Is it too much to say in this time, in America, that we are on a train bound for hell? If that seems extreme, can we at least ask the question: Where is this train headed? My latest reflection: "A Big Beautiful Train."

"My mission of being in the heart of the people is not just a part of my life or a badge I can take off. Instead, it is something I cannot uproot from my being without destroying my very self. I am a mission on this earth; that is the reason I am here in this world."--Pope Francis
There is every indication that Pope Leo XIV could follow Pope Francisβ embrace of liberation theology, a politically tinged movement that emerged in the 1970s and championed the liberation from social, political and economic oppression as a path to salvation.
Gosh! Thank you.

It was a privilege to interview a living saint, Maggy Barankitse, along with David Toole, the author of her biography, "Love Made Me an Inventor." @OrbisBooks Her internet connection was unstable. Just means you have to listen harder: youtu.be/qBlah0PzCpc?...
Can a Catholic be a Hindu? Jesuit Francis X. Clooney has sought to learn from both traditions with real devotion.

Roger Haight, SJ died today. At @orbisbooks.bsky.social
we published 9 of his books, beginning with his controversial "Jesus Symbol of God." Our final meeting was last year when I presented him with a copy of his final book, "FACING RACE." Appropriately, he died on Juneteenth. RIP.
10 years ago on June 17 2015, a young white supremacist, hoping to βignite a race war,β opened fire at a prayer service at Mother Emmanuel Church in Charleston SC, killing the pastor and eight other members of the African American congregation. My reflection in @giveusthisdaylp.bsky.social
In 2023, FPF honored our dear friend by carrying the torch for two of the causes he championed most β reform of the U.S. governmentβs secrecy system and unconstitutional abuse of the Espionage Act β through the creation of the Daniel Ellsberg chair on government secrecy.
Today marks the second anniversary of the passing of legendary whistleblower, anti-war hero, and FPF co-founder Daniel Ellsberg.
His courageous decision to leak the Pentagon Papers to the press in 1971 led to the most important Supreme Court case for press freedom in the century.
Fr Steve Bevans SVD has won the highest honor of the Catholic Theological Society of America: the John Courtney Murray Award. Very proud of our author @orbisbooks.bsky.social
