Remember the legacy of two great professors of theology in the Commonwealth of Virginia. 

"Pep talks and rallies don’t make a man feel like a man. At most, I think, they make men feel like they’re feeling like men."

The remorse we strive for in Lent builds the anticipation of the Gloria of Easter. 

Lent should not be a “over and done with” season, but should be a time of forming a virtuous life in Christ.

Nothing in the faith is self-evidently understandable. We require the community of the Church to grow in the gift of faith. 

Betrotheds need accompaniment so as to make that vocational leap of faith that turns their relationship into a sacrament. 

Are the sins of His shepherds enough to oust Christ from the institution He entrusted to Peter on the shore of the Sea of Galilee all those years ago?

The most important decision for any Catholic parent: can the school be trusted to hand on the faith?

"Even I have trouble explaining to my family that we are not about killing babies."

It is beholden on Catholic schools to recognize their role as, very likely, the only true community that their students will belong to. 

Classical education is certainly against the mainstream, but as Chesterton once wrote, only a living thing can swim against the tide.
