Redeemed by Our Savior, I work out my salvation with fear and trembling in Pohang, South Korea, where I live with my wife, daughter, and son and teach English at a science and technology university. Baptized a Methodist and raised a Missouri Synod Lutheran in Buffalo, NY, I spent six years as a guest of the Anglican Communion before being received by the Grace of God into the One Holy Catholic and Apostolic Church on the Feast of Saint Andrew, my patron, anno domini 2002.
On this blog you will find the opinions of one Katolik Shinja (Catholic believer). On matters of Faith and Morals, I place myself in full obedience to Rome, and if I am in error, I beg the informed reader's correction. In all other matters, e.g. politics, economics, and culture, I seek guidance from my Catholic Faith and God-given reason, fully acknowledging that others may use the same to arrive at opinions radically different from my own.
This blogger's motto might be "I link, therefore I am." I have little interest in presenting original or novel ideas, or detailing the mundane events of my personal life, although I will do both from time to time. Rather, I aim to provide links to articles and ideas that I find interesting and that I think deserve a wider readership.
Oremus...
The Saviour of the World
Domine Iesu, dimitte nobis debita nostra, salva nos ab igne inferiori, perduc in caelum omnes animas, praesertim eas, quae misericordiae tuae maxime indigent.
Saint Andrew Kim Taegon O God, You have created all nations and You are their salvation. In the land of Korea Your call to Catholic faith formed a people of adoption, whose growth You nurtured by the blood of Andrew, Paul and their companions. Through their martyrdom and their intercession grant us strength that we too may remain faithful to your commandments even until death. Amen.
"We have heard enough of liberty and the rights of man; it is high time to hear something of the duties of men and the rights of authority." -- Orestes Brownson (1803â1876)
