Author’s Note
This story is a work of fiction.
But its emotions, its silences, its discomforts—are very, very real.
“Confessions of a Priest” was never written to mock religion, destroy faith, or scandalize for shock value.10Please respect copyright.PENANA8wZnwLJQPY
It was written to open eyes.
Too often, stories of abuse within sacred spaces are buried beneath guilt, shame, or institutional power.10Please respect copyright.PENANA9woooqIdqb
Too often, survivors are told to pray the pain away, rather than speak it.
Through Ella, Ely, and Clark, I wanted to explore the blurred lines between belief and obedience, silence and complicity, truth and sacrilege.
If you’ve made it this far, thank you.10Please respect copyright.PENANAaDZ9DefTmV
You let their voices reach you.10Please respect copyright.PENANAKXXs96n4cx
And maybe, just maybe, someone out there feels a little less alone.
This isn’t a story about losing faith.10Please respect copyright.PENANALnjutEPQ2R
It’s a story about faith fighting back—10Please respect copyright.PENANASqaOaMLvS4
against corruption, against manipulation, against the myth that holiness makes someone incapable of harm.
If you are a survivor, a seeker, or someone still healing:10Please respect copyright.PENANAYgoapaOSqA
You are seen.10Please respect copyright.PENANAx1Yy437Sym
You are believed.10Please respect copyright.PENANArLeUvFQBY6
You are not alone.
And if you are someone within the system who dares to break it from the inside—10Please respect copyright.PENANATgDp9VswUM
Then like Father Ely...10Please respect copyright.PENANA7o4AeQQDVr
May your gospel be dangerous.
