  • Ralph Lauren, American Patriot

    January 21, 2025 - 5:00am

    On January 4 , President Joe Biden honored nineteen individuals with the Medal of Freedom, the highest civilian honor. While one could argue that some were less deserving of the award than others, I believe that one honoree deserved it without question: Ralph Lauren, a living embodiment of the American dream who in turn made America his muse. His designs pay homage to the cowboy, the soldier, the Ivy Leaguer. For Lauren, no aspect of the American character isn’t worth celebrating—a welcome contrast to the self-loathing that usually pervades the upper echelons of society.

  • Begging Your Pardon

    January 20, 2025 - 5:00am

    Who attempts to overthrow a government without weapons? Why would the alleged leader of an insurrection authorize military force to protect the government, and why would the alleged insurrection victims countermand that authorization? How do people who listen to speeches about democratic procedures and election integrity in one location transform into enemies of the Constitution after walking a mile and a half to the east? Who believes that interrupting a vote would overturn a government? If there was an attempted insurrection, why would a notoriously creative and aggressive prosecutor fail to find any basis for filing insurrection charges?

  • To Hell With Notre Dame?

    January 20, 2025 - 5:00am

    I first visited the University of Notre Dame du Lac (to use its proper inflated style) in 2017 as a guest of some friends in the law school. By then I had already hated the place for more or less my entire life. For me, Notre Dame was synonymous with the Roman Catholic Church as I had known her in childhood: dated folk art aesthetics (has anyone ever written about how ugly the buildings are?), the Breaking Bread missalette, the so-called “Celtic” Alleluia, the thought (though not the actual writings) of Fr. Richard McBrien, jolly fat Knights of Columbus in their blue satin jackets, avuncular permanent deacons named Tom, Pat, or, occasionally, Dave. At the age of twenty-seven, I expected to find preserved something of the religious atmosphere of the middle years of John Paul II’s papacy: the quiet half-acknowledged sense of desperation, the all-pervading horror of unbelief that could never be allowed formally to take shape among the grandchildren of European immigrants who had done well for themselves in the professions—perhaps too well.

  • The Mercurial Bob Dylan

    January 17, 2025 - 5:00am

    There’s a version of Bob Dylan for everyone: small-town boy from Duluth, Minnesota; scrappy folk troubadour of Greenwich Village; electric rock poet who defied expectations at Newport; introspective born-again Christian; Nobel Laureate. As any journalist who has interviewed him will attest, Dylan is an enigma. Capturing the whole man is harder than making a bead of mercury sit still in one’s palm.

  • The Theology of Music

    January 17, 2025 - 5:00am

    É lisabeth-Paule Labat (1897–1975) was an accomplished pianist and composer when she entered the abbey of Saint-Michel de Kergonan in her early twenties. She devoted her later years to writing theology and an “Essay on the Mystery of Music,” published a decade ago as The Song That I Am , translated by Erik Varden . It’s a brilliant and beautiful essay, but what sets it apart from most explorations of music is its deeply theological character.

  • Audience with the Augustinian Sisters, Servants of Jesus and Mary

    July 5, 2025 - 6:11am
    This morning, the Holy Father Leo XIV received in audience the the Augustinian Sisters, Servants of Jesus and Mary, to whom he addressed the following greeting:

     

    Greeting of the Holy Father

    In the name of the Father, of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit,

    Peace be with you!

    Dear sisters,

    I am pleased to meet you at the end of your provincial Chapter: in this week of prayer, discernment and joint planning, you have been able to renew your adhesion to the charism of your foundress, the venerable Sister Maria Teresa Spinelli.

    While the process of her canonization continues, your journey of holiness proceeds too! As Augustinian Sisters, Servants of Jesus and Mary, I encourage you to let yourselves be guided anew by the name you bear. Indeed, the service you carry out every day is realized first and foremost in the consecration of life to the Lord, and is strengthened in sincere devotion to his and our Mother.

    By imitating Sister Maria Teresa, you will therefore be patient in tribulations, because it is precisely in our trials that the Lord confirms his faithfulness; you will be courageous in the mission, so that the educational work to which you dedicate yourselves may form wise minds and hearts capable of listening and of passion for humanity; you will be unwavering in the following of Christ, who is “the way, the truth and the life” ( Jn 14:6), and therefore the criterion for all our cultural initiatives. We know that a culture without truth becomes an instrument of the powerful: instead of freeing consciences, it confuses and distracts them according to the interests of the market, fashion or worldly success.

    In this regard, I advise you to pick up again a work by the holy Doctor, our father Augustine, De Magistro , to contemplate it in the near future, as you gather the fruits of your Chapter. In this work, Augustine affirms that external teaching must always lead to the encounter with the inner Master, who is Jesus (cf. I, 11). In his name, I wish all the best to your communities, and I wholeheartedly impart the apostolic blessing to you. Thank you!

  • Audience with teachers of Catholic schools in Ireland, England, Wales and Scotland, and with young people from the diocese of Copenhagen

    July 5, 2025 - 4:20am
    This morning, in the Clementine Hall of the Vatican Apostolic Palace, the Holy Father Leo XIV received in audience teachers of Catholic schools in Ireland, England, Wales and Scotland, and with young people from the diocese of Copenhagen.

    The following is the Pope’s greeting to those present during the course of the meeting:

     

    Greeting of the Holy Father

    In the name of the Father, and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit.

    Peace be with you!

    Good morning and welcome to the Vatican.

    Your Excellencies, Dear priests and young friends,

    I am pleased to greet all of you on the occasion of your pilgrimage to Rome during this Jubilee Year, which as you know is focused on the theological virtue of hope.  In particular, I welcome the young people from the Diocese of Copenhagen, which is  this  group, together with the teachers from Ireland, England, Wales and Scotland.

    You are following in the footsteps of countless pilgrims from your various countries, who for centuries have been making this same pilgrimage to Rome, to the “Eternal City”.  Indeed, Rome has always been a special home for Christians, since it is the place where the Apostles Peter and Paul gave the supreme witness to their love for Jesus by offering their lives as martyrs.  As the Successor of Peter, I wish to express my gratitude for your presence here, and I pray that by visiting the various holy sites you may draw inspiration and hope from the profound example of how the saints and martyrs imitated Christ.

    A pilgrimage has a vital part to play in our life of faith, for it removes us from our homes and our daily routines, and gives us time and space to encounter God more deeply.  Such moments always help us to grow, for through them the Holy Spirit gently fashions us to be ever more closely conformed to the mind and the heart of Jesus Christ.

    In a particular way, dear brothers and sisters, young people gathered with us this morning, remember that God has created each one of you with a purpose and a mission in this life.  Use this opportunity for listening, for prayer, so that you may hear more clearly God’s voice calling you deep within your hearts. I would add that today, so often, we lose the ability to listen, to really listen. We listen to music, we have our ears flooded constantly with all kinds of digital input, but sometimes we forget to listen to our own hearts and it’s in our hearts that God speaks to us, that God calls us and invites us to know him better and to live in his love. And through that listening you might be open to allowing God’s grace to strengthen your faith in Jesus (cf.  Col  2:7), so that you might more readily share that gift with others.

    And addressing you, dear teachers: what I have just said to the young people applies equally to you, especially given your important role in the formation of today’s youth: children, teenagers, young adults. For they will look up to you as models: models in life, models of faith. They’ll look to you particularly as to  how  you teach and how you live.  I hope that, each day, you will nurture your relationship with Christ, who gives us the pattern of all authentic teaching (cf  Mt  7:28), so that, in turn, you may guide and encourage those entrusted to your care to follow Christ in their own lives.

    And finally, when all of you return home, please remember that a pilgrimage does not end, it shifts its focus to the daily “pilgrimage of discipleship”. We are all pilgrims and we are always pilgrims, walking as we seek to follow the Lord, and as we seek the path that is truly ours in life. That’s certainly not easy, but with the help of the Lord, the intercession of the saints, and by encouraging one another, you can be certain that, as long as you remain faithful, trusting always in God’s mercy, the experience of this pilgrimage will continue to bear fruit throughout your lives (cf.  Jn  15:16).

    Dear friends, with these few words, and entrusting you to the intercession of Mary, Mother of the Church, I gladly impart to each of you my heartfelt blessing.

    God bless you and thank you.
