"All Roads Lead to Rome" ... All truth and beauty ultimately leads back to the One, Holy, Catholic, and Apostolic Truth of the Catholic Church.

Please read, comment on, and share the following collections of articles making a defense or exploration of the teachings of the Catholic Church:

  • The Virgin Mary
  • The Eucharist
  • Defending Church Teachings: Purgatory, Confession, etc.
  • The Saints
  • Pro-Life Articles
  • Movies & Theology
  • Catholic Sci-fi & Fantasy
  • Catholic Comics

These articles are all designed to help you make a defense of the Faith. As the first Pope writes at 1 Peter 3:15, "Always be prepared to make a defense (apologia) to anyone who calls you to account for the hope that is in you, yet do it with gentleness and reverence."

I hope these articles can help you do exactly this.

  2. Hi Scott! I found your rich and thoughtful blog after searching for pro-life coffee on Google. We have been roasting coffee commercially as a side business since 2007 and have built a small, but loyal following. In 2016, we decided to rename our business, CoffeeBabees, and donate all our profits to pro life initiatives. In December, 2023, we decided to step out in faith and (some trembling too) into full time coffee roasting to generate more profits for pro-life. We are giving more than 10% toward that goal, but we need some more "buzz" from those who share our desire to see crisis pregnancy centers become the only reasonable choice. Would you take a look at our website (www.coffeebabees.com) and consider adding us to your blog? I pray for your continued success and fruitful impact in this forum on your readers. My email is thomas@coffeebabees.com.
