Latest issue

With less than six weeks to go before the US elections, both Donald Trump and Joe Biden have been wooing the Catholic vote – and on both sides you can hear people insisting that their preferred candidate is the only possible pick for any right-thinking Catholic. So what are the obligations on Catholic voters? In this month’s issue, Thomas Caddick looks at the Church’s teaching on voting, while Christopher Altieri and David Mills ask how the national conversation got so fractious, and Matthew Schmitz makes the case for a different kind of Supreme Court.



Elsewhere in our October issue, the outgoing editor of BBC Radio 4’s Today programme, Sarah Sands, explains why bringing together religion and broadcasting could be such a challenge – and how, despite that, one guest editor snuck in an anti-abortion message. AN Wilson brings cheering news about modern architecture. Fr Alexander Sherbrooke remembers his life-changing friendship with Mother Teresa. Ben Sixsmith explains why, though he’s an agnostic, the Catholics he has known have given him a few doubts. We mark the 10th anniversary of The Social Network and the 70th of Narnia. Cardinal Anders Arborelius and Jessica Dalton paint a portrait of Swedish Catholicism past and present. All that and much more in our latest 80-page issue.
