What’s the DIFFERENCE between Catholics and Christians, Fr. Mike Schmitz... https://t.co/WFao6FbKmd via @YouTube

[Bishop Robert Barron @BishopBarron]

I understand that one of the topics under consideration at the Consistory of Cardinals is synodality. I’m speaking as a bishop who was an elected delegate to both rounds of the Synod and Synodality in Rome and who has just presided over a local synod in my own diocese. Synods are good and useful tools for the determination of practical pastoral strategies, but they oughtn’t to be forums for debate regarding doctrine. When settled teaching becomes a subject for synodal determination, the Church devolves into relativism and self-doubt—as is clearly evident in the misconceived “Synodal Way” in Germany. I’m sympathetic with the founders of the journal “Communio”—Joseph Ratzinger, Hans Urs von Balthasar, and Henri de Lubac—who broke with the journal Concilium the stated purpose of which was the perpetuation of the “spirit of Vatican II.” The great Communio theologians said that councils are indeed sometimes necessary in the life of the Church but that one sighs with relief at the end of a council, for the Church can then return to its essential work. As long as it sits in council, the Church is in suspense, unsure of itself, wringing its hands. It was precisely the perpetuation of the spirit of Vatican II that led to so much vacillation and drift in the years when I was coming of age.

So, if we must continue with synodality, let it be dedicated to the consideration of practical means by which the Church can more effectively do its work of worshipping God, evangelizing, and serving the poor. And let it not be a defining and permanent feature of the Church’s life, lest we lose our verve and focus.

I have personally spoken with, and know of, several very prominent evangelical leaders who have either decided to become Catholic, or are on the brink of it, but have not yet gone public.

It’s truly amazing to see what God is doing.

His grace is real, and brings people Home.

It’s been a wild ride…

Fifteen years as a Reformed pastor; resigned in 2024 due to burnout.

My wife and I and two of our six kids ended up coming into the Catholic Church this year at the Easter Vigil.

Concerns and objections from several friends led to conversations, which led to their own investigations.

Now, seventeen of our closest friends and their children are coming into the Catholic Church tonight, and we’re sponsoring many of them.

Yes, it’s been a wild ride!

If you have a second, leave a “Welcome home!” for our friends!

@cudchewerchad @AshFarms Agree with this! I recommend the ESV or NABRE translation. There is no perfect translation but some translations don’t translate very well or leave out or confuse the reader. This is the one I own
