This is disgusting. PrEP is lifesaving medication

Hey guys,

Just wanted to join the community and I’m looking to connect with anyone who grew up in the very specific "strain" of Catholicism that to me seems very specific to the Denver area.
The best way I’ve heard this described as is either “New Evangelization” or “JPII generation Catholicism”
It seems to occupy a space between traditionalist Catholicism (like it’s not Latin mass and definitely accepts Vatican II) but also not quite charismatic either. I’m asking because while there’s already limited resources online regarding ex Catholicism from traditionalists or charismatic there’s even less for this weird third place too.
The hallmark characteristics seem to be those associated with FOCUS, or Augustine Institute, liberal presenting on the surface but deeply conservative. Very rigid strict theological orthodoxy, theology of the body, but also an outdoorsy charismatic vibe of camp Wojtyla.

Would love to hear about your guys experiences or hear about any resources you guys have on hand, or just to hear your analysis!
