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.11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTdpjpI8gEn
It was written to open eyes.
Too often, stories of abuse within sacred spaces are buried beneath guilt, shame, or institutional power.11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKpFe8zXxis
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.11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkWc7p4iojN
You let their voices reach you.11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQQ2HyEsc71
And maybe, just maybe, someone out there feels a little less alone.
This isn’t a story about losing faith.11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4AAmPdHPC5
It’s a story about faith fighting back—11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVoN4uAMUNK
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:11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡukRamyC3Ny
You are seen.11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu9rDkVOGpK
You are believed.11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvWaWnMIJvO
You are not alone.
And if you are someone within the system who dares to break it from the inside—11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAYGM3j0jaz
Then like Father Ely...11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaNPI1dKUKo
May your gospel be dangerous.
