Friends, one of the principal marks of Christ’s Church, according to the Nicene Creed, is catholicity. The term “catholic” is derived from the Greek "kata holos" (according to the whole) and thus designates something like universal or all-embracing. As such, this ecclesial mark is closely tied to that of unity. Since God wants to draw all people to himself, his outreach is properly all-englobing and so must be the vehicle by which he affects this gathering-in. Accordingly, the Church of Jesus Ch

Friends, there seems to be a growing sentiment, both within the Church and the wider culture, that if you share a public conversation with someone, or say something nice about one particular aspect of their work, you’re necessarily endorsing everything they’ve ever said or done and can therefore be easily dismissed, a fallacy known as "guilt by association."

Friends, even in the desert landscape of postmodernism, you can find many references to the sacred, to the good, to the holy. Now, these things won’t be right out of St. Thomas’ playbook; they will be in a somewhat twisted form. And this doesn’t mean we can’t be critical of the culture. But we cannot hate the culture, for you cannot effectively evangelize that which you despise.
