About this episode

We are told that the Synodal Way is going to be a time for listening in the Church. If that's sincere, then this is my attempt to penetrate into that conversation with what I think needs to be a the top of our hierarchy of priorities, as a Church. If we intend to renew the Church, if we intend to see it flourish, and if we intend to enable the mission of the Church, evangelization, then we have to offer what only the Church can - a mystical, transcendent encounter with God. Instead, we keep getting distracted by a desire to offer a natural, down to earth, worldly-minded message and culture. It's self-defeating and, when I was a convert, it was a bit turn-off. And as much as we may not want to hear it, the Tridentine Latin Mass is the kind of thing that does offer that encounter. So what can we do now, to reform ourselves to be more capable of embracing the mysteries of our faith then trying to brush them under the rug for fear that they will repel naturalist sensibilities?
