CORAC’S ANGELS

Featuring members and leaders in CORAC who are doing notable things in their community

CHARLIE JOHNSTON, HOST

Charlie Johnston is the founder of CORAC, a former newspaper editor, radio talk show host and political consultant. From Feb. 11, 2011 to Aug. 21, 2012, he walked 3,200 miles across the country, sleeping in the woods, meeting people and praying as he went. He writes on cultural, global and political issues from an orthodox Catholic perspective. He emphasizes that we find God most surely through the ordinary, doing the little things we should with faith and fidelity. His constant refrain is that, to live real joy, we must acknowledge God, take the next right step, and be a sign of hope to those around us. He lives in the Archdiocese of Denver in the United States.

DR. JOE BRICKNER, CO-HOST

Dr. B is retired from 30 years of business, teaching at the graduate and undergraduate levels, and head coach of men’s college basketball, but he is still an avid hoopster, CORAC Region 10 coordinator, and published author. 

His latest book is “America: Lost in Place,” a reflection of his 70+ years on the planet. Dr. B analyzes 17 topics and compares how things were in the 1950’s and 60’s to today. He then summarizes his findings and proposes recommendations for allowing America, and Americans, to experience the life that our forefathers envisioned for us. Learn more >
