Our third annual "Limping Into Lent" involves a beat-up version of Taylor and Fr. Anthony laughing through the pain. They've both had rough weeks, Taylor loses hope and Father attempts to help.

Our guest this week is youth minister Logan Mayes. It's essentially a conversation of the classic priest, youth minister and podcaster walk into a bar and share their cringy-est stories from their time in the Church. It's a reminder that even through all the craziness, the Church is still home.

In the final segment, Taylor pokes the bear and asks Father why he won't pray with him, why he doesn't use his superpowers every day and more!

Lent is here and it's time for us to accompany Jesus into the desert! Join Gary as he looks at the Mass Readings for the 1st Sunday of Lent. And, while this week's message focuses on Satan and his tricks, a positive theme emerges. With the help of Jesus Christ, we can overcome any temptation the devil sends our way!

Today's Psalm hit me hard and I honed in on one word ... contrite!

There’s a deep meaning behind the 40 days of Lent. The number 40 has a long biblical background, from Genesis to Jesus’ 40 days and nights in the desert. On this special Ash Wednesday episode, Scott Hahn and Rob Corzine give both the biblical significance of this season of penance and some practical advice for Lent.

Lent is a time to meditate on how best to overcome temptation. Christ was tempted in the desert in his 40 day journey, and we are tempted every day in some form or another. Jesus taught His disciples to pray that the Father 'lead us not into temptation'. What does He mean? Let's go beneath the surface.

Isn’t it a contradiction to say that Jesus is God and man at the same time? How can I believe in Jesus when the only evidence for him comes from the Bible?

Questions Covered: 

 

14:10 - My friend says he is religious but not Catholic. How can I explain to him why being Catholic specifically is very important? 

16:54 - My sister perceives Jesus as a demi-God. How can I set her straight? 

28:34 - How can we know that the historicity of the gospels is accurate?  

41:55 - I have an atheist friend who always criticizes God’s treatment of people in the Old Testament versus the New Testament. He doesn’t believe they are the same God. What can I say to him? 

46:53 - I have a lot of atheist friends who want to separate Christianity from philosophy. How can we bring the two together?

Who were the Old Testament prophets? Did their entire lives lead us to Jesus? Find out here with Fr. Thomas Esposito.

Questions Covered:

 

20:36- How do you interpret Isaiah 13-14, the lion laying down with the lamb?  

28:42 - Were all the prophets celibate? Does Scripture say anything about this? 

31:15 - How do I read the prophets? I am a beginner and am intimidated. There seems to be much that I don’t know. 

36:33 - Isaiah references the “young girl” in Hebrew, and later it is translated into Greek. How does this agree with the last few verses of Revelation? This seems to alter the meaning from the original. Why was this done? 

45:06 - Can you talk a little bit about the prophets who are integrated into books of the Bible that do not have their name?  

49:40 - Can you talk about Elijah? Is his life a parallel to the Assumption? 

52:23 - Was John the Baptist the last prophet? Did Jesus’ ministry begin when John was beheaded?

To ignore the need to heal from our anger is to stifle the Holy Spirit within us.
