  • i go to that church still so much fun i go to choir and sing every sunday

  • I go to this church I'm in choir

  • This was the same parish I grew up in. The good ol' Holtkamp Organ at 2:05.

  • I'm curious as to why christians cling onto the shepherd/sheep analogy. In any other context, being called a sheep is always taken as an insult (an unthinking follower).

    Then there's the matter of the shepherd. A shepherd doesn't care for and protect his flock for altruistic reasons at all. For the shepherd, the flock exists solely for profit.

    I've called the shepherd/sheep thing the longest running joke in history. But seriously, is there another reason why christians keep using it?

  • I feel I know you as a kid with that sheep story. I worked for a period of time on Catholic grounds helping autistic children or children with autism.

    I still remember the 4 young men who came to help out as volunteers who were going into the priesthood. They were good men.

  • The song your are talking about it is by Sufjan Stevens off his album Come on and Feel the Illinoise. The whole album is great, I highly recommend it.

  • The U.S. South can be really hard on gay folks and people of color. Are you ambivalent about those aspects of Southern ecclesial life?

  • What a beautiful church. I wonder what the song that ran for the majority of the video, particularly in the middle was; it's excellent.

  • So that is where your accent is from ; ).

  • I tend to agree. Lik-ee the father Matthew. He rocks, which is why I sub-ed. Cheers to you as well
