1. On Saturday, we posted the disturbing news that Fr. Daniel O'Leary's talk was being advertised on the website of the Archdiocese of Liverpool.Â
During the weekend, we discovered that his presentation was also being promoted through the Archdiocese of Liverpool's official magazine, the Catholic Pic. This publication is sold in parishes throughout the Archdiocese and claims a readership of 20,000.
2. In Friday's article about evangelization, I spoke of the 4-dimensions of Liturgy, Doctrine, Prayer and Community Life.
Later on, I realized how 'woolly' that sounded! What I was driving at was the fact that the moral-life is lived out by the strength given to us by grace, by the sacraments and in the context of the communion and life of the Church. We are not saved as isolated individuals, but as members of the Body of Christ. The support of the Church community ought to be helping each of us to live the Church's moral teachings and to carry the crosses of our trials. This is especially important when Catholics find themselves in the midst of such a thoroughly secularized cultural situation.Â
I apologise that this was not made the clearest. Anyway, to give greater clarity, the phrase was updated a few hours later to read, 'the 4-dimensions of Liturgy, Doctrine, Prayer and Morals.'
These 4 aspects constitute the 'classical catechesis,' rooted in Acts 2:42, which has shaped official catechisms throughout Church history.Â
