I called it the Witching Hour. Toddlers melt down at around 5pm every single day. This fact is well known to stay at home moms and other peculiar people who spend a great deal of time with little children. Just about the time you are up to your elbows in getting supper on the table, the babies start cranking out tantrums, whines, arguments and fights. It’s as if someone put crazy drugs in their afternoon snackies. Nobody told me about... Read more

What does abortion mean to women after they’d had a few years to re-live the experience? What does abortion mean to them when they realize what they have done? Does abortion free women, or imprison them in a new form of misogyny? Women deserve better than abortion. Read more
I can’t do this anymore. That was the thought. It came after the realization. I woke up this morning feeling sick without an illness. I was sorta dizzy, totally dispirited and generally feeling like it was a day to avoid. Then, I remembered. Today is January 22, a date, to paraphrase Franklin Roosevelt, that lives in infamy. And I thought: I can’t do this anymore. I can’t, I can’t, I can’t deal with the fact of … how many is... Read more

Christianity, as I live it, is largely a matter of falling down and getting back up to try again. That’s why we have confession. It’s why we need to be kind to one another about our various weaknesses. Because we are all sinners who are bound to fail. None of us gets out of that. So, when I read the... Read more
I used to joke that the reason I never took holy water to my office at the Oklahoma House of Representatives is because I was afraid it would boil dry in the elevator on the way up. I have much the same whimsical opinion about the news that our president is going to be visiting Pope Francis in March. When our Catholic-Church-attacking President steps foot on Vatican soil, will the Holy Water in the founts boil dry? I don’t know... Read more
David Hewson has a blog. On this blog, he describes himself in one sentence: I write for a living. David Hewson is the author of the Nick Costa and the Killing series, as well as other books. His listings of best sellers on Amazon run page after page. When David Hewson describes himself by saying that he writes for a living, he is not only stating the obvious, he is being modest about it. David Hewson has, as I said, a... Read more
This famous letter from Martin Luther King, Jr, to Alabama Clergy. This letter was an answer to a letter sent to Dr King by these clergy. “Letter From Birmingham Jail” April 16, 1963 MY DEAR FELLOW CLERGYMEN: While confined here in the Birmingham City Jail, I came across your recent statement calling my present activities “unwise and untimely.” Seldom do I pause to answer criticism of my work and ideas. If I sought to answer all the criticisms that cross my desk, my... Read more
