Ripples in the Water: Joe's Reflections & Updates

Ripples in the Water: Reflections and Updates

I love to write (please remember, love for something speaks nothing of a guy's proficiency in that thing) and so I started this page just to share a series of reflections on youth ministry, faith, culture, the occasional iced cappuccino, and well, all things within the sacramental imagination.

"In the experience of great love, all things that happen are events related to it."

In the presence of the greatest of loves, all things are encompassed within, drawn together, and find their place within this divine romance know as Catholicism. What was always there, always present in the events of our lives, reveals itself to be a person, a presence. In the wake of such a love, all things, like constellations under the horizon of the night sky, suddenly dance brightly against the darkness...Christ enters in and life finally begins.

"In the experience of great love, every event that happens, happens in relation to it."

In the presence of the greatest of loves, all things are encompassed within, drawn together, and find their place within this divine romance that begins in Advent. What was always there, always present somehow within and behind the events of our lives, reveals itself to be a person, a presence. Life, no longer linear, suddenly revolves and rotates around this realization. In the wake of such a love, all things, like constellations under the horizon of the night sky, suddenly dance brightly against the darkness...Christ enters in and life finally begins...

After three abortions she waits to get to heaven and have Jesus say to her, “you have three beautiful children here to meet you."
