While working on a homily one day…
I was thinking about some homily ideas last night and I remembered a book I had read years ago; Theodore Roosevelt’s Letters to his Children. TR is usually pictured as the larger than life example of all things large, loud and really American. You know; carrying big sticks and hijacking small countries. But however you may lean on his politics; he wrote some of the most wonderful letters to his children that I’ve ever read. They were first collected and published almost 100 years ago, but there have been two recent republications. Link to one of them.
ps. amazon lists about 20 used copies, I think you can get them for about $2.00…
