The abuse of children and other scandals are awful

All they want is my money

Anullments

Confession

Frequent falling doesn't mean you're down for the count

Guilt

Heaven

Humility

I'll never forget the time that I was treated so badly when...

The liturgy does nothing for me

There is no sense of community here

Hosea: Come Back to Me

Come back to me with all your heart
Don’t let fear keep us apart
Trees do bend though straight and tall
So must we to others call

Long have I waited for
Your coming home to me
And living deeply our new life

The wilderness will lead you
To the place where I will speak
Integrity and justice
With tenderness
You shall know.
