Tagged as a pivotal figure in Irish politics, Martin’s strategy signals a commitment to centrist governance as the political landscape continues to shift.

The Church’s Authority

By Fr. Alexander Men
When discussing the authority left by the Lord to the Church, we must dismiss any notion of it resembling earthly authority. Forget that church authorities in the Middle Ages and other times sometimes resembled state power. This authority is fundamentally different and cannot be compared.
