To be clear, investing in farmland and “being a soybean farmer” are two different things…

I had the honor of presenting a Purple Heart & other honors to Sylvia from Johnston. They were earned by her uncle Richard Vertz who was killed defending our freedom in WWII.

His sacrifice & those of others who laid down their lives for our country must never be forgotten.

In this post, I explain why fentanyl smuggling isn't moral equivalent of war/terrorism and can't justify Trump's extrajudicial killings.... and how on this point I'm in rare agreement with John Yoo: reason.com/volokh/2025/...

Why Fentanyl Smuggling isn't War and Cannot Justify Extrajudicial Killing

Thus, Trump's attacks on boats in the Carribean have no moral or legal justification.

Why we're all in need of God's mercy. A meditation on today's Gospel: the Parable of the Pharisee and the Tax Collector. outreach.faith/2025/10/on-n...

On not being arrogant - Outreach

We often think after hearing this parable, “Well, at least I’m not like the Pharisee!” As a result, we end up exalting ourselves in a parable about not exalting ourselves.

Da Pope @deepdishpapa.bsky.social · 4h

In the #GospelOfToday, Jesus gives us a powerful message: it is not by flaunting our merits that we are saved, nor by hiding our mistakes, but by presenting ourselves honestly, just as we are, before God, ourselves and others, asking for forgiveness and entrusting ourselves to the Lord’s grace.

Together, we make the unity inherent in our choice to love one another stronger than the division seeking to starve us.

Infographic titled “No Family Should Go Hungry 3 of 3.”

It explains that the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) helps protect young children’s health. Text notes that children in families receiving SNAP are less likely to be hospitalized, underweight, or developmentally delayed. A large heading reads, “Over one-third of SNAP benefits go to families with children under 5.” The image shows an adult holding a baby. Text at the bottom credits Zero to Three and Children’s HealthWatch.

Jesus taught us what to do.

🍞 May we come together — across faiths, communities, and beliefs — to ensure that no one, especially children, goes without food.

Donate to your local food bank and please share this message to raise awareness.

A flat,vector-style, colorful illustration shows an African American woman with dark hair pulled into a bun, standing outside a blue door labeled “FOOD DONATIONS ACCEPTED.” She holds a brown paper grocery bag filled with a loaf of bread and green vegetables. Above the door, a yellow sign reads “OUR DAILY BREAD Food Pantry.” The woman’s orange shirt contrasts warmly with the blue door and yellow wall. Overlaid on the image are the words: “For I was hungry and you gave me something to eat. – Matthew 25:35.”
