about this site
Catholic Sensibility is a personal blog by a Catholic layperson with comments and occasional other writings by Catholics and non-Catholics. We make no particular claims to have the completeness of a Roman Catholic expression of Christianity. It contains opinion, interpretation, and personal musings. That’s it. Nothing official or authoritatively connected to the Magisterium.

Forgiveness, Repentance, and Freedom
We’ve already discussed how the ascetic aspect of Lent, although it might seem to be a burden, is really about freedom. As Raimundo Panikkar once wrote, “True asceticism begins by eliminating the fear of losing what can be lost. The … Continue reading
