Catholic Bloggers of Note

To go with my post yesterday on books that give a taste of Catholicism, I give you list of Catholic bloggers who give to the blogosphere that same excellent taste and variety.

Melissa of The Bonny Glen and The Lilting House. A Catholic mother and writer, Melissa lives her faith as she writes about books, homeschooling, children, and mothering. And she comes from a Southern Baptist background, which is fascinating to me. Would you be interested in writing about how that switch came about, Melissa? If so, I’d be interested in reading the story.

Dawn Eden is a recent convert to Catholicism. She has a wonderful testimony, a heart for the unborn, and a way with words. If you visit her blog, you can read about how she became Catholic in several entries entitled “How I Became the Catholic I Wuz.” (Use the Search bar to find the other parts.)

Steve Riddle blogs at Flos Carmeli. Steve is a lay Carmelite and also a convert to Catholicism. In addition, he’s a dad and a lover of books and iterature. He’s got lots of things to teach this unabashed Baptist.

Dawn blogs By Sun and Candlelight and says she’s “from Catholics as far back as we go, from Sunday Mass and family dinner.” She writes about homeschooling, Catholic tradition and meditation, nature studies, books, and poetry.

Love2Learn is a homeschooling group blog with contributions from several Catholic homeschooling moms. Lots of reviews of historical fiction and other goodies here.

The Anchoress gives commentary on all things political from a Catholic, conservative perspective. She’s humble and feisty at the same time, a trick that I’d like to learn someday.

Southern Appeal is a group of lawyers and law clerks and lawyer-friendly types, mostly Catholic, I think, and all Southerners.

First Things: On the Square is the blog of Fr. Richard John Neuhaus and his cohorts at First Things.

Those are a few of my favorites. If you write from a Catholic worldview and I missed you, accept my apologies and leave a note in the comments.

  1. I’m a Protestant, but I saw John Neuhaus on Meet the Press (I think) on Easter Sunday. I was SO impressed with him (at least I think it was him). Thanks for the info.

  2. Sherry, I read your blog every day so I don’t know how I missed this one! Thanks for the mention. And the suggestion! That would make a fun post; I’ll have to tackle it one of these days. I appreciate your interest!
