Sensus Fidelium?
The concept of “Sensus Fidelium” is often misunderstood. Matt Archbold weighs in…

Love Good Music?
Do you love good music? Well, next month it’s coming to San Diego!
Last year I wrote about a concert that was being held in Pacific Beach. This concert was put together by Love Good Music, a community who, through crowd-funding, helps artists get their music out to the public. In June two such artists, Chris Cole and Alanna-Marie Boudreau (of Wise Words on Wednesday fame!) will be coming to San Diego and will be performing two concerts.

The first concert will be at St. Brigid’s in Pacific Beach on June 12th and the second will be at Our Lady of Mount Carmel near Poway. Please click on the links above for details. Unfortunately, I won’t be able to be able to attend as I’ll be in Seattle for work :-(. You’ll have to go and enjoy it for me 🙂
In other “good music” news, did everyone else get Audrey Assad’s new EP last night?! 🙂
St. Brigid Blog
One of the larger parishes in San Diego is St. Brigid‘s in Pacific Beach. Until relatively recently, I had no idea that, in addition to having a parish website, it also has a blog with articles submitted by members of the young adult community:
Does the wailing wall prove Jesus wrong?
Today I’d like to address an objection to Christianity which you hear every now and again:
“Jesus prophesied that the Jerusalem Temple would be completely destroyed. However, the “Wailing Wall” is still standing, proving him wrong. Jesus is therefore a failed prophet and therefore can’t be God”

Porn – No big deal?
The Reformers and the Fathers
Several months ago I had a lively online exchange with a Protestant from the Reformed tradition. The conversation got really interesting and I had intended to write a series of posts based on our discussion. Alas, before I could do this, his blog was suddenly taken down, meaning that I was unable to use the record of our exchange to save me some work in constructing my posts (yes, I’m rather lazy).
To make sure the same thing doesn’t happen again, today I wanted to do a short post which is effectively a slightly expanded reproduction of my comments on an article over at Reformed Reader, in response to the blog author’s claims concerning Christian history and the Early Church Fathers.
Dough’s Conversion Story
I’ve posted quite a few links to Soul Device over the years. It’s probably one of my favourite apologetics sites. Here is the story of blog’s author, Douglas, and his conversion to Catholicism:
