We need Judie’s timeless wisdom now more than ever!
There Was a Crooked Man
By Judie Brown The well-known Mother Goose rhyme that began “There was a crooked man and he walked a crooked mile” made an excellent jump rope poem and was easy for little tykes to learn. But these days when we think of crooked men, we are more likely to contemplate politicians than we are little old men with crooked cats. So, what’s the difference? The crooked man in the poem was probably...
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.

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.

Accept, or you are labeled insensitive or intolerant. Accept and allow, or you are labeled narrow-minded or discriminatory. Do not follow the teachings of the Lord, or you are labeled unbalanced or extreme. These, and more, are the ideas Planned Parenthood has subtly put into our heads and the heads of our children. These are the ideas shaping today’s culture. And these are the ideas we can no longer let continue to blossom.
The Pill Kills Families
The destruction of the family is one of the greatest disasters of the last century. It has happened subtly, almost silently, and now we are left with the carnage. How will we alter the path that so many seem so willing to travel? Will we raise our voices in protest? If we want to make changes and save lives and souls, we must.
