Sebastian is a 2019 graduate of Northeastern University with a BSBA in Accounting. He grew up in West Texas with close friends, all of whom remain close to him, and one day will be on the altar the day of his wedding. He encountered the Culture Project through a YouTube video recommendation. Throughout his college career, he noticed how some friendships fell apart because they weren't standing on a solid foundation. It is because of his virtuous friendships, as Aristotle would define them, that he desired to answer God's call to help our society and our culture that has been wounded by a lack of responsibility and meaning.

Have you ever found yourself praying for a future free of suffering, with an abundance of happiness, unending success, and someone special by your side—a significant other—to complete you?

By Sebastian Ronquillo  •  November 26th, 2019

The landmark case of Roe v. Wade—which granted women the legal right to terminate a pregnancy—was decided with the intention to “free” women. Today, however, this is far from the truth.
