ALBEIT, A BIT OF THIS AND THAT, & ABOUT
My Work, Wailing, & Wondering
Writer of both fiction and non-fiction, religious and spiritual projects with a strong emphasis on Catholic theology and practice.
Editor and publisher of Catholic Nutshell News, a daily news aggregator of Catholic oriented news.
Written a weekly blog for seven years.
Two books, Snarl and A Snarl Theology, www.snarlthelion.com, are available on Amazon. Two more books near completion.
Fiction emphasizes heaven, Holy Spirit, faith communities, and prayer. Non-fiction works are primarily studies of faith-related topics and companion theology tomes for books.
My Faith Community
I welcome all Judeo-Christian centric faith community folks, the just plain curious, the lost, and the incredulous.
Born, raised, and returned to the Catholic faith. Soon to be harvested by angels.
MONIKER
This is the shortest part of our eternity.
My Family
Wife, Joanne Marie Nydam Polich Pearring, or JMNPP Excelsior, is responsible for everything good in my life, including six children, eleven grandchildren, our home, what I should fix for dinner, prayer, passions, and financial shenanigans.
All members of the Pearring, Cosgriff, Tighe, and ancient clans, plus those uncatalogued Jewish folks who contributed to my DNA sometime in the 19th Century.
MISSION
Whine, wrangle, and wrestle until everyone is won by God
All the Stuff — Whether Winged, Waxed Eloquent, or Warbled — Fit and Finished
