I couldn’t this morning decide what to watch on TV during the time I set aside for that before ‘beginning my day.’ Old reruns of “Sliders?” How about “Farscape?” “Babylon 5?” Maybe pick up where I left off during an interrupted binging of the original “Quantum Leap?” No, no, no, and no. I was restless …

Please turn your ad blockers off when reading Sober Catholic! I receive a small income from ads placed on the blog, and while it isn’t much, it helps with incidentals and so forth. EVERY SINGLE ad placed on Sober Catholic is from a Catholic source; be it a business, publisher, service or charity, etc. When …

About two months ago I began oublishing articles on Catholic365. It’s a way to earn a little exta money. The emphasis is on the little, but I appreciate the exposure. I am actually hoping to be noticed by folks who don’t navigate to this blog; they can get a taste of my writing and perhaps …
This is a follow up to Daily Marching Orders from Mary: (Be a militant, crazy Catholic and apply your Marian Consecration!) It basically says the same thing, but provides a different background and different examples and also doesn’t reference Marian Consecration. If you’re a Catholic who read the previous post but the Marian Consecration for …

I just used ‘Sacred Heart’ three times in one sentence! That may not happen all that often, anywhere. The following are links and an incomplete bibliography …
As a companion to the Sober Catholic Page on Facebook, I am starting a similar thing on MeWe. MeWe is probably the largest and best known of the ‘alternative to Facebook’ social networks out there. I’ve been a member since early 2015 and am fairly active. The Sober Catholic Blog Discussion Group is where readers …

UPDATE: (new from yesterday’s post) Due to some massive new updates to WordPress that are appearing next week (see embedded video if you care), some changes will be delayed, such as the new theme and the subscription thingy. I’ve asked a question in a MeWe WordPress Group about the latter, (admin is the same guy …

Medium is a publishing platform where anyone with writing aspirations can sign up, write stuff and publish it where no one or maybe lots of someones will read it. You can also earn money. The trick to the latter is that you have to join their partnership program and for that, you need at least 100 followers. There’s a lot to …

I am having issues with the new subscription thingy I installed the other day. I apparently have to manually add emails to the subscription list (I looked around and there was nothing in the settings to allow new subscribers to be automatically added.) I am trying a new option but I’m not how its is …
