Beyond School Spirit: When Love is the Only Reason to Play

Last updated on: June 3, 2014 at 10:12 pm   By Elizabeth Duffy

My son’s last soccer game was this weekend. It’s a league of 12-15 year olds who did not start playing soccer at the age of two, or perhaps they did and had little talent for it, or perhaps they’re quite good, but get little play on the school team because soccer has become one of the most competitive and populous sports of middle class suburbia. The team plays “academy style,” splitting into two groups at the start of each game... Read more

SoulCore: A Mary-led, Spirit-led Workout

Last updated on: March 7, 2014 at 8:22 am   By Elizabeth Duffy

About a month ago, a dear friend of mine had a birthday. To celebrate with her we went to the SoulCore studio on the Northside of Indianapolis and experienced the SoulCore workout, which pairs core strengthening exercises with meditation on the Rosary. I was so captivated by the project–which got me back into the habit of saying the daily Rosary–and also with the story of how it came to fruition, I wrote it up. The story is in the Washington... Read more

Living Faith, Daily Catholic Devotions

Last updated on: March 5, 2014 at 9:31 am   By Elizabeth Duffy

Just a quick note to let you know I’ve written a few short meditations for Living Faith/ Daily Catholic Devotions, which is both a print and online periodical featuring the daily Mass readings and related prayer. Here’s one from yesterday, March 4, 2014: God Working in Me, and there are more to come. You may enjoy checking out their devotions online each day, which feature the meditations of writers far more thoughtful than I. It could be a nice addition to any... Read more

Immediate Book Meme

Last updated on: February 19, 2014 at 2:24 pm   By Elizabeth Duffy

Hosted at Darwin Catholic   “There are plenty of memes that want to know all about your book history and your all-time greats and your grand ambitions, but let’s focus on something more revealing: the books you’re actually reading now, or just read, or are about to read. Let’s call it The Immediate Book Meme.” 1. What book are you reading now? Rose by Martin Cruz Smith   2. What book did you just finish? I’d revise this question to... Read more

Pope Francis’s Consistent and Boldly Proclaimed Pro-life Message.

Last updated on: December 27, 2014 at 12:34 pm   By Elizabeth Duffy

News has circulated this week about Pope Francis baptizing 32 infants in Rome. During his homily, he told the infants’ mothers to go ahead and feed the babies if they’re hungry. Breastfeed them in Church, in the Sistine Chapel even. It was also noted that he baptized the baby of a couple who were in an irregular marriage. Why is any of this news? Why does it matter? Because the Pope has declared anything goes and he really wants to... Read more

Oriental Duck Soup

Last updated on: December 6, 2013 at 11:43 am   By Elizabeth Duffy

One of my dumb ambitions for Thanksgiving was to cook Turducken. I bought turkey and duck, let them both thaw, then decided the night before that turkey was enough, and the duck was a bad idea. So after we ate all the Thanksgiving leftovers, I recalled that I had a duck to cook, stat. I roasted it for dinner Sunday night according to the package directions, which made about four servings and was neither here nor there taste wise. The... Read more
