    Episode 88: We Can Do More
    Sep 25 2024
    James isn’t telling us to sell everything and give it all to the poor. And Jesus only said that to one man, because that was the one thing that was holding him back from the fullness of life for which he was looking. Still, it is worth remembering that Jesus teaches us that wealth is a great danger. Why? ...

    Episode 87: Selfish Ambition Versus Magnanimity
    Sep 18 2024
    We frequently hold up St. Joan of Arc as an example of magnanimity. Her famous words – “I am not afraid. God is with me. I was born for this!” – are not proud, arrogant or boastful words; they’re words that flow from a greatness of soul...

    Episode 86: What Does It Mean to Have Faith?
    Sep 11 2024
    What does it mean when Josephus says, “Repent and believe in me”? He’s certainly not telling someone “how to get to heaven.” He’s more or less saying, “Abandon your current way of acting (in this case, by waging war against Rome) and put your trust in me.” Such an exhortation relates to action...

    Episode 85: God’s Special Interest
    Sep 4 2024
    Here’s the simple truth: there are no unimportant people. Every. Single. Person. On. The. Face. Of. The. Earth. Is. Made. In. God’s. Image. And. Likeness. Every. Single. Person. On. The. Face. Of. The. Earth. Is. Worth. Dying. For. To. God. Everyone. May the Holy Spirit open our eyes today and every day to see others as He does. And to love them, speak to them, and speak of them, accordingly. James 2: https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=James%202&version=RSV ======= Have a comment about this podcast? Contact us!

    Episode 84: Should I Stay Or Should I Go?
    Aug 28 2024
    Even though we’re beginning to open up the letter of James this week, my mind is still lingering with the Gospel from last week (John 6:60-69). In fact, I might suggest there’s a connection between these words from James and all that John recorded in that most momentous passage.

    What do I do when I come across such texts? Do I come at the text presuming the Word of God is wrong, or do I approach it humbly, willing to do the work necessary so as to understand what’s being revealed to us by the Holy Spirit?

    Over the past five years now, the Lord has been teaching us in ACTS XXIX some simple ways to return to what Cardinal Cantalamessa reminds us was the common modus operandi for the saints.

    Episode 81: One Indicator of the Success of the Eucharistic Revival

    Many in the Church in our country are continuing to bask in the beauty that was the National Eucharistic Revival. It has been described by more than a few as an event that could, please God, be similar in impact to St. John Paul II’s World Youth Day in Denver in 1993.
