Embracing the 'Scandal of Redemption'
Every once in a while a book comes along that reawakens our excitement in the Gospel. For me, that book was The Long Loneliness by Dorothy Day. Her life story showed me an authentic Catholic life that I hadn’t experienced before. It was a life filled with sacrificial love, otherworldly compassion, and an authentic grittiness that set me back on fire for the faith. When I finished Day’s autobiography, I felt compelled to action. After reading about her life, it seemed impossible for me to go on living the same way I had lived prior to picking up the book. I wanted more. ... I took to social media to get some ideas for my next read and was encouraged to pick up another book that would come to change my life, The Violence of Love by Blessed Oscar Romero. This book, a collection of various homilies from the soon-to-be saint and Archbishop of San Salvador, blew my doors off.
