I have never felt comfortable with this kind of charismatic “worship” inside the Catholic Church. Too often, not enough emphasis is put on orthopraxy. Even if they are faithful to Catholic teaching, this kind of “Reformed” activity ultimately ends up sending a mixed message, along the lines of, “We believe what the Catholic Church teaches, but we will worship like our Reformed brethren.”

Our "Reformed brethren" don't speak in tongues. Pentecostals aren't "Reformed". Presbyterians are "Reformed".

Steubenville, through Scott Hahn, gave birth to CHN. They're bringing Protestant ministers into the Church by the dozens.

I was at one Charismatic Mass one time. It seemed very protestant like to church for lack of a better word. It wasn’t what I’m used to.
