Serving Christ and Connecting Catholics in Western North Carolina
Defective or dangerous – that is, inauthentic – leadership, at any level, concerning any plan or project, always departs from God’s providence, which we know from scripture, tradition and the settled magisterium. We are all in different circumstances, but we are all called to learn by the Light and to lead to the Light. That is genuine leadership, whether papal, political or plebeian. Its absence is chaos, corruption and crime.
