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.9Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOkcfL7e8d7
It was written to open eyes.
Too often, stories of abuse within sacred spaces are buried beneath guilt, shame, or institutional power.9Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBufwFNmLWH
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.9Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7Co5K6HcPI
You let their voices reach you.9Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQIxLkPbDTj
And maybe, just maybe, someone out there feels a little less alone.
This isn’t a story about losing faith.9Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZX8D8NJXFC
It’s a story about faith fighting back—9Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMbPLNC0x7L
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:9Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnciLnlE9rz
You are seen.9Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVr0e7KYN3l
You are believed.9Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzYLtW8unOY
You are not alone.
And if you are someone within the system who dares to break it from the inside—9Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoRov2nVCjf
Then like Father Ely...9Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkE56GsAlSy
May your gospel be dangerous.
