An Interview with Catholic Children’s Author Daniel McInerny
I read (and LOVED) Daniel McInerny’s Kingdom of Patria books (reviewed at CatholicMom.com a while back) and couldn’t resist the chance to interview him. Tell us a little about yourself, Daniel. I am the husband of the beautiful and talented Amy McInerny and the father of three adorable and perfect (so say their grandparents) children: [...]
One Catholic Media Person’s Experience of Covering Breaking Papal History
I went to bed on Sunday, February 10, all keyed up for a busy week as a member of the Catholic media. After all, Ash Wednesday was mere days away, and for someone with plenty of segments to cover, this meant that the news drought between the March for Life and Lent would be over, [...]
Margaret Rose Realy: Cultivating the Garden with Words
I thought I knew, long before Lent started, what my Lenten reading plan would be. (In fact, I went so far as to write about it.) I should have known better, I suppose. The weekend after I “set” that reading plan, I read the brand-new book by Margaret Rose Realy, Cultivating God’s Garden through Lent. [...]
Pursuing a Meaningful Life: An interview with author Randy Hain
In a spirit of full disclosure, I am a Randy Hain fan. As a friend, he has been the source of unfailing encouragement, fellowship, and wisdom. Yet there are many dimensions to the man… Randy is a husband, father, writer, speaker, business leader, and much more. His third book, Something More: The Professional’s Pursuit of [...]
Catholics Come Home – God’s Extraordinary Plan for Your Life
“We are in the midst of a New Evangelization; and I believe this book is a signal moment in its success. This book is a grace from God. It is also a sign that will lead many folks back home to the family of God, which is the Catholic Church.” –Dr. Scott Hahn This is [...]
Kathleen Basi and Her Passion for Lent
One of the great joys of getting connected with other Catholic writers is finding out about the great work they’re doing. My family benefits, too, because I find myself stretching and applying my faith to our family life in ever-creative and practical ways. Today, I’m delighted to share a conversation I had with Catholic wife, [...]
How can Zombies be Catholic… and other Questions with Ryan Charles Trusell
Allow me to introduce you to something awesome in Catholic writing: the the man behind Labora Editions. Ryan Charles Trusell caught my attention after everyone started raving about his Ora et Labora et Zombies after the Catholic New Media Conference in Dallas last summer. I can’t resist a good story, and one that involves actual [...]
Clement of Rome & the Didache – A New Translation and Theological Commentary By Dr. Kenneth J. Howell
If a fulfilling career consists of working with terrific people, then I must have one of the greatest jobs on earth. After twenty years in financial and executive roles, it has been my privilege since 2010 to work with The Coming Home Network International (CHNetwork), a Catholic apostolate that helps non-Catholic clergy and laity to [...]
Meet Novelist Katharine Grubb
These days, I have plenty of nonfiction and Catholic books coming my way for review. I love that, but what I really, REALLY love is a good novel. It seems that’s harder than ever to find. I didn’t think my standards were impossibly high, but apparently they are. By “good novel,” I want something that [...]
Speaking with Christopher West about “Fill These Hearts”
I remember so clearly when I first “met” Christopher West. I had picked up a CD of one of his talks after a Jason Evert talk at a neighboring parish. I was stuffing envelopes in our parish office, pregnant and wondering if this “Theology of the Body” stuff was really worth fiddling with, when I [...]
