What is Vocation?
As we enter Holy Week, here is “Weep with me” by the Rend Collective:
Weep with me
Lord will You weep with me?
I don’t need answers, all I need
Is to know that You care for me
Hear my plea
Are You even listening?
Lord I will wrestle with Your heart
But I won’t let You go
You know I believe
Help my unbelief
Yet I will praise You
Yet I will sing of Your name
Here in the shadows
Here I will offer my praise
What’s true in the light
Is still true in the dark
You’re good and You’re kind
And You care for this heart
Lord I believe
You weep with me
Part the seas
Lord make a way for me
Here in the midst of my lament
I have faith, yes I still believe
That You love me
Your plans are to prosper me
You’re working everything for good
Even when I can’t see
Turn my lament into a love song
From this lament, raise up an anthem
Oh I’ll sing it in the darkness, oh
Turn my lament into a love song, ’cause I love You Lord
And from this lament, raise up an anthem, oh
I was delighted to hear yesterday that Chris Stefanick will be coming to St. Rose of Lima this May:
You can book your tickets here.
Since I’m sure many of you will be watching Mel Gibson’s The Passion of the Christ sometime this Lent, here are some bizarre things which happened on set you might not know about…
So today I got to have a lovely chat with one of the manliest men out there, the star of The Long Ride Home, Mr. Bear Woznick. Bear invited me onto his radio show for a chat about all things Catholic, during which we discussed Judo, St. Edmund Campion, Byzantine Christianity and Atheism.
Please brace yourself for the manliest of conversations…
Since we’re in a season of penance…what does “Anchorite” mean?

The place God calls you to is the place where your deep gladness and the world’s deep hunger meet.
