  • 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.

Amoris Laetitia, Recent Synods & Teaching on the Family

Cardinal Donald Wuerl, Archbishop of Washington and Chancellor of The Catholic University of America, addresses students on Wednesday, April 27, as part of University President John Garvey’s class on “The Virtues.” In the talk, “Amoris Laetitia: The Recent Synods and the Church’s Ancient Teaching on the Family,” Cardinal Wuerl discusses Pope Francis’ recent exhortation on the family, specifically the many challenges contemporary families face and the Church’s pastoral response.

  1. I seems to me the Pope believes Christ’s yoke is heavy.

    FATHER JOE: Heavy? Hum, only when we try to carry the Cross without grace.
