Blogito ergo sum! Actually, as N.T. Wright averred, "'Amor, ergo sum:' I am loved, therefore I am." Among other things, I am a Roman Catholic deacon. This is a public cyberspace in which I seek to foster Christian discipleship in the late modern milieu in the diakonia of koinonia and in the recognition that "the Eucharist is the only place of resistance to annihilation of the human subject."

California fires
It would be an aggregious oversight not to mention the fires that are raging across parts of Southern California. These fires have forced as many as 250,000 people to evacuate their homes. Sharon, over at Clarity Daily, has pretty eye-watering facts, details, and pictures of the devastation, including a map showing the huge areas engulfed in fire, as well as news about her brother's evacuation. So, today let us keep SoCal in our prayers, especially those who have lost their homes and those who have been forced to flee. As always, please pray for the intrepid men and women who are working to put the fires out, both for their safety and success.
