What makes Millennial Nuns so tonic is both the level of intelligence displayed by these young women and the fearlessness and wisdom with which they engage the world. It’s a great irony of the modern world: progressive atheists who have embraced a life of career and competition frequently show signs of depression and deep unhappiness, but women who have given themselves to Jesus Christ are fun, dynamic, joyful, and satisfied.

Also, our modern secular media is notoriously awful at covering religion. It gets basic terms wrong and zealously guards against any religious imagery or expression from making it into the paper or in the air. Yet if human beings have souls and spiritual experiences, isn’t it a mistake to not report on that?

[We’ve seen plenty of evidence for that lately, especially in terms of doctrine and practice. This sounds like a tonic in more ways than one. — Ed]
