3 Year Old Dead After Tragedy in Cincinnati
By Courtney Holbrook
I write this in hopes that by the time this article is published, it might be considered archaic and behind on current events. However with a pending court case, that remains to be seen.

Reality Check: Does Having Judeo-Christian Values Make You a Candidate for Genocide?
By Larry Peterson
The words--annihilation, extermination, carnage, and slaughter, to name a few, are synonyms for the word "Holocaust". The word "genocide"not invented until 1941, fits right in there. But none of those words bring us to the core of what those words truly represent. They are the by-product of the malevolent, hideous, and hate filled evil that consumes and takes control of certain human beings.

Conquest or Collectively Benevolent Progress?
By Joseph Michael
As Flannery O’Connor once wrote, “anyone who has survived childhood has enough material to write about for the rest of his life.” We each have unique childhood experiences as a result of our varied upbringings and family lives.

Fitting Harambe into Genesis
By Tony Crescio
As I am sure many of you know, recently a 3-year-old boy fell into a gorilla pen at a Cincinnati zoo where he met a 17-year-old Silverback Gorilla named Harambe. Responding to the situation, zoo authorities made the decision to put the animal down in order to save the boy’s life, which, given the gorilla’s power, could have been ended in an instant.

Harambe: What would Jesus do?
By Troy Kroening
Much talk about a gorilla killed to save a boy has been in the news. Normally, I try to stay out of the news, but I remembered this story from the Gospels and figured I would remind us of it.

Lessons I Learned from the Lutherans
By Pam Spano
Our daughter graduated from college in May. My husband and I have been to many college graduations, but this one was different. It wasn’t different because it was our daughter, it was different because she graduated from a Lutheran college.

Judge Not...
By Joseph Michael
It is natural for young people to embrace things with zeal. Whether it be social and political opinions or religious fervor, youth lends itself to jumping into things with both feet. I was no different. During my college years, when so many of my friends were abandoning their faith, my Catholic faith took on a much more orthodox appearance.

The Papal State?
By David Kamioner
What is a nation? Is it merely many people living on the same real estate, saluting the same flag? Or is something more? Perhaps an ideal, a whispered dream of freedom and grace.

Of Bathrooms and Circuses
By Joseph Michael
I’ve been hesitant to comment on the ongoing bathroom gender debate that has been somewhat disproportionately dominating our national headlines, largely because I genuinely try to observe and digest all aspects of an issue before weighing in on it.

Why I Will Fight for the Men's Room
By Samuel Matthews
On Friday, May 13, 2016 the Justice Department issued a “Dear Colleague Letter on Transgender Students.” The document was in response to North Carolina’s HB-2, and states that students have the right to use whichever bathroom corresponds with their “gender identity” instead of their biological sex.

Christ for President - 2016
By Christopher Vore
The United States of America, along with the rest of the world, has been for several months watching the latest bad reality television series. It’s known most commonly as the presidential primary season.

The Skull
By Susan Skinner
Have you ever wondered why there are so many pictures of Saints with skulls? It seems so morbid, and yet, it is so profound. Most say it is because the Saints are contemplating their own mortality. Still others say it is more; that it is representative of dying to oneself and putting on the life of Christ.

Anchor yourself
By Susan Skinner
In my prayer of late, the Anchor keeps coming to me. Now, I have always known that the anchor is a symbol of hope. But what I didn’t know was that the anchor was often used as a symbol in early Christianity. An Anchor represents safety. As I pray, I know our safety lies with the Barque of Peter, Our Lord Jesus Christ and His Mother. Anchor yourself there.

The Crusades: Good, Bad, And Ugly And What They Teach Christians Of Today
By Nate Lauer
If you are at all familiar with The Crusades, the major Christian warrior campaign of the Middle Ages to reclaim the Holy Land, the one thing that most people have in common in their mind’s eye is an image of a strong, threatening, looming knight on horseback sword in hand with a shield displaying the Saint George Flag

Movie Review: God's Not Dead, 1 and 2
By Ebeth Weidner
My husband and I went to both movies, "God's Not Dead" and both were terrific with amazingly real messages. In the first movie, it takes place at a college where a philosophy professor makes all the students sign a piece of paper saying that God is dead and sign it in order to eradicate this issue from any class discussions in the future.

God is a Family!
By Troy Kroening
This seems odd, but it isn’t odd at all. God is the perfect unity of three persons. God revealed these three persons to us as Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. Father as the parent figure. Son as the child figure. And Holy Spirit as the love that the Father has for the Son and the Son has for the Father. The Love is so perfect that it is itself a person.

By Teresa Hurst
We were camping this last weekend and my youngest daughter, Grace, wanted to run a mile around the campground in preparation for cheerleading tryouts in June.
