Before doing my daily check-in over at Deacon Greg's blog this morning, I had never heard of Meredith Gould. In the combox of his post asking for participation in America magazine's Deacon Dialogues, she mentioned posting something about deacons on her blog. Viola here it is- Meredith's One month into Year of the Priest and I'm thinking "deacons".
Great take Meredith!
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."

You've never heard of me, Deacon Scott? I'm so shocked! Kidding. A bit. Glad you liked my post. As you can tell from my blog, More Meredith Gould, I'm a big fan of adult faith formation and see deacons in the forefront of that these days.
ReplyDeleteGod bless and thanks for the mention,
Meredith Gould
I got to talk to Meredith a couple of months ago--she's fantastic; smart and fun.
ReplyDeleteBesides, if Susan recommmends you, you're alright in my book!
ReplyDeleteMy primary ministry is faith formation for adults and not just RCIA! I am glad to know of you now!
ReplyDeleteI'm a big big big fan of IC! Her irony keeps me sane-ish.
