[UPDATE: Stupak caved. See Twitter comment on left. More later.] Will you stand with Bart Stupak? His small army of pro-life democrats is the only thing standing in the way of President Obortion's big-government Planned Parenthood bailout disguised as a health care bill... Visit standwithstupak.com to hold the line for life. While this video is sure to get a few chuckles, the situation is obviously no laughing matter.<< MORE >>

I had the great privilege of spending part of my weekend with one of the greatest bible theologians of our time. His endless resources have been a huge blessing in my life, especially this year during my studies at the Denver Catholic Biblical School. On Friday night, the CBS gave their annual "Servant of the Word" Award to Dr. Scott Hahn...If you've never read one of Dr. Hahn's books or listened to one of his talks, you have no idea what you're missing.<< MORE >>

Last August, I shared my reflection after visiting Dachau Memorial Concentration Camp. In it, I wrote about the modern-day cover-up scheme used to hide the horrific reality of abortion, much the same way the media became a useful idiot for the Nazis. This cover-up never rears its ugly head more prominently than every January 22...Watch this eye-opening video, or just the first 3 minutes, for all the proof you need.<< MORE >>

By all accounts, Arizona Fall League MVP Grant Desme was ready for a call from the big leagues. The Lord had something else in mind, and God bless Desme for answering this higher call. This story reminds me of Chase Hildenbrinck, a professional soccer player from Bloomington, IL, who also retired early for the priesthood.

Today we mark a dark day. One of the darkest ever. Thirty-seven years ago today, the Supreme Court legalized the murder of the most innocent human beings among us. So what is the infamous "Jane Roe" up to these days? << MORE >>

I thought you might be interested in seeing my mom's reaction to her Christmas present...

A copy of our letter just sent to Franciscan University, Steubenville. From now on, our donation formerly earmarked for ND football ticket lottery qualification will go to Catholic colleges worthy of the name.<< MORE >>

Having traveled extensively, there is one gift that is given almost unanimously to anyone who travels on the open road: the realization that life is so much easier when you stop trying to control everything and you learn to “just roll with it”. << MORE >>

I didn't make a new Christmas video with my students this year, but I thought it would be worth posting this classic.<< MORE >>

I have heard many arguments against the Pro-Life, Anti-Abortion cause. But there is one argument (and it is the one I hear most frequently) that makes no sense to anyone that analyzes the reality of their surroundings.<< MORE >>

Truth, in a very real sense, is concrete. It leaves an impact, an impression, on the very fabric of reality, on the very fabric of space-time. It distorts and alters things around it, just as a living tree distorts the ground as its roots disperse through the soil. Truth always leaves a trail.<< MORE >>

It's not that complicated. Bishop Tobin explains the answer to a Kennedy (and to all) in brilliant fashion. << MORE >>

You might remember every year (on the Sunday before Thanksgiving) the USCCB collects money for its Catholic Campaign for Human Development (CCHD) in churches across the nation. Beware. If your parish participates this weekend, please think twice before giving to this organization. << MORE >>

Just wanted to post a few photos from this fall in the Rockies. The Killers at Red Rocks. Rocks in the playoffs. David Gray rocks The Paramount. God rocks our world with a house won by lottery.<< MORE >>

In an effort to inject some new energy into the blog, we are pleased to welcome our good friend Tony Hollowell - an ACE teacher and truth soldier, turned cross-country cyclist, turned author, turned entrepreneur, turned education blogger, turned student of Spanish, Mexican food, and scuba diving.<< MORE >>

Celebration over the dramatic victory of a pro-life amendment in the House health care bill late Saturday night was quickly dimmed by the passage of the bill, which not only presents a plethora of other dangers, but also could lose even the hard-won pro-life language in later proceedings. << MORE >>

Sick of politics? Me too. However, the pro-life/pro-death battle is at a crossroads. Archbishop Chaput highlights the sense of urgency with which we must act. << MORE >>

Please treat yourself and watch this beautiful short film starring Eduardo Verastegui from Bella.<< MORE >>

Took me a few days. But you knew this post was coming.<< MORE >>
