I did a fair amount of extra reading for sermon prep over the last couple of days. I revisited Anselm's Cur Deus Homo and read Athenagoras of...
My point was that it might not be the case any longer that they will suck it up and make the drive. Perhaps 30% of Catholics actually believe the...
The Catholics are rapidly attempting to undermine their own organization logistically. I'm not going to say anything about the culture changes and...
You've reminded me of a line of thought I pursued and preached on a few years back. I was raised in a staunch Cessationist tradition and yet they...
