Bienvenidos! New Tone & New Site

It's not actually new, I have just been revamping everything and giving it a new feel.. a new tone, if you will. New layout, new graphics, new content, new calendar, and a new BLOG (this one) to make everything simpler and more approachable. It is really the same site with the same purpose: to get you to HEAVEN.

With all the news surrounding Pope Francis' recent appointment to "TIME'S Man of the Year", it's interesting to note what a new tone will do for a public figure...and his public institution. 

Papa Francisco has captured the hearts and imaginations of the world, embracing a disfigured man, letting a wandering youngster hang out with him on-stage in the middle of a Mass, washing the feet of marginalized women and youths, living and transporting modestly, and speaking with remarkable off-the-cuff frankness and magnetic joy. 

People are paying attention because they see something authentic in another human being, and that touches hearts. This is the genius of Francis, and by reestablishing the Pope and his Church as credible moral figures, he is making Catholicism relevant to the world again.    

But realize this...nothing is new! Pope Francis takes after Jesus Christ, who always sends us who we need and at the moment we need them...We must need it really bad right now, because Pope Francis is so good!

Through all of this, throw out any notion that Papa Francisco is or will ever be "loosing up" on any Doctrines or Dogmas. Nothing is changed! Sins are still sins. Wrong is still wrong. The Church is really the same thing with the same purpose...only now, because of one man's living out the Gospel more fully and by the mystery of God's ever growing goodness, somehow Truth is more True.
