Friends, earlier this year, I was thrilled to sit down with one of my intellectual heroes—biblical scholar N.T. Wright—to discuss Scripture, culture, and Christian unity.

I recently spoke with my friend ‪@BenShapiro‬ about the upcoming feast days of Christmas and Chanukkah.

Chanukkah is the festival of the rededication of the Temple we read about in the Book of Maccabees, and as Ben remarked, this book leads us to the Christmas story. For Christians, Christ is the new temple.

And Christ the new temple is the Christmas message; the Church has always said of the incarnation that “the Word became Flesh.” Friends, the Gospels—in fact, all of the books of the Bible—know the darkness of the world, but they also reveal that the light of Christ will always conquer.

Friends, it was a pleasure to sit down and speak with Colm Flynn. We discussed the meaning of synodality, Christianity in the West and the need for us to raise our voices when the faith is under attack, and the upcoming Jubilee Year—an opportunity to renew and start again.

Friends, it was a delight to join Bishop Paprocki, canon lawyer and great teacher of the faith, on the Dive Deep Podcast. We were interviewed by Andrew Hansen on the sacrament of marriage, faith and science, the culture, and other deeply important topics facing the Church today.

Friends, while in Rome, I had the pleasure of sitting down with Rev. Jim Baron for a Q&A at the North American College. The NAC is very near and dear to me, and I was happy to speak with the young seminarians there.

Friends, freedom is important to us, but freedom has to be joined to truth and responsibility. This was the theme for my recent keynote at the ARC forum. I invite you to watch the talk here, and to take some time to reflect on the true nature of freedom:
