The Revelation of Forgiveness

March 5, 2020 · Fr. Andrew Stephen Damick
When the gospel began to be preached, forgiveness from God was a revelation, something new that was outside of anyone’s expectation of how a god should operate.

The Sin That Corrupts From Within

February 16, 2020February 16, 2020 · Fr. Andrew Stephen Damick
Sexual immorality is a kind of evil that introduces corruption into a person and his community in a way that is deep and damaging like almost nothing else is.

The Idolatry of the Pharisee

February 11, 2020 · Fr. Andrew Stephen Damick
If we read the parable of the Publican and Pharisee merely as a morality tale about being humble rather than prideful, we miss how it is placed in the larger narrative of the Scripture and all the revelation of God.

The First-Born

February 11, 2020 · Fr. Andrew Stephen Damick
As co-heirs with Christ, today we are offered in His holy temple along with Him. Today we share in His place as the first-born, both receiving and distributing the inheritance of God to all our siblings. And today we do so as a royal priesthood, both priests and kings, bringing God’s presence even to the nations.

January 8, 2020 · Fr. Andrew Stephen Damick

Moral Revisionism is Irrational and Anti-Christian

December 17, 2019December 17, 2019 · Fr. Andrew Stephen Damick
If we are to believe the moral revisionists, it's possible that what brings you death today might instead bring you life tomorrow. This is nonsense, and this is anti-Christian nonsense.

Moral Revisionism is Just Bad Protestantism

December 16, 2019December 17, 2019 · Fr. Andrew Stephen Damick
The claim that dogma is absolute but morality can be revised is a repackaging of a sixteenth-century Protestant dilemma, conditioned by a seventeenth-century German Protestant movement.

“. . . the spirit of wickedness in high places is now so powerful and many-headed in its incarnations that there seems nothing more to do than personally to refuse to worship any of the hydras‘ heads.” —J. R. R. Tolkien
