Consequently, I am scrambling to create new revenue sources to feed my family and keep a roof over our heads.\u00a0 One way to do that is with my new Patreon page<\/a>.<\/p>\n

If you enjoy what I do and want to help make sure I can keep doing it (including the three books I\u2019m writing) please sign up to be a Sheatron at Patreon. THE CHURCH\u2019S BEST-KEPT SECRET: A PRIMER ON CATHOLIC SOCIAL TEACHING is just about done (finishing up Front Matter, Bibliography, and Indexing). and my book on the Creed is toodling along nicely while my wild occult thriller is about 12 chapters in and getting more fun and crazy. If you keep me writing and with a roof over my family\u2019s head, I will keep you thinking about things that had perhaps not occurred to you before in light of the Catholic tradition.<\/p>\n

Click on the link to go to my Patreon page and support my work.\u00a0 Thanks so much!<\/p>\n<\/body><\/html>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
