Reflections Along the Jesus Way
January 2, 2024 – Quote for the Day:
“Garrison Keillor has done a masterful job in talking about ingrained religious attitudes and beliefs in the fictional town of Lake Wobegon. Keillor named one of the churches in his fictional town Our Lady of Perpetual Responsibility.
According to Keillor, there’s always something to be done at Our Lady of Perpetual Responsibility. No religious deed goes unpunished at this church. When one task is completed, ten more await doing. Our Lady of Perpetual Responsibility is a spiritual prison, where, as the lyrics to the Eagle’s Hotel California warn – “you can check out any time you like, but you can never leave.”
