# Crisismagazine

Crisismagazine is an American publication providing commentary and analysis on issues related to the Catholic Church, culture, politics, and contemporary society. Founded in 1982 by leading Catholic intellectuals, the magazine’s mission is to serve as a trusted source of authentic Catholic perspectives on the enduring relationship between faith and public life. Its articles, podcasts, and opinion pieces explore moral, social, and political questions through the lens of Catholic teaching, emphasizing the faithful proclamation of Christ’s kingship in the modern world.  

The magazine operates under the patronage of St. Maximilian Kolbe, known for his use of media to evangelize in times of crisis. Through its editorial mission and community of contributors—ranging from theologians to public intellectuals—Crisismagazine seeks to guide readers toward making sound moral “decisions” amid cultural and ideological upheaval. Functioning as a division of Sophia Institute, a nonprofit 501(c)(3) public charity, the publication is supported by tax-deductible donations, sustaining its religious, charitable, and educational objectives.
