I'll be a speaker at an upcoming conference in Portland, OR, November 13-14, giving a pair of talks:
- "The Catholic State and the Resurrection of Christendom"
- “The Kingship of Christ: Font and Apex of the Christian Social Order”
Christopher Ferrara will be speaking as well, on the American founding and the history of the heresy of Americanism.
"As traditional Catholics living in the modern world, we must examine the intersection of our faith and the dominant secular culture. This conference addresses the deeply practical question: how can we live as traditional Catholics in our current environment without falling into extremes—neither yielding to Puritanical isolation nor making compromises with secularism?"

Once considered a beacon of God used to guide and enlighten our society, we now risk losing this necessary vocation. In defense of the hermit, we need this vocation now more than ever to up-lift all of humanity.
Happy feast of St. Paul of Thebes, the first anchorite!
A very good short piece was published today at Rorate on what hermits are and why the eremitical vocation exists (and is important).

@JesseKellyDC How about a small nonprofit that supports contemplative hermits? These brothers and sisters dedicate themselves to silence, solitude, and prayer. They don't have the typical security and stability that most established orders offer. https://t.co/vs8Gh0hpIm
