The Great Deception
By Susan Skinner

A Governor's Tale: Satire for the Empire State
By E.M. McCarthy
The elegant chandelier filled the conference room with light. Twelve men entered, dressed in tuxedos and smoking cigars. One carried a baseball bat, swinging it as he entered.

Lessons We (Probably) Won't Learn From the Coventry Catholic Debacle
By Anthony S. Layne
Believe it or not, this is my fifth attempt at this article on the confrontation between Nathan Phillips of the Omaha Tribe and the Covington Catholic High students.

An Open Letter to My Aborted Daughter, Nicole
By Dr. Lin Weeks Wilder
I watched the movie, Gosnell, last night because I felt I owed you that. To know precisely what was done to you all those years ago, while I slept, unconscious. I thought I would sob through the entire film; instead, I was dry-eyed throughout. I could think of little else all evening as I thought about the woman I had been and what I did to you.

Deceptive Reporting Hurts Pro-Life March
By Birgit Jones
The occasion of 2019 Annual March for Life was the scene of quite an unsettling encounter.

Nigerian Deacon's Ministry Gives Hope to Orphan Children
By Kevin J. Banet
Little Scholastica rubs her older sister Fustina’s face in a playful manner, just like any other three-year old. But Fustina, who is six years old, seems oblivious to the antics, as seen in a video. Her frozen stare at the camera seems to betray unhappy memories. Those memories might be that of a terrorist attack that destroyed her family’s village only two years earlier, when she was four.

3 Things to Learn From the March Fiasco
By Birgit Jones
Do not turn on your own. Especially when the conclusive facts are not in. This was the bitter lesson learned by the Covington Catholic High School teens at the conclusion of the March for Life. Not only the secular media, but even their own school, the Diocese of Covington, and pro-life leaders initially gave credence to the false narrative given. Many still persist.

A Devotional: Dealing with Difficult People
By Dr. Anne DeSantis
When we are happy and feel accepted and loved, life often feels positive. When we feel alone, rejected and insecure, life feels challenging.
