The Ecumenical Apologist
As I wrote in my very first post, recently I have been called upon more and more to defend my faith – Christianity in general and Catholicism in particular.
The continued questioning by others about my faith was actually one of the main reasons I started this blog in the first place. Sometimes, in an attempt to provide someone with a satisfactory explanation, I had to do quite a bit of research. A blog will now allow me to share the fruits of my hard work with more than just that one person! Also, as time has progressed I’ve noticed that much of the discussion has been around similar issues so I intend to use this blog to publish my explanations to some of the more commonly-asked questions and invite feedback.
However, before I can start addressing some of these issues, I feel the need to write about a tension that I find within myself, the tension that comes from being an “Ecumenical Apologist”…
