Conversations on Christian Unity
Feb 11, 2026 8:17 AM

Wheaton College recently hosted “A Conversation on Unity in Christ’s Mission” with pastor John Armstrong, founder and president of ACT 3, and Francis Cardinal George, Archbishop of Chicago. The dialogue between Pastor Armstrong and Cardinal George explored mon ground and current challenges that face Catholics and evangelical Protestants in Christian faith and mission. You can watch a video of the event on the ACT 3 website.

Armstrong also examined this theme in his recent book The Unity Factor, published by Christian’s Library Press. In his book, Armstrong outlines his vision for a deeper unity between Christians of various traditions and challenges our easy acceptance of divisions while helping us envision how our future can be better than our recent past.

Acton Line podcast: Rev. Robert Sirico on the church’s response to COVID-19
As the United States continues to wrestle with the fallout of COVID-19, many people are falling back on their faith and the church for peace. Many churches have decided to hold services online, and local governments have also stepped in and put parameters around church attendance to help mitigate the spread of the virus. Some actions taken by local governments have been appropriate, but some others leave us wondering if the government has overstepped. How can we tell the difference...
Rev. Sirico: How to heal soul, body and economy after a pandemic
The government-focused debate over how to emerge from the coronavirus shutdowns has been too dismissive of faith and private initiative, says Acton Institute President and Co-founder Rev. Robert A. Sirico in a new radio interview. In a wide-ranging discussion on Respect Life Radio, hosted by Deacon Geoff Bennett, Rev. Sirico began by outlining a wholistic response to the global pandemic. The public square has been dominated by petencies: science, economics, and faith, he says. “The extremes that people can take...
Rev. Robert Sirico: COVID-19 lockdown orders are the state-mandated ‘marginalization of religion’
Perhaps nowhere is the disconnect between private citizens’ views and those of the government clearer than when es to the role of religion in society. Acton Institute President and Co-founder Rev. Robert A. Sirico told a nationally syndicated radio program that state orders that effectively ban clergy from caring for sick patients represent “the marginalization of religion as a non-essential service,” and this “flies in the face of our entire history as an American republic.” “Who knows best what is...
DeVos’ Title IX regulations restore justice to campus
On May 6, Secretary of Education Betsy DeVos unveiled new Title IX regulations concerning sexual harassment and sexual assault on campus. Despite outraged cries of “turning back the clock” that echo across both sides of the Atlantic, the 2,033-page code reasserts the moral, ethical and legal norms that formed the basis of Western society. The prior definition of wrongdoing was so tantalizingly vague as to be infinitely elastic. “Sexual harassment is e conduct of a sexual nature,” said a 2011...
The making and unmaking of European democracy
If there is anything that we have learned over the past five years of political turmoil in Western countries, it is that large numbers of people across the political spectrum are increasingly dissatisfied with the workings of modern democracy. These trends reflect, as numerous surveys illustrate, deep distrust of established political parties and, more particularly, those individuals whose careers amount to a series of revolving doors between elected office, government service, the academy, and politically-connected businesses. What’s often missing from...
La situación del coronavirus en América Latina
Traducido por Joshua Gregor Este artículo se publicó originalmente en . Hasta ahora el coronavirus ha causado menos caos en América Latina que en Europa y los Estados Unidos. Pero incluso si el calor del verano ayuda a erradicar el virus en el hemisferio norte, será casi imposible que el movimiento de personas entre Norteamérica y Sudamérica vuelva a la normalidad si los países latinoamericanos no logran detener el virus. La incertidumbre más grande en Norteamérica es lo qué pasará...
What’s behind COVID-19 racial health disparities?
Soon after COVID-19 infection rates began to skyrocket in New York City and other densely populated urban areas, progressives and Democrats demanded data on the racial disparities of testing, treatments, and deaths. The data showed that blacks and Latinos were much more likely to die from the virus than whites and Asians. As expected, progressives moved to explain these disparities in terms of structural, systemic injustice in America’s health care system: Such injustice follows the country’s material and economic inequality....
In a pandemic, the poor need global markets more than ever
The coronavirus global pandemic has scrambled everything from economic policy to geopolitics. This disruption has created space for many to reconsider the world’s pre-coronavirus arrangements. Trade and globalization will undoubtedly be on the menu for renegotiation. As the world again considers the extent to which it wants to be interconnected, we must continue to forge a path that connects as many people to markets as possible. It is this arrangement, and this arrangement alone, that has led to the greatest...
COVID-19 dynamism? New study explores innovation amid crisis
Amid the economic pain and disruption of COVID-19, much public attention has focused on the growing assortment of government interventions—from ever-increasing rules and regulations, to direct economic relief, to a mix of price controls and “stimulus” programs. Yet as governments continue their attempts at stabilizing the situation, we observe many solutions arising elsewhere. Across the economy and society, inventors, entrepreneurs, and workers are continuing to innovate and explore—reimagining their industries and businesses to address new constraints and meet human needs...
We must cure the global pandemic of loneliness
Millions of people within our country are experiencing extreme social isolation and loneliness. In a time defined by a pandemic and lockdowns, one would naturally expect people to feel this way, being cut off from family, friends, and neighbors. In actuality, the coronavirus has just exacerbated an existing pandemic that had been plaguing the United States for many years: a broad cultural trend of increased social isolation and alienation. Long before the coronavirus started, large segments of our society were...
