On Being Catholic...
Alright, so I stole the title from a Thomas Howard book that I read several years ago but it was too appropriate to pass up.
However, unlike the book, which goes into
details about what led one of the most renowned and respected Evangelical scholars/authors of our time into the Catholic Church, I will keep this focused on what, at least to me, is the principal concept in beginning to understand what being Catholic is all about.
You can blame a friend, who last week asked me to share some thoughts with our men’s group about what it meant to be Roman Catholic.
I’ll be honest, it’s still amazing to me that I would even be asked to discuss the subject, even if just with friends, considering that for most of my life (almost 30 years), I was nothing more than a cultural Catholic.
