You’re St. Melito of Sardis! You have a great love of history and liturgy. You’re attached to the traditions of the ancients, yet you recognize that the old world — great as it was — is passing away. You are loyal to the customs of your family, though you do not hesitate to call family members to account for their sins. Find out which Church Father you are at The Way of the Fathers! |

You’re St. Justin Martyr! You have a positive and hopeful attitude toward the world. You think that nature, history, and even the pagan philosophers were often guided by God in preparation for the Advent of the Christ. You find “seeds of the Word” in unexpected places. You’re patient and willing to explain the faith to unbelievers. Find out which Church Father you are at The Way of the Fathers! |

Well, maybe an opus minimus....
Tim,
1. Well, I'm not Catholic, so I don't know. Best bet would be to ask Michael Barber of the blog "Singing in the Reign". Or ask Ben himself.
2. Evangelische is German for Lutheran or Protestant.
Hi Tim. Well, as a Protestant I'm of course doing theology from a Protestant perspective. But I'm not trying to offer a "Protestant theology" -- instead, I'm trying to think about my own faith in a way that does justice to the faith of the whole church.
Anyway, in the "further reading" suggestions at the end of each post, I'll generally include one or two texts by Catholic authors -- so you could always look up some of these texts if you wanted to.
