"Always be ready to give an explanation to anyone who asks you for a reason for your hope"- 1 Peter 3:15
As Catholics, we know that men and women are distinct – and in certain ways, that makes us different. When we take a well-known movie and just switch out a man for a woman, we are acting like men and women are merely interchangeable. Rather than developing a strong female character based on the unique traits of women, we are acting …
Every person has the desire to have an intimate relationship with God, but the way to go about it can be challenging. There are so many beautiful ways to pray, but sometimes, having structure can be helpful. Born to Soar: Unleashing God’s Word in Your Life by Melissa Overmyer is a “prayer and journal experience” …
It always surprises me when people are shocked that I tell them I believe Catholicism is the only religion where we can get the fullness of the Truth. Instead of arguing about the validity of the belief that the Catholic Church is true, they are shocked that I would make such a bold statement about …
How would you sum up your vision for this initiative in one or two sentences? Our Mission is to inspire men to pray the rosary daily as a remedy for our sinfulness, out of obedience to our Heavenly Mother, for the protection of our families, and for mercy on this nation. Men do not believe …
Catholics sometimes joke about certain saints “following” them. For me, it has been Saint Margaret Mary Alacoque. The opportunity to read this book (I received a free copy in exchange for my honest review) was another way she had come into my life. Update: I re-read the book again in 2018.

Fortunately, I was coincidentally (or perhaps, God-incidentally) given the opportunity to read Ignite: Read the Bible Like Never Before by Deacon Harold Burkes-Sivers and Sonja Corbitt. I was given a free copy of this book in exchange for my honest review. …
I’m really bad at praying the rosary. It wasn’t something I grew up with, and though I’ve grown in my faith, it is still something I really struggle with. I hoped that reading Praying the Rosary Like Never Before by Edward Sri (which I got a free copy of in exchange for my honest review) …
Engineering is a challenging career. The work itself is challenging: creative thinking, trying to solve problems that might not even be fully defined, developing solutions based on limited information, trying to find opportunities for improvement while fighting against the attitudes of complacency from people who have “always done it this way.” However, these external factors …
As a Catholic engineer, I’m obviously drawn to geeky things and Catholic things. When I discovered Thy Geekdom Come on Facebook, I was thrilled to find the perfect blend of both. Now, I am happy to introduce you to the man behind it and share some of the other great things he does. Tell us …
Last week, I wrote a post that defined poly relationships, explained why they are wrong, and addressed some popular internet arguments for poly relationships. This week, I want to explain why we should care and how we as Christians might respond. Why We Should Care I imagine some supporters of poly relationships are questioning why …
