Whoever wishes to come after me must deny himself,
take up his cross, and follow me. (Mk 8:27-35)
The challenge of being a disciple. There’s an old hymn that says: I have decided to follow Jesus, No turning back, no turning back.
These reflections are a result of more than 40 years of ministry as a Roman Catholic priest. Most of these years I spent in the Diocese of Charlotte which covers Western North Carolina. Now I am retired, and live in Medellín, Colombia where I continue to serve as a priest in the Archdiocese of Medellín.
