A Confession 6:00

18h ago6:00

6:00

By Jackie Dettling When I was seventeen years old, I aborted my baby. Abortion had never previously crossed my mind. I thought I would be a virgin until I fell in love, like the women in the novels I read from the public library. The ones with the handsome man riding up on a horse. Women in the 1970s devoured these new romance novels, featuring exp…

21:23

How do we live a life truly led by the Holy Spirit? Dr. Sri explains how Simeon illustrates for us what it looks like to be receptive to the Holy Spirit. Dr. Sri shares practical ways to become more like Simeon, such as asking for divine inspiration, showing gratitude for it, practicing trust and detachment, and maintaining interior peace. Snippet …

'All Are Punish'd!' The history and import of 'Romeo and Juliet' 6:20

2d ago6:20

6:20

By Brad Miner. I got an. A. although The word "plagiarism" comes from the Latin plagiarius, meaning "kidnapper." I've known writers who've referred to a book or a poem or a play they've written as their "baby." And if somebody had pilfered their text, they'd have considered it tantamount to child abduction. The word, rendered as plagiary, didn't fi…

Lay Responsibilities and the Order of Charity 6:08

3d ago6:08

6:08

By Michael Pakaluk. I take it that charity has to be freely given by the person who shows charity. If I steal someone's credit card and purchase all kinds of goods with it for a homeless person, I am not showing charity, because that other person never gave his consent. If we are being strict about it - and why not be strict? - the $100 million tha…

What We Need, and Don't Need, Now 6:20

4d ago6:20

6:20

By Francis X. Maier. The new autobiography by Pope Francis, Hope , written with the help of Italian journalist Carlo Musso, is a mixed experience. On the one hand, it's filled with revealing personal details; Gospel wisdom on the futility of war and the urgency of mercy and forgiveness; the difference between hope and optimism; and exhortations to …

The Angelic Doctor Today 6:32

5d ago6:32

6:32

By Robert Royal. I sometimes wonder whether Thomas Aquinas, whose feast is today, hasn't been ill-served by being so universally praised - and therefore less really read. Please don't misunderstand. He's the GOAT ("Greatest of All Time," in sports parlance) among Christian thinkers. And - except for a few names like Plato and Aristotle - among all …

Excellence and Catholic Education 6:16

6d ago6:16

6:16

By David G. Bonagura, Jr. "Excellence," along with its cousin "success," is the most overused word in education. It adorns mission statements and admission pitches at all levels of both Catholic and secular schools, seeking to convince prospective students to enroll and prospective donors to give. The Catholic elementary school where I was educated…

The Ecclesial Body's Authority 5:47

7d ago5:47

5:47

by Fr. Paul D. Scalia. The Acts of the Apostles recounts Saint Paul's conversion three different times. Some details vary, but one is constant. When Saul of Tarsus, lying on the ground outside Damascus, looks into the blinding light and asks who it is, the response is the same in each telling: "I am Jesus, whom you are persecuting." Saul was foreve…

Is Jesus enough? 6:45

8d ago6:45

6:45

By Fr. Raymond J. de Souza. In the work of evangelization is it sufficient to preach Christ crucified? Or do we need to offer something more than Jesus? Does successful evangelization require Jesus plus something more immediate, practical, useful? Jesus Himself alluded to such questions when he told the crowds eagerly following Him: "Truly, truly, …

The Other Birthright Citizenship Problem 5:46

9d ago5:46

5:46

By John M. Grondelski. As the Pro-Life March takes place in Washington D.C. today, it's good to remember that January 22, 2025 was the 52ndanniversary of Roe v. Wade, the U.S. Supreme Court decision imposing abortion-on-demand through birth on all the states. Roe was the 20th century's equivalent of the Dred Scott decision. In 1857, the Supreme Cou…

Stumbling Over the 1960s 5:55

10d ago5:55

5:55

How did we get here? Where did we go wrong? Those are the questions a lot of people seem to be asking these days. Underlying those questions is the premise that things have, in fact, gone wrong. This week's inauguration underscored just how widespread this sentiment is. Whether one sees the incoming administration as evidence of just how wrong thin…

Telling Us a Story 5:20

11d ago5:20

5:20

A high-ranking prelate of the American Church says that we need to listen to the stories of people who, as I will put it and he will not, have centered their lives upon sodomy. This we need to do, he says, before we pass judgment upon them. Of course, as anyone familiar with moral theology or philosophy could tell him, we must draw a distinction be…

"We Listen And We Don't Judge"? 23:25

12d ago23:25

23:25

Dr. Sri explores the social media trend where couples reveal secrets in a judgment-free space. Delving into the implications of this phenomenon, he examines what it reveals about the human desire for connection and how it impacts modern relationships. Dr. Sri compares this trend to the true meaning and practice of Confession within Catholicism, hig…

Our (Incoherent) Post-Modern Condition 5:49

12d ago5:49

5:49

By Randall Smith. I heard a story recently from a Catholic father who invited his atheist friend to dinner with his family. Before dinner, the family always says a prayer. After dinner, the man's atheist friend complained that they had prayed while he was there. I had to laugh because I begin my classes with a prayer, and what I tell my non-Christi…

A Work of Special Providence 6:24

13d ago6:24

6:24

By Robert Royal. This is a red-letter day for the United States of America. We come to the end of a deeply divided, often bad-tempered - someone might even say venomous - national contest. The Constitutional order held, the vote was clear, and today there will be yet another peaceful transfer of power between two parties, despite little love for on…

The King's Good Servant and Conscience 5:51

14d ago5:51

5:51

By Dominic V. Cassella. I traveled to England this summer to speak at the Oxford Patristics Conference. While I was there, I had time to make two long-desired pilgrimages. The first pilgrimage came in a rush, immediately after the plane landed at Heathrow Airport. My flight had been delayed two hours, and I narrowly made my appointment at the Tower…

What Catholics Were Thinking on Election Day 6:20

15d ago6:20

6:20

By George J. Marlin. When Donald Trump lost the closely contested 2020 election to Joe Biden, 51 percent of Catholics supported him, as did 61 percent of Evangelicals, and 35 percent of Jewish voters. In 2024, Trump received a majority of the national vote thanks to the support of 58 percent of Catholics, 68 percent of Evangelicals, and 39 percent …

Sing to Me, Muse, of the Man 6:37

16d ago6:37

6:37

By Francis X. Maier. Back in my years as a religion news editor (1978-93), one of my self-imposed penances was reading The Nation. A taste for diversity, we're told, is a good thing. And at the time, the magazine was remarkably "diverse," at least in its own peculiar way. It had a wide variety of outrage from the bitter Left, curated by a tribe of …

Second Thoughts on the L.A. Fires 6:41

17d ago6:41

6:41

By Michael Pakaluk. But first a note: Be sure to tune in tonight - Thursday, January 16th at 8 PM Eastern - to EWTN for a new episode of the Papal Posse on 'The World Over.' TCT Editor-in-Chief Robert Royal and contributor Fr. Gerald E. Murray will join host Raymond Arroyo to discuss the appointment of Cardinal Robert McElroy to head the Archdioces…

An Overlooked Doctor of the Church 6:44

18d ago6:44

6:44

By Casey Chalk. When we think of the doctors of the Church - those great saints especially recognized for their contributions to Catholic theology or doctrine - we think of figures such as St. Augustine and his prolific theological output; St. Thomas and his foundational Summa Theologiae; or the sophisticated mysticism of St. Teresa of Avila. Most …

Mary, Cana, and Total Surrender 22:37

22:37

Have you ever meditated on Mary’s actions at the Wedding at Cana? Dr. Edward Sri explains the weight of Mary’s decision in this story and what it reveals about her soul. Dr. Sri encourages each of us to turn to Mary so that we can grow in trust, generosity, and courage. Snippet from the Show Mary held nothing back and trusted completely in the Fath…

Popes and POTUS 6:07

19d ago6:07

6:07

By Brad Miner. Before he leaves office, Joe Biden will not be meeting with Pope Francis as planned. The Los Angeles wildfires put an end to that - or so we're told. But the original plan got me curious about such meetings and what they mean. It's a complex but, at least sometimes, significant history. If you were to do an Internet search, you'd lik…

There Is a Light That Never Goes Out 6:32

20d ago6:32

6:32

By Auguste Meyrat. The fine-tuning argument for God, which details how a multitude of physical variables come together to enable human existence, is among the strongest an apologist can make from the facts of science. The odds of such a universe arising randomly are infinitesimal and thus strongly point to an omniscient and omnipotent Intelligence.…

The First Jubilee and the Last Medieval Pope 6:23

21d ago6:23

6:23

By Christian Browne. The first jubilee was the result of popular piety that found papal approbation. In 1299, word spread across Europe that the pilgrims to St. Peter's tomb would receive a plenary indulgence with the dawn of the new century. Responding to the growing crowds in the Eternal City, on February 22, 1300, Boniface the eighth issued a Pa…

Jimmy Carter on Adultery 6:02

22d ago6:02

6:02

By Daniel Gallagher. The year 1976 was a good one to be a six-year-old boy from Pittsburgh. I wasn't too young to realize that Watergate had shaken our confidence in Washington and that inflation was pinching our pocketbooks, but I was old enough to celebrate the bicentennial with great pride. Snug in my Steelers helmet, I sped around the neighborh…
