A blog by a displaced Catholic Texan working at a parish in a suburb of Milwaukee. Who knows what you're going to get. I am currently looking for employment (a job) in the Washington DC area in catechesis as a youth minister, adult minister, or something along those lines.

Michael Floyd's Tattoo

Floyd is a heck of a player.  While I'm not personally crazy about tattoos, I like the text of his:


I am the Lord's warrior. I am confident beyond conviction, a disciple beyond determination. I am confident beyond reason because my confidence lies in Christ. The results of my efforts must result in His glory.

Amen.

For His Glory,
Isaac

This legitimately excites me: Catholic-Orthodox Unity

Check out the article on the prospects of communion between the Roman Catholic and Russian Orthodox Churches.  For some reason, this makes me really happy and glad.  I guess the potential of overcoming 1000 years of non-communion (excommunion?) is awesome and wonderful and provides a witness to the world that even longstanding differences can be resolved peacefully.
Here's to it!
For His Glory,

Michigan Letter

" This is why we don't approach the Michigan game with the same tradition-laden respect, the pomp and circumstance, or the "contest of equals" honor reserved for the Southern Cal game. Rather, like Inigo Montoya closing in on the six-fingered man, we come with a singular focus. We are Notre Dame Football. You tried to kill us. Prepare to die."

Read the whole thing, a brief history of the Notre Dame/Michigan rivalry.

For His Glory,
Isaac
