Reading the Signs of the Times

The purpose of this 'exercise' is to ground people in their history as a church so that they may more readily read the signs of their own times and respond more appropriately as Jesus Christ would intend us to.

'If we do not learn to love the Church in its sinfulness, we will not love the Church loved by the Lord, but rather some figment of our romantic imagination.' - Henri De Lubac
