Evangelization Travails

With the many things being put forward with the new evangelization, the travails go on. Not Weigel nor Francis could make it happen to usher a new springtime for the church.

the frustrations of Pat Archibold expresses the sentiments of those who love the Church.

We have partied on the train tracks for so long, we delude ourselves into thinking them abandoned. But the train is coming, I can see the light in the distance and I know with certainty it will arrive. I cannot tell how far out is the light of the train and I can't say how fast it is moving. But it is coming, of this I have no doubt.

When will others see it and will it be too late?

As a blogger, I pray and ask for guidance. Lord, should I just pack it in and just focus on getting my family through this time. Or, should I be shouting the obvious from the rooftops, even though I know I will continue to be ignored and vilified. I don't know, I guess I will keep praying.

The difficulty of evangelization is how can one point towards the Catholic Church when within the Church are many imitations of the true Catholic Church. There are now too many claimants to what being Catholic is.
In the history of the Church, heresies are of prime concern for the successors of the Apostles. In this way, people who wants to be Christians would always know what to believe and what it takes to be a Catholic. Denouncing heresies allowed the Truth to be more clearly expressed; Thus, making the deposit of Faith richer and knowing God clearer.

As we tread on the path of "no offense" and "whatever makes you happy", truth will continually be obscured; And truth being the language of love will find us a society so deprived of love. That is real poverty.
