What's a "hyphenated" priest? It's a priest who is also pursuing one or more other occupations. I am a student-priest, professor-priest and writer-priest. I am also a Jesuit priest, but that doesn't get a hyphen. I am currently doing all these things at Fordham University, in New York City.
SURFS UP!

Truth without compassion isn't.
When I was younger the verse was translated "Faith hope and charity, these three remain and the greatest of these is charity."
Then the newer translations came out and the word was changed to love which so easily gets confused with sexual love that we forget what the root of charity is, self giving sacrifice.
You make such a good point. Especially in the context of your post below. If we cannot be at least charitable about those who are our brothers in Christ, what does that say about us as Christians?
Thank you for posting this quote.
