This week, Judie examines some recent headlines and asks, Have some people become so removed from the God who created each of us that they would prefer to haggle over trivial issues than stand up for the dignity of the human person?

By Judie Brown When we hear the hymn “Christ Hath a Garden,” we feel thankful that we are planted in His grace. While this is a particularly remarkable blessing, it is also an enormous responsibility. As His children, His messengers, and His voice in the wilderness, we are obliged to proclaim Him amid burgeoning evil.… Read More »Hello, God! Mankind Needs You

By Judie Brown The Catechism of the Catholic Church addresses vengeance thusly: Anger is a desire for revenge. “To desire vengeance in order to do evil to someone who should be punished is illicit,” but it is praiseworthy to impose restitution “to correct vices and maintain justice.” If anger reaches the point of a deliberate desire to… Read More »The Tragedy of Vengeance

By Susan Ciancio In 1999, Dr. Bill Lile, OB/GYN, bought a Pensacola building that housed the Florida panhandle’s largest abortion facility. He immediately turned it into his new obstetrics practice and retired all of its deadly equipment, beginning a new era of serving both moms and babies.

This week, Judie reflects on the mind of God and about what abortion does to His children, explaining, “Each of these preborn children is erased from the face of the earth, forever lost to her mother though assuredly embraced by her Heavenly Father.”

By Judie Brown A recent personal encounter with Truth came my way by virtue of a profound statement from Bishop Emeritus Michael Pfeifer, Diocese of San Angelo: Life is indeed in God’s mind sacred from conception, and as it is a unique act of creation of a new person, God alone is the final author… Read More »The Mind of God

By Susan Ciancio  For more than 12 years, American Life League’s Culture of Life Studies Program has served parents, teachers, and students by providing authentically Catholic pro-life materials for kids in pre-K-12th grade. What began as just a small program has grown exponentially, and now our downloadable lesson booklets (most of which have an imprimatur and a nihil obstat) are in hundreds of schools and homeschools across the world.  It all started in… Read More »Strengthening Pro-Life Values at Home with the Culture of Life Studies Program

By Judie Brown Congressman Shri Thanedar, of the thirteenth district of Michigan, recently commented on his “favorite kind of abortion.” In an X (Twitter) post, he opined, “My favorite kind of abortion is the kind that’s safe, legal, accessible, and none of your damn business to regulate. And no amount of fearmongering by describing what… Read More »‘My Favorite Kind of Abortion . . .’

This week, Judie addresses the recent confusion regarding blessings for couples in same-sex “marriages” and explains that marriage should always be between a man and a woman.

By Judie Brown German bishops seem to have a misperception about marriage. Or at least it appears that way to us. Cardinal Reinhard Marx, archbishop of Munich and Freising, “has instructed the priests and full-time pastoral staff in the archdiocese to introduce the controversial handout ‘Blessing Gives Strength to Love’ as the basis of pastoral… Read More »Marriage in the Crosshairs

By Judie Brown Some years ago when American Life League was in its infancy, we came upon a concept devoted to explaining our work. We used the example of a wheel, describing the spokes in that wheel as the many different activities that comprised our movement.

By Judie Brown    The simple fact that every human being has a similar beginning as a single cell fertilized egg seems to be more than some people can comprehend. This came into stark focus when we read Professor Risa Cromer’s article entitled “Embryo Personhood’s IVF Problem: What the Data Reveals.” Cromer closes her article with… Read More »Embryo Personhood

By Judie Brown Recently Meghan Schrader, a defender of the rights of people with disabilities, came to my attention because of a two-part article she wrote on the fallout of using the word “retarded” to define certain members of the human family.

By Judie Brown The abortion pill serves a singular purpose: to kill a developing baby. But we must acknowledge that it also poses risks to the expectant mothers who take it.  The abortion pill is actually a two-pill regimen. The mother first takes mifepristone (which starves the baby to death) and then 24–48 hours later… Read More »PRO-LIFE BASICS: The Abortion Pill—Harmful to Mothers, Deadly for Babies
