GUEST CONTRIBUTORS

Chris Blosser

Christopher Blosser, a convert to the Catholic faith, was received into the Church in 1997. Born in Japan to missionary kids, he spent his early years in Pennsylvania and the better part of his childhood in Hickory, NC. He currently resides with his wife and son in New York City. His only claim to fame is having founded a little website in 2000, cheekily called the Cardinal Ratzinger Fan Club— little realizing that his favorite theologian would ultimately be elected to the See of Peter. He blogs regularly at Against The Grain and Catholics in the Public Square. A recovering radical, he is figuring out what it means to be Catholic and American. He can be contacted at blostopher “at” gmail.com.

Foxfier

Former sailor, former electronics and calibration tech, current mother, current homeschooler, current geek; has a former sailor current geek computer tech husband, a pack of kids and cats, all spoiled.
I’ve been “Foxfier” since before Mozilla existed, let alone renamed their browser “Firefox.” It’s a purposeful misspelling of the photo-luminescent effect– for something that might look scary but is harmless. I got involved in ad hoc evangelization when fellow geeks and shipmates told me what claims had driven them away from religion and I needed something more solid than “that’s not true”– then I had some outreach success geeking out about the neat little things in Catholicism.
I’m not every concise but I can usually get you the documentation. (If I’m going to look it up, I may as well share it, and if it’s interesting I am going to look it up.)

 

Dave Hartline

Dave Hartline has worked as a Catholic school teacher, coach, principal and diocesan administrator.  After starting the Catholic Report website, he wrote “The Tide is Turning Toward Catholicism,” which told the story of the rise of Catholic orthodoxy around the world. The book finished in Catholic Word’s Top 10 for 2007 (a consortium of Catholic publishers including the top selling Ascension Press.) Dave has appeared on EWTN and spoke in various settings around the country. A growing family convinced Dave to stop his daily website/blog and focus on the family. However, this hasn’t completely stopped him from working on his second book and contributing to great sites like American Catholic.  He holds a BA & MA from Ohio University.
