A Word from Our Outpost, with Joseph and Crystal Gruber

An Invitation to Ordinary Time // Episode 60


Listen Later

'Ordinary' has had a bad rap these days. But when the Church, year after year, designates some to to being 'ordinary', it's worth dusting off the word and seeing some more potential to it.

We used the Online Etymology Dictionary for this one— check it out and see why it’s Joseph’s favorite website! https://www.etymonline.com/ 

We talk about ordinariness as it relates to being well-ordered (ordered by whom, according to what principle, and to what end, you ask? We address all three questions!), its relationship etymologically to ordination and our role as participants in a kind of priesthood united to Christ, its relationship to harmony and our call to become harmonious, and finally ordinariness's relationship to adornment and ornamentation and how we can become beautiful this Ordinary Time.

If you liked the part about beauty, we have two other episodes touching on the topic-- one on Chastity and Beauty, and one on Beauty and Wonder. 

And feel free to subscribe to this podcast as well as share it with others. Our goal is to produce faithful, formative, and conversation-starting content for Catholic disciples of Jesus who are wrestling to be missionary-minded in their normal, everyday lives-- so if that applies to you or a friend of yours, we're hoping to serve you as best as we're able!
