Well, it's been a hell of a ride, laying rubber all over the road for the past decade. But it's time to call it a day and park the Rogue in the garage. Effective today, I am shutting down my blog to focus my attention on other endeavours. My thanks to the more than 2.7 million people who regularly joined me on these sojourns through news stories over the years that dealt with the places with issues of religion and faith intersecting with public affairs. May God bless you with a continuing desire to learn about and help disseminate the issues of faith throughout the public square. Happy trails in your continuing travels! Fr. Tim Moyle, p.p. Diocese of Pembroke
Reflections from the pastoral ministry of an Evangelical Catholic Priest.
Sadly its a homily I can't recall ever hearing in our parish. We've had a few visiting priests mention it, the more orthodox ones, but its rarely mentioned. Gay marriage was a political hot potato and nobody spoke out, thankfully our Bishop did and had his stance read in the church. I think we need to get back to real Christianity in our homilies. Tell the truth and let the chips fall where they may. Jesus pulled no punches, our priests should do no less. I think we fear offending others more than we fear offending the Lord, many laity and clergy alike. I think if a preacher declares the truth boldly, he may be surprised by the outcome. I know cloning is an abomination but can we clone Father John Corapi?
