It was Twelfth Night this weekend, the end of the Christmas season for Christians who are too enthralled to restrict the celebration of the Incarnation to a single day preceded and followed by shopping, the modern form of worship. Our happiness commenced at midnight December 25th and was only tempered as the Wise Men of the East brought their gifts to the King of Kings. So too does Season 1 of our podcast series finally end as well. I am happy to admit on behalf of all the Foundation staff that we bit off more than we could chew last...
As they say, man proposes, God disposes. Some time back I announced what our podcast schedule would be for the remainder of 2016, only for it to be disrupted by some family health issues that Dr. Fleming had to attend to (which are still ongoing), and then the arrival of many of you in Rockford for our Boethius Seminar. As a result, we are spending the rest of August uploading the remainder of our stock of Boethius Book Club audios to continue to provide content to those paying members who so faithfully support our work. We will return to our...
I just wanted to take a moment to thank our Gold and Charter members for their patience as Dr. Fleming and I caught up on our podcasts. The promise of last year was one per week, four per month, but in February and March Dr. Fleming and I both had travel schedules that contrived to tinker with that plan.

We will have two season breaks in 2016, which will include the...
Dear Readers Technology is supposed to be a tool we use. If it’s reliable, sometimes we can be shocked at its letting us down. Last week Dr. Fleming and I spent 45 minutes trying to get him properly and digitally into our virtual studio so we could record a podcast. We had performed the exact same actions just a few days earlier with absolutely zero trouble. Ah, the idiosyncrasies of our digital masters. Dr. Fleming showed remarkable patience throughout and while we could have persevered on that afternoon to try for a makeshift solution, he wisely relented, and planned a...
Dear Readers Many of you by now have experienced our new “walled garden” subscriber format, and I hope you have come to understand and appreciate why we are doing it and how we are setting up the Foundation on a firm footing for a future that will outlast its namesake (though we hope that he will last for some time yet!). Our Charter Subscribers receive a mug and notebook, in addition to some yet-to-be disclosed benefits, but should you wish to purchase these for yourself or for friends or family this month, in solidarity with our cause or simply to...
