I was brought up in the Christian faith. The United Methodist Church. All our neighbors were Roman Catholic Christians. They would yell to my four sisters and me,” you’re going to hell.” In the 1950s the Catholic Church was quite comfortable with a them vs us Christian faith. The past couple of decades the Methodist community seems to be comfortable splintering within “them vs us” regarding LGBTQ members. And now the Evangelical Christians splintering over Donald Trump being the second coming of Christ. My dissolution with human’s interpretation of Christianity has pushed me further from organized religion . Listening to Father Boyle is helping me to find a moral compass of the loving inclusive Jesus. My thoughts and people interactions are less painful, more hopeful. I’m becoming grateful for Father Boyle’s words as a lifeline to my soul. My life as an educator was grounded in service and love offering a widened understanding of opportunities for learners. I’m now realizing that rather than me changing the learners, the learners changed me. Thank you, Father Boyle.
