Imagine how @TuckerCarlson would handle such a case. It’s easy if you try.

@orbisbooks has always been about reading the signs of the times. As these new titles show, that means keeping hope and faith alive in the midst of all the assaults and threats we face—whether from bad politics, bad theology, white supremacy, or ecological disaster. #AARSBL2021

Enjoyed watching this inspiring and challenging documentary coming out in January about Christians who took seriously the gospel message of peace. And wonderful to see so many longtime friends interviewed. So many memories.

I was there and remember it well. Especially his opening line: “When someone you love does in the faith, do you feel *happy* for them?” (He had recently lost his great partner Maisie).

The great @DrDeLaTorre is in the house. He doesn’t have enough hands for all his @OrbisBooks titles. Winner of this year’s Martin Marty Award at #AAR2021

Justus Rosenberg, Holocaust rescuer, dies at 100. “There are no geniuses, really, only what people make with what they are given — that, and a confluence of circumstances.” washingtonpost.com/obituarie…

My reflection on Frank Sheed, who died Nov 20 1981. With his wife Maisie Ward he founded Sheed & Ward, which so elevated Catholic intellectual life. “Sanity, remember, does not mean living in the same world as everyone else; it means living in the real world.” @GiveUsThisDayLP

While waiting for my books to arrive for the AAR in San Antonio I took a bus to visit the Basilica of the National Shrine of the Little Flower (St Therese). Thanks to @StephCSaldana for the tip.
