, with an hour in contemplation and prayer at the foot of Mt. Meeker. I actually wrote a lot last week – but I’ll deal with that another time. People frequently call to ask me if this is it. Well, it […]
Read More The Time for Choosing is at HandYesterday evening I received an email from one of my spiritual mothers: Stella Davis. She asked for prayer support as tomorrow morning, Wednesday June 3rd, she, accompanied by some of the women from her apostolate, Christian Women in Action, will be on a mission of deliverance while Stella leads the prayers for cleansing our Nation’s […]
Read More Praying in SolidarityBy Charlie Johnston A friend who is a very effective activist said to me the other day that he was worried that we were going to go around kicking every barking dog so much that we miss the central point and come unprepared to the critical moment. I was delighted, for that concern has been […]
Read More Bear Fruit That Will LastBy Charlie Johnston If you have been driving long enough, you have probably had a rock hit your windshield and make a small crack – a crack that, over time, starts creeping across the window. Every week or so, you notice it has gone a little farther. When it grows into a bona fide fracture, […]
Read More Thoughts as the City of Man TopplesBy Charlie Johnston A colleague reported this delightful story to me: A small town. The Mayor (who is a medical professional) decides that continued lockdown orders are unconstitutional, given what we now know about the Coronavirus and its actual dangers. The Mayor decides the citizens of the town are responsible and smart enough to take […]
Read More The American Spirit Bubbles UpBy Charlie Johnston In the wee morning hours of this Feast Day of Our Lady of Fatima, David Daleiden and his lawyers filed suit in the Federal Court in Los Angeles, charging Planned Parenthood (PP), Kamala Harris, and California Atty. Gen. Xavier Becerra with conspiring to deprive Daleiden of his 1st and 14th Amendment rights […]
Read More Daleiden Targets Planned Parenthood, Kamala Harris, Xavier Becerra in Civil Rights Conspiracy LawsuitBy Charlie Johnston One of the things that this Corona Virus business has illuminated, but is rarely commented on, is that there are reasonable precautions we could have and should have been taking all along to defend vulnerable populations from the ravages of ordinary flu seasons. In the aftermath of all of this, I seriously […]
