Veterans Day Collection
A passion for protecting this country runs in my blood. Here is an archive of my articles on this subject (the lives of veterans and their families): Veterans Day and Family Forces - 11 years ago (November 11th, 2011), Communities at The Washington Times A Christmas...
Jennifer Lawrence and Sanctity vs. Commodity of Body
Jennifer Lawrence's reason for privately taking the nude photos that were disseminated across the internet against her will and knowledge was the following, as she told Vanity Fair: I was in a loving, healthy, great relationship for four years. It was long distance,...
See my review of Scottie Nell Hughes’ “ROAR”!
My latest book review can be found at Turning Point USA: . . . Scottie asserts that conservative women have the self-respect and realistic outlook to understand that women are not inferior when they assume roles different from men. Rebuking the statist belief in...
Humane Economy on Horseback
Having a little fun the other day, doing a photo shoot with camera-savvy Abigail and patient black steed Jubilee. What better book to read in the countryside while bareback riding than Wilhelm Röpke's A Humane Economy: The Social Framework of the Free Market? Find an...
The Crusading Chemist website has been updated
Oh yes, another one of my back burner projects that has received a bit more attention as of late. See the amateurish poster I made for my screenplay The Crusading Chemist several years ago? Perhaps only one face in that collage is familiar to most, but you can learn...

Regulation of Photoshopping – Missing the Picture?
Bureaucratizing beauty is not likely a way to safeguard it, however good it may be for companies to be honest with consumers about what they are serving them. I'm quite a ModCloth styliste, even choosing them as the source of wardrobe for actresses in my Romans XIII...
Ministries to Support During This Turmoil
"Because lawlessness is increased, most people's love will grow cold," our LORD Jesus told us. "But the one who endures to the end, he will be saved." (Matthew 24:12-13) We see the folly of lacking principle, the roots of the world's strife, and our souls may well be...
Soul Doctors
It is no person's job to compete with the leadings of the Holy Spirit, especially not Ann Coulter's. But whatever the method to her madness, there is one line in her latest controversial and harshly titled column that stood out to me as rational and compassionate:...

Independence Day Weekend
At 238 years of age, I suppose it's about time that America can no longer blame decline and error on youthful indiscretion. Here are some observations about a particular 4th of July-themed film that annoyed some readers more than I anticipated (I offended fans of the...
