  • Lent 2021, Day 35: You may just have a problem with this post.

    Put down your pitchforks and calm your Twitter fingers. Lil Nas X’s new music video is not a sign of the Apocalypse.
    (But it may be a sign of the latest Moral Panic.)

    So you want to “go back to normal,” huh? Nah, you’re wrong about that.

    Another homegrown terrorist.

  • Lent 2021, Day 23: About *that* Kirk Franklin recording…

    Let he who has not used a four letter word… still not cast a stone.

    Like, not even a pebble.

  • Lent 2021, Day 20: In the midst of things.

    It’s been a really, really, really, long year.

    Really.

  • Lent 2021, Day 17: All that glitters.

    A gilded cage, wrapped in pearls, diamonds, and gold, watched by billions, and lit by paparazzi lightbulbs is still a cage.

  • Lent 2021, Day 12: Marking Time.

    “We’re made in the image of God, and within us, I believe, is the divine spark to create.”

    Onward and… upward?

"... the awesomely gifted Alisha DeFreitas... tells her story of  her brush with the Culture of Death and her refusal to play the world’s game. I love that she gives two well-aimed upraised middle fingers: one to the abortion culture of the Left, and one to the Randian Makers vs. Takers class warriors of the Right. She’s one of my heros."

Mark Shea, author and blogger


"While reading your blog I often sense a certain amount of conviction on your behalf, which makes me wonder why isn’t everyone reading the blogs of a woman who actually “gets it.”

Don, at Minus The Bars


"A curious mix of the sacred and profane...too nice for a run of the mill blog? "

Joe, my brother, author of The Blog of Blogs


"Are you really bored or something?"

Joscelyne, my sister


"Pretty f****ing intense."

Reader Brooke Farmer, on this entry.


"A great outlet for such a prolific mind and an entertaining mix of spirituality and current events."
