A Broken Catholic Man
Good day and peace be with you,
You are probably thinking Jason write a blog? Admittedly, there will likely be many mistakes as I'm far from an English major. I have been thinking and praying recently about starting a blog. At first, I thought, "it'll be great! I can write down everything about me and my life, how I made it to Texas, etc." However, I began thinking of ramifications of a blog and writing my story. Computers and the internet allow us to tell our story to our future generations without the risk of being deteriorated on notebook paper. As a result, everything I have written will undoubtedly become permanent one day. Said another way, there will be a time when I won't be able to correct what I've written, or further explain it. Then, I started thinking about my faith journey. What if I said something that was false about my faith? What if I shared too much? What if my great great grandson interprets something I've written wrong?
I think this is what has lead me to decide to publish a blog. One, I'm banking on my fellow Christians to keep my writings in line as far as truth. Secondly, talking about my errors and mistakes will show my humanity and my brokenness. Not in light of regret or a negative tone though, but how they have shaped me into the man I am today, a Broken Catholic Man.
I hope you enjoy reading about my journey, and you are able to take something away.
