Abraham's Journey
By Charlie Johnston Sometime later today the Rocky Mountains will come into view and I will be within sight of home. Thanks be to God. It has been a very busy couple of weeks, but an incredibly productive one. I can’t wait to tell you about the amazing field day we had in Lone Rock, […]
Read More On TargetBy Charlie Johnston I was somewhat startled at the reaction to my last piece on my disaffection with Pope Francis and his crew of theological vandals. Oh, I had a few of the usual cranks who explained to me how I am wrong about everything or citing their simplistic literal take on some prophecy to […]
Read More Truth or ConsequencesBy Charlie Johnston Pinckney, Michigan – A couple of years ago, while discussing the depravities of the abortion industry with David Daleiden, I exclaimed, “There’s no bottom to this. Every time you think you have gotten to the bottom of something you discover a whole new chamber of horrors hidden beneath what you had already […]
Read More Cast Off the Cloak of LiesBy Charlie Johnston Plymouth, Michigan – The purpose of a justice system is…justice. It seems a downright quaint notion in a time when the law has been fully weaponized as a political cudgel against conservatives and Christians, when the FBI has supplanted the Ku Klux Klan as the paramilitary arm of the Democratic Party, and […]
Read More Injustice For AllBy Charlie Johnston Casselton, North Dakota – When the anti-Catholic hate group, the Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence, was invited to be honored before a game at Chavez Ravine, the Los Angeles Dodgers stadium, the Archdiocese of Los Angeles criticized the Dodgers for honoring the group and Archbishop Jose Gomez expressed his “disappointment, pain and dismay” […]

My Dad passed suddenly last November, so this was my first without Dad in this world. It was also the first in which I am the oldest father in my family line. In fact, except for an aunt three […]
Read More Remembrance of Things Past; Anticipation of Things to ComeBy Charlie Johnston Several years ago, while chatting in the cool of the evening, my son (who was then a police officer) told me he was glad he was the one who had to carry guns for his work instead of me. Startled, I asked him why. “Everybody thinks you’re such a nice, friendly guy,” […]
Read More Mene, Mene, Tekel UpharsinBy Charlie Johnston Then war broke out in heaven. Michael and his angels fought against the dragon, and the dragon and his angels fought back. But they were defeated and there was no longer any place for them in heaven. (Rev. 12:7,8) A question: When did the war break out in heaven? According to Revelation […]
Read More On Earth As it is in Heaven…By Charlie Johnston I took the above picture of Fern Springs in Yosemite 11 years ago in the course of my pilgrimage. I played around with various filters and effects and loved the way it turned out. (Yeah, I know, don’t give up my day job.) It seems incongruous to the title of this piece, […]
Read More Gangster Government Gears up for WarBy Charlie Johnston Credible rumblings suggest that, before the spring is over, the Pope will effectively ban the Tridentine Mass altogether. While Pope Francis has made no secret of his contempt for the Traditional Latin Mass (TLM), that may or may not be true. A classic tactic of battle, either political or actual, is to […]
