Forward Boldly: Guest Dr. Monica Miller

Dr. Monica Miller is the Director of Citizens for a Pro-life
Society, a pro-life group she founded in 1986. She is also an Associate Professor of Sacred Theology at Madonna University.

Dr. Miller became active in pro-life work in 1976. In 1978, she began theological studies at Loyola University of Chicago, earning a Master’s Degree, and later received a Ph.D. from Marquette University in Milwaukee.

Dr. Miller is the author of several books and articles including Sexuality and Authority in the Catholic Church, and “The Theology of the Passion of the Christ”, a commentary on Mel Gibson’s film "The Passion of the Christ."

Recently Dr. Miller led the charge to expose a bio-hazard waste when she discovered numerous discarded patient records and the remains of aborted babies in abortion clinic trash containers in the Detroit area. This striking discovery resulted in formal investigations by Michigan state regulatory agencies. Because of her work, criminal charges were brought against the Womancare abortion facilities by the Oakland County Prosecuting Attorney’s Office.

She is author of what some call the best book ever written on abortion: Abandoned — the Untold Story of the Abortion Wars.

The title of the radio show is taken from the battle cry of St. Joan of Arc. Riding before the army of soldiers, holding high her battle standard on which was emblazoned the names of Jesus and Mary, she would cry out, “In God’s name, forward boldly!”

Like St. Joan, who displayed fierce courage in the face of the enemy, we are also called to ride out boldly to fight on behalf of Truth. St. Joan of Arc, pray for us!
