Bio
I am a priest of the Archdiocese of New York, ordained on December 18, 1963. After having taught nearly full-time for 45 years, ten of them at St. Joseph's Seminary, Dunwoodie, and thirty-two of them at The Catholic University of America, I am now retired and able to devote myself to continued research, writing, and lecturing. I assist at Sunday Masses at St. John the Evangelist Church, Goshen, N.Y.
I draw the title of the blog from St. Paul's description and defense of his ministry in 2 Cor 6:1-10. The Latin "<i>In verbo veritatis</i>" has always struck me as one of the chief forces on which the Apostle relied. Literally, it is "on the word of truth," but Ronald Knox gets it right also when he renders it: "on the truth of our message."
