Abraham's Journey
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 […]
Read More Unifying the Spiritual and the MaterialFrom Charlie Johnston Helena, Alabama – I pretty much say all I have to say in this Thanksgiving video for CORAC. Thank you all for the fabulous work you have done these last four years to keep the home fires of faith, family, and freedom burning. In 2008, at the Easter Vigil at Immaculate Heart of […]
Read More Happy Thanksgiving!By Charlie Johnston Covington, Louisiana – Matt Gaetz would not have been my choice for Attorney General. If I wanted to take a blowtorch to the place and the bulldoze the rubble so it could never target honest Americans for disagreeing with the government narrative, he is the perfect guy to send.

It was on one of these forays that I discovered that if a president wanted to build a successful term, he would […]
Read More Signs and WondersBy Charlie Johnston Latrobe, Pennsylvania – I am thankful that the monster Category 5 Hurricane Milton was reduced to a more typical Category 3 by the time it made landfall in Florida, and a much weaker Category 2 shortly thereafter. The monster turned out to be significantly less bad than Hurricane Helene just before it. […]
Read More We Can Do ItBy Charlie Johnston Butler, Pennsylvania – Donald Trump began his remarks at the Butler rally on Saturday, Oct. 5, with the words in the headline, a wry reference to the interruption of the assassination attempt at the first Butler rally on July 13. The crowd roared its approval. I was sitting in the shade of […]
Read More As I Was Saying…By Charlie Johnston Omaha, Nebraska – I departed home yesterday for my latest missionary tour.
