Vocation Interview
My friend Joe Heschmeyer, a seminarian in Archdiocese of Kansas City, was recently on “Vocation Boom” on EWTN, concerning the subject of vocations…

My friend Joe Heschmeyer, a seminarian in Archdiocese of Kansas City, was recently on “Vocation Boom” on EWTN, concerning the subject of vocations…
Earlier this week, Joe at Shameless Popery produced an excellent couple of posts (Part 1 | Part 2) in response to an hour-long presentation by Evangelical Brian Edwards. In his lecture, Pastor Edwards attempts to prove why the Protestant canon is correct and why the Bible should only contain 66 books.
I strongly recommend you go and read Joe’s rebuttal. However, if you’re too lazy, here it is expressed in “meme” form…. 🙂
The authors behind my favourite apologetics website, Shameless Popery, have just posted the first part of the recording of their seminar “The Art and Craft of Catholic Apologetics”:
Just in case you didn’t you didn’t realize it, yesterday was April Fools’ Day.
About a month ago, Joe Heschmeyer sent out an email to a number of Catholic bloggers inviting us to do something a little different for April Fools’ Day this year. Rather than doing the typical “fake news story”, he suggested we do some kind of satirical analysis:
…[the] Catholic issues that maybe have crossed your mind, but you think, “This is much too stupid to write a blog post about.” It treads the fine line between the serious and the absurd.
I had shared with Joe my theories on He-Man, Christian Allegory and Transubstantiation when we got to hang out last November. It seemed to perfectly fit the criterion of “too stupid to write a blog post about” 🙂
Anyway, just in case you missed them, here are some of the other April Fools’ Day offerings out there:
Shameless Popery: How the Summa might address Zombie Uprising
The Thin Veil: “Pope To Blogosphere”
St. Joseph’s Vanguard: “The New Perspective on Peter”
Almost Not Catholic: I Relent!
Young, Evangelical and Catholic: Pope Excommunicates All Of Us!
