We need Judie’s timeless wisdom now more than ever!
A Deadly Valentine
By Judie Brown We just celebrated Valentine’s Day—one of the most romantic days of the year. It is also the feast day of Saint Valentine, about whom very little is known. It is said that he took risks to marry couples during a time when Christians were being persecuted. Further, he was pressured to renounce his faith and was beaten to death with clubs and then beheaded for not succumbing to such...
Tolerance as Moral Principle
It seems to be the mantra of today’s society that we are told to be tolerant and to just accept the changes in morality that occur almost daily. Belief in God’s commandments is scoffed at. Holding fast to faith is looked down upon. When we allow morality to fade away and tolerance to take over, the face of God is obscured and His teachings lost. The result is a society also lost a society aching and hurting.
Stop Big Abortion
Big Abortion flourishes because not all human beings are valued. Big Abortion flourishes because a preborn baby’s life is not given the respect it deserves. Today’s hedonistic and selfish society cannot seem to grasp the horror that, with every abortion, a preborn baby is slaughtered. Can we combat this? There are ways.
A Planned Parenthood Parable
Planned Parenthood tries with all its might to persuade people to its side, to lead them to think and believe that there is nothing wrong with aborting a child. The organization has even brought in “clergy” to attempt to justify its own agenda. Planned Parenthood does not want you to know the truth. In fact, PP is scared that you will find out the truth.
Catholic Bishops and Grave Responsibilities
Catholic clergy must lead their flock, must not turn a blind eye to the tenets of the faith. They must stand up when an injustice is done and show the great power of Our Lord. Is this being done today?
Misery and Joy in a Lost City
In a city that’s gone bankrupt and is riddled with violence, it’s easy to get lost in hopelessness. But one organization wants to change this. One organization wants to bring hope and love to women and babies by teaching the value of preborn life. So although devastation abounds, optimism is not dead.
A Deep Sadness Amidst Unthinkable Crimes
When tragedy occurs, the tendency of most people is to ask, “Why?” We want to know why it happened and how it can be prevented in the future. These are certainly laudable goals. But maybe some reflection is needed as well reflection upon the values and morals in society and the changes that have taken place over the last several decades. Reflection upon the family, upon how we are raising our children, about the influences and the bombardment of immorality. If we are to effect change, we must first look here.
