The Quarantine's Three Lessons About the Church

The quarantine's three lessons about the Church: One silver lining for me during this weird coronavirus shutdown has been the opportunity to return to some writing projects that I had left on the back burner. One of these is a book on the Nicene Creed.

Bishop Barron continues explaining how the "...One, Holy, Catholic, Apostolic Church..." brought him to reflect on what makes us "One, Holy, Catholic, Apostolic...".  It is the Eucharist that glues us together.  Maybe, just maybe those people who didn't believe in the True Presence in the Eucharist will feel Jesus' absence.  Maybe they will miss the Eucharist.  Maybe this forced absence from Communion will make them reflect on the reasons why they are missing Communion.

Catholics need the sacred Body and Blood to live.  Jesus is life.  And I am starving without Him.

Think.  If Jesus can become flesh in a woman, He can become flesh in bread and wine.
