I want the fire in the belly that this writer has....I am a life long Catholic, consider myself Catholic but just not a church goer....my parents were devout Catholics and I hope someday I can gain their wisdom....

God is the only way...

God is the only way. His is my way. He helps me find my way at Mass. I get the fire occasionally when I go to church. Find a pastor you like, that’s a start. We’ve been church hopping lately, and have found a tremendous parish. Get involved; help out. It is amazing how that helps stoke the embers. I’ll pray for you.

Like NYer, I’m a Knight of Columbus. Being with a great group of guys who work together for good can be an uplifting experience.

What you said touches me. I am indeed a “church-going” Catholic but I don’t thnk my life matches the sanctity and faith of my mother’s. If I better followed her example, I would be a better person. She really exemplified the gentle personalism of traditional Catholicism.

Then study scripture. Not Catholicism or Protestantism.
