  • An important theme for this blog is the scene in the New Testament where Jesus can be found FLOGGING the money-changers out of the temple. My header above depicts a priest FLOGGING the devils that distort the faith and assault believers. The faith that gives us consolation can and should also make us very uncomfortable. Both Divine Mercy and Divine Justice meet in Jesus. Priests are ministers of reconciliation, but never at the cost of truth. In or out of season, we must be courageous in preaching and living out the Gospel of Life. The title of my blog is a play on words, not Flogger Priest but Blogger Priest.

Satanist Club May Move Into PG County Elementary School

I was a member of Bible Club at Suitland Senior High School. There was plenty of discussion and debate between the various denominations. But we all loved the Lord. This business here is worrisome. Supposedly, this is not about real satanism but atheism. The label is intended to upset people… particularly Christians. If the effort were honest then it might be called The Atheist Club or The Rationalist Club or The Darwin Club, etc. Scientific discussion about cosmology and evolution would be their right… just as a Christian club would discuss relationships with Christ, dependence upon God, intelligent design, creation, etc. I doubt there are many kids requesting it… just adults who like to infuriate others. What is lost in the mix is real dialogue and respect.
