April 10, 2026 • 4 mins
When we make idols of a criminal class, we make victims of the upright. California plans to use taxpayer funds to pay for immigration defense attorneys for those facing deportation. It represents a perverse redistribution of resources away from the innocent. https://writings.crusadergal.com/p/the-injustice-of-taxpayer-funded

Have a Blessed Triduum

April 2, 2026 • 3 mins
The Triduum is upon us. These are the three days in which we walk with Christ through his darkest moments—those times that were so monstrous because of us. It’s also a time in which we see so clearly that He knows what it is to suffer in every way, not only in the more direct manner as upon the Cross, but in the preparation for that end: https://writings.crusadergal.com/p/have-a-blessed-triduum

Why a Premature Baby Feels Like an Accusation

When a Diocese Undermines Its Own Vocations

January 7, 2026 • 6 mins
A diocese’s seminarians reflect its spiritual ecology. So why dismantle what was working? The Diocese of Charlotte is delaying ordinations and stripping seminarians of their cassocks, while forcing them into a year of lay work mid-formation.

Unworthy of justice: When ideology determines victims

January 4, 2026 • 7 mins
There is a growing ideological trend that seeks to deprive those broadly considered to being “on the right” of any and all rights, through dehumanization and the systematic exclusion from key institutions. I lived this reality in a small way when I was made a victim of a minor crime in an American city. https://www.catholicworldreport.com/2026/01/04/unworthy-of-justice-how-ideology-determines-victims/

Five Books That Can Change Your Soul

December 16, 2025 • 6 mins
Five books stood out this year. In an age of excess, noise, and content masquerading as wisdom, these were rare companions: books that changed the way I think, pray, judge, and remember. From Boethius on suffering and providence, to C.S. Lewis’ medieval imagination, to ecclesial indifference, and the loss of ritual, these are books worth keeping and rereading.

    Betrayal Season 5

    Saskia Inwood woke up one morning, knowing her life would never be the same. The night before, she learned the unimaginable – that the husband she knew in the light of day was a different person after dark. This season unpacks Saskia’s discovery of her husband’s secret life and her fight to bring him to justice. Along the way, we expose a crime that is just coming to light. This is also a story about the myth of the “perfect victim:” who gets believed, who gets doubted, and why. We follow Saskia as she works to reclaim her body, her voice, and her life.
