TREASURES FROM OUR TRADITION
The confessional is a familiar setting in
literature and drama. Everyone from Doestoevsky
and Shakespeare down the line to Seinfeld has
used the sacrament to tragic or comic effect or to
reveal aspects of character otherwise hidden. All
of this theater, from world classics to slapstick, has
had a numbing effect on our own expectations,
and has skewed how the culture looks at us and
our struggle with sin and forgiveness, hope and
healing.
Yet the artists are on to something. The
reconciliation chapel is a place where hearts are
laid bare, where honesty is the watchword, and
people confess their deepest needs. It is also a
place of rebirth, or at least realignment. It is, like
the baptismal font, a place where something dies,
and where something else is born. Today, although
literature has barely caught up, the place is usually
not the dark and gloomy cabinet of old; rather it is
a chapel that speaks of peace, serenity, and the
comfort of a welcome home. People in one parish
were astonished recently to see their children
skipping with delight as they left the place of their
first confession. We have to wait a bit for world
literature to catch up with this reality, but at least
we can experience the joy of penance, the thrill of
a new beginning, the assurance of God’s love.
