The Nest
From our nest to yours, this weekly blog shares the truth of God’s love, the sanctity of human life, and the beauty of God entrusting us to one another.
“To hell with it.”
On this Feast of the Baptism of the Lord, I think about Flannery's words; (yes, I want to be on a first-name basis with this brilliant writer whose books ruin me in the best possible way.) I remember a few years ago speaking with an evangelical friend who told me baptism was merely a symbol of a saved heart and was in no way necessary. …A symbol—merely representing a perceived reality but effecting no real change? Well, if that's the case, I wanted to echo my girl Flannery's words, "Then to hell with it!"
I pledge to joyfully reawaken a culture of life in my domestic church!
