The Man Who Talks About God

By Fr LW Gonzales On August 16th, 2010

At Sunday afternoon’s Ice Cream Social–all-you-can-eat with a choice of toppings for $1–while I was in the kitchen, a young boy of about five approached me with a wide grin, “I know you,” he said. “You’re the man who talks about God!” “Yep,” I replied with an equally wide grin, “that’s me!”

Question

By Fr LW Gonzales On July 28th, 2010

Is it judgmental to call a person judgmental?

I’m Back

By Fr LW Gonzales On July 20th, 2010

I needed a change in my daily routine, and bit of a break from the net. I’ve spent some time in the pool, actually enjoying the 110 desert heat. I’ve done a bit of reading, writing, praying, and chilling, so I’m feeling rested and renewed.
