Livin life and lovin!

[TFP Student Action @tfpsa]

Young Catholics gathered at the gates of Georgetown University to protest Fr. James Martin's pro-LGBT "Outreach 2026" conference.

Not only are the event speakers at odds with the Bible, but also against natural law, papal documents, the Fathers of the Church, the Doctors of the Church, the Catechism of the Catholic Church and countless saints.

One of the conference panels is titled: "Celebrating the Transgender Catholic Experience."

In response, 31,000 faithful Catholics signed a petition in protest. TFP Student Action volunteers brought the concerns of those 31,000 Catholics directly to the gates of Georgetown.

Young Catholics say: June belongs to the Sacred Heart of Jesus, not the sin of pride.

In this time of great confusion, silence is not enough.
We have a duty to proclaim the truth with charity and courage.

Today, the voices of 31,000 Catholics arrived at Georgetown's doorstep.

But will Georgetown listen?

In the Declaration of Independence, there are 7 statements about God:
1. God exists
2. God is the creator of mankind
3. God is the God of nature
4. God has embedded laws in nature
5. God grants unalienable rights to humans
6. God is the supreme judge of the world
7. God exercises providence over the world

Tune in as I break down these principles and their significance for our time and in the development of our nation:

@Bdfr65 @CoffinMedia That’s indeed what the conference is about, no?

A brave woman stepped in and stopped International Women's Day demonstrators from vandalizing a cathedral in Mexico.

@JeffCassman @TridentineBrew Was he asked to go to Rome? It would be an act of obedience if so..

@TaylorRMarshall Need good priests and the Bishops support.

[Joshua Charles🇻🇦 @JoshuaTCharles]

In this excellent lecture on the “alien” phenomenon, Fr. Ripperger compares some of what “aliens” are said to have communicated with what exorcists have seen demons communicate as well. Essentially: there are multiple paths to God (even if they contradict one another).

He points out that this is essentially what protestant heresies must contend: that there are multiple, contradictory paths to God within Christianity itself. This is why one of the titles of Satan is “Doctor of Heresy.”

He shares a story of an exorcism in France in the 1600’s in which the Huguenots (French protestants) were unable to liberate a possessed woman. The demon, under obedience to priestly authority, revealed why.

Sobering. We must always cling to the Ark of the Church!

From Baptist pastor to Catholic: How Dr. Jerry A. Johnson Converted to the Catholic Church https://t.co/DPqjRWDhe0

What would make a lifelong Baptist pastor walk away from the denomination he loved—and enter the Catholic Church he once rejected?

This isn’t an isolated story. In recent years, a surprising number of prominent Protestants—pastors, scholars, political leaders, even the former chaplain to Queen Elizabeth II—have made the journey to Rome.

Something is shifting beneath the surface of our culture. Quietly. Profoundly.

And now, there’s another name to add to that list: Dr. Jerry Johnson. He was a Southern Baptist pastor, a seminary dean, president of a Christian college, and National Religious Broadcasters President. He knew the arguments against Catholicism—after all, he taught them.

But some questions refused to go away.
And after years of study, prayer, and inner struggle, he crossed the Tiber.

What changed? What Bible passages played a role in his conversion?

This is the story of how Dr. Jerry Johnson found his way home to Rome.

To a world that says “No Kings,” we say, “Christ is King!”

Might as well get ahead of this before it is released.

Catholics are absolutely, positively required to help the poor. We're literally damned if we don't.

Catholic are free to disagree with exactly how to best help the poor, as that is a prudential judgement.

[Matthew Hanstad @HewHanstud7]

@ParentRyanSJ He never mentioned heresy in this post - where did he say that?

[Dr Taylor Marshall™️ @TaylorRMarshall]

Soul of Christ, sanctify me.
Body of Christ, save me.
Blood of Christ, inebriate me.
Water from the side of Christ, wash me.
Passion of Christ, strengthen me.
O good Jesus, hear me.
Within Thy wounds hide me.
Suffer me not to be separated from Thee.
From the malicious enemy defend me.
In the hour of my death call me.
And bid me come unto Thee.
That I may praise Thee with Thy saints
and with Thy angels forever and ever. Amen.

@Bdfr65 Salvation came from the Jews.

[Eduard Habsburg @EduardHabsburg]

20.000 young Catholics walking three (tough) days from Paris to Chartres.
They love the Latin Mass.
Think long and hard before you write them off as rigid or weird.
Rather, thank God, and say a prayer that their friendship with Christ gets ever deeper, and never ends.
Because when we are gone, they will be Church.
