Why St Michael’s Lent is a remedy for summer complacency (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Summer has a way of making us comfortable and complacent, but St Michael’s Lent – from the Feast of the Assumption until Michaelmas – reminds us that the Christian life requires deliberate self-denial and that our whole person belongs to Christ. This is a wonderful opportunity to refocus on what matters most: learning to pray with your whole self: mind, body and soul. Last year, I had the wonderful opportunity to join a group of men at our local church to undertake the 40-day version of St Micha
The terrifying majesty of the angels (opens the original)
Read excerpt
The Church has always held art in high esteem. More than simply something aesthetic, it is a useful tool for instruction. Through the hands of artists, generations of Christians have learned the scriptures. The angels, however, offer a perplexing challenge to the Catholic artist. Scripture does not shy away from describing these divine emissaries in all their terrifying and yet sublime majesty. There are the pillars of cloud and flame, the many-eyed, smouldering seraphim and the terrible, chimer
Mary’s Seven Sorrows and the mystery of suffering (opens the original)
Read excerpt
On September 15, the Church celebrates the Memorial of Our Lady of Sorrows. Not many Catholics are familiar with the devotion to the Seven Sorrows of Mary, but it captures a unique side of spiritual life. Our Lady is the very model of Christian prayer.

Wendell Berry and the freedom of limits (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Wendell Berry, the novelist, poet, essayist and farmer, died on August 31, 2026, at his home in Port Royal, Kentucky. He was 92. Berry spent much of his long career defending precisely the things modern life teaches us to leave behind: place, inherited obligations and the local community. Having left Kentucky for an academic career that took him to Stanford and New York, he returned to his home county in the 1960s and spent the rest of his life farming and writing there. I became acquainted with
Woe to us if we do not preach the Gospel (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Every Catholic has a sacred duty to evangelise: to share in the fruitfulness of Christ by handing on to others the grace we ourselves have received. Yet in a world so saturated by secularism, it can feel increasingly difficult to articulate our faith in the ordinary course of our lives. We need not minimise the real threat that sharing our faith can pose to our social standing or even our professional flourishing. But against that temporal danger stands an eternal one: the possibility of damnati
