Lent + Coronavirus God be like: I want to invite you all to truly enter the desert, give up attachments (even religious ones), be stripped of all but me alone, focus on your interior life, and trust that I am in control... also for the sake of those more vulnerable than you.

I never really understood the prodigal son story, esp. in ref to the older brother til I read @BishopBarron “The Priority or Christ”. Younger demands a gift, Older tries to earn a gift. One is a bully, the other is a kiss-up. Both manipulate to get what they want. Neither loves.

There was a moment in my life when I realized that every challenge in the Gospel was directed at me, not at “those people out there”. I’m the Pharisee, I’m Pilate, I’m the rich young man, I’m Martha, I’m the apostle with a lack of faith (etc) If I think it’s not me, I’m wrong.

One of my students made this in her art class last year and gave it to me. She was inspired by our study of the violent 20th century in my Church History class. I thought it was so profound. She said she made it in response to the cry, “Where was God?”

Young adult ministry fails bc there’s no such cohesive category as “young adult”. There’s hs & college ministry (for a specific set of ppl doing the same thing), and then there’s adult faith formation (catechesis for all adults), and then there’s just friendship skills.

It is possible to love GKC (and even personally believe he’s a saint), and not agree with, admire, or defend everything he ever wrote, actually. He was a journalist who wrote constantly. He had a lot of hot-takes, some of which were clever but wrong. And that’s my hot-take.
