Canonically Speaking: Children's Book Underway

http://canonicallyspeaking.blogspot.com/2011/09/childrens-book-underway.html

Salus animarum suprema lex. Today I officially started writing a children's book that I've been thinking about for over a year now.

I am a Catholic husband and father of four. I hold a BA in religious studies from the University of Wisconsin, an MTS from Ave Maria University, and a JCL from Saint Paul University in Ottawa.

Another Brick in the Law. Building up the canon law wall since 2013. Friday, June 26, 2015. It Will Never Happen.
