Father Koys is still on sabbatical and is staying with his sister Mary Lou in the Smoky Mountains of Tennessee.

Father explores good and bad signs on how we interpret them.

Father further explores the concept of guardrails. Ideally when we make a commitment, say in a committed relationship the contemporary thought is that marriage is not necessary. Because of concupiscence with no guardrail such as the confines of the Sacrament of Matrimony, there may be fertile ground for temptation. Living together within guardrails of the Sacrament of Matrimony the maintenance of a loving relationship is greatly assured.

Guardrails such as the 10 Commandments are necessary for society to function as God provides them for us to have a true faith.

Father Anthony with Tony regroup today after a week’s break to discuss the goings on, and people in the Parish. Father greets everyone and chats about how psychology has become a false god of sorts since the 1970’s and the writing off of faith as just mythology. He then focuses on the importance of living our lives in spite of earthy suffering as Christians in discussions on Vatican II, the choice angels and humans have in eternal salvation or condemnation, the sufferings of the prophet Jeremiah, and Peter’s rebuke of Christ in the Gospels. They discuss what that means and for us to be conscious of whether we are truly leading Christian lives as were called to as Catholics.
