As I continue to settle in at Good Counsel Homes, I am finally able to articulate to myself at this stage in life the things that intuitively resonated with me when I did this work in my twenties. Seen now from the perspective of fund development work, which affords me the perspective that comes with [...]

We are now in the 150th Anniversary of the events of the United States Civil War, of which I have been a devoted student for many years. Many have drawn striking parallels between the abolitionist movement and the pro-life movement, myself among them. From time to time over the coming months, I’ll be revisiting some [...]

When I responded with, “We don’t know,” I was met with the ubiquitous, iniquitous, mindless, and moronic refrain: “As long as it’s healthy.” I would challenge this well-intentioned, ill-thought well-wish with: “If it isn’t, we’ll love [...]

As I was preparing dinner, my ten year old, Elizabeth Marie, approached and shared with me what she would write if she had a popular blog like mine. So, I sat her down to the blog and told her to write it up, that she would be Coming Home’s first guest blogger. The Spirit is [...]
