Each blog has a specific purpose and audience, so to date I have written three blogs, two of which have fulfilled their purpose and are now being compiled into books. I decided to start a series of blogs so that each could grow and reach the people who are interested in it without them having to follow other blogs. Some are building toward a book that will eventually be published. For now this website consists of two blogs:
Father Nikola at Large (formerly titled A Roman Catholic Experience, since I lived and worked in Rome) is the home page and, in a sense, the home blog. If you want to know about me and what I am doing, follow this blog. As a content creator and speaker this blog is also where you can find my upcoming public events, mostly where I’ll be saying Mass and hearing confessions.
Today’s Liturgy is a blog providing one thought on the liturgy of the day. As I wrote it over a period of a few years I covered about ninety-five percent of the possible liturgical days. This is now being published as the six volume Liturgy, Day by Day series, which will include the five percent of liturgical days I didn’t write as part of the blog. I cannot count all the chords that the Holy Spirit has struck within me during the celebration of the Eucharist and in the preparation of homilies, and I want to share some of those insights. If you want to focus on the message and not so much on the messenger (for him, see Father Nikola at Large), follow this blog.
Finding the Plug on rcspirituality.org was to help readers to draw spiritual fruit from the Eucharistic celebration. By “finding the plug,” I hoped that they’d establish a vital connection in Mass that helps them put their heart and mind into liturgical prayer in order to capitalize on all the graces the liturgy seeks to communicate. These reflections are now all available in the book Maximizing the Mass.
