Is war all bad? Can it be good? Is it a Republican/Democrat thing? We don’t often hear much about the Church’s stance on war, yet in some ways it’s affecting us just about every day. Our own Jim Wolkensperg will walk us through the concepts and history of Just War Theory, touch on some specific elements and how they have been incorporated into international law, with time for us to talk about issues like the invasion of Iraq, the use of drones, and the developing situation with Iran. Participation will be most encouraged!

Conversion stories, whether they be of canonized saints or fellow Christians currently sharing this earthly pilgrimage with us, are as diverse as the nations and backgrounds God calls us from: the only common denominator is Grace working in our lives. Last year we invited a deacon to tell his story of how Grace worked in some ironic ways to draw him from atheism into ordained ministry. Next month we’re hearing Martin Cothran’s story. The Lexington Herald-Leader called him “a master of the 30-second sound bite” as he comments in the media on local and national issues. Whatever the state of the Presidential race a month from now, I’m sure he will have something to say about it! He lives with his family in Danville and teaches Latin, Logic, and Rhetoric at Highlands Latin School.
But to find out where he came from… you’ll have to come to Saint’s February 7th
