A little over a week ago, my family went to Easter Sunday Mass. Because we have a small baby in tow, we usually don’t get to the church until right when Mass is about to begin. On most Sundays, that works just fine since we can usually find plenty of parking and seats in the […]

Athletes need to do a lot more than just show up to a match. A soccer player cannot pat himself on the back after the game because he only managed to keep the ball in bounds. A football player cannot claim success just because he didn’t draw a penalty. No track runner will stand on

Since this past week was the 40th anniversary of the Supreme Court’s Roe vs. Wade decision and pro-life week, my RSS feed was filled with articles relating to abortion, contraception, and reproductive rights discussion. Since many of my feeds are from the Catholic News Agency, Create Minority Report, the Blaze, etc., many of the articles

We celebrate the feast of the Solemnity of Mary on New Year‘s day, January 1st. But what exactly is the solemnity of Mary? In plain speak, we celebrate Mary’s motherhood to God made man in Jesus Christ. It is one of the oldest feast days in the Catholic Church dating back to the 5th century.

I have to share a sad story about a friend of mine who the parish pastor removed from teaching a Sacrament of Confirmation class for “being too passionate about her faith” around “impressionable” students.

I tried to put together a good “election day and the rosary” type of article but nothing quite seemed to come together. There are plenty of good websites out there that have more time, writers, and other resources to discuss politics and the election through a religious lens. So RosaryMeds election coverage is simply this

I received this newsletter from the good people at One More Soul, a website dedicated to fostering God‘s plan for love, chastity, marriage, and family. This is probably the most comprehensive discussion about the dangers of the Health and Human Services Contraception Mandate you will find anywhere. It approaches the issue of forcing people to

It has been a while since I’ve written a “go the extra mile” type of post. But with all that is going on in the world right now I think a little spiritual “kick” is appropriate. I want to tell you why I chose the name “RosaryMeds” for this website. “Meds” can mean a lot

As you probably know, the Supreme Court upheld the constitutionality of ObamaCare. I’ll leave it to political websites to debate, praise, and criticize the ruling. My concern now turns toward the Health and Human Services Mandate which will require businesses and organizations to cover contraception expenses regardless of their religious beliefs. What are we, as people of

The assault on religion, Catholicism specifically, seems to have increased exponentially recently. People of faith are under fire from the government, the media, and a long-time foe — atheists. Richard Dawkins is one of the leaders of the new atheist movement. What sets him and his kind apart from earlier atheists is that he’s not
