There are like four things that if you did one of them it would change you life, literally change your life. Today's topic it one of them... and next weeks will cover another! Today we cover St. Bernard on the Saints on All Saints Day.... happy bladed all saints day! I wanted to do this sooner, like on All Saints Day, but it turns out life is a thing and I want to be present to the people around me.

I finally found a friend to join me to talk about the catholic faith. Today's podcast is a long form discussion covering leisure, prayer and how that changes when growing in the faith. We also talk about our stories, and how we became Catholic. And we talk about whether it is okay to lie if there are Nazis looking for Jews. I hope you enjoy the Podcast!

The Aquinas series continues!

This episode goes over the fullness and perfection of contemplation in Aquinas' Prologue. In this episode, we find that fullness is related to power, and perfection to the sacraments. Yes it is weird, but it does make sense when Aquinas talks about it.

What a doozie, in this episode we get to take a look at Mary The Mother of God, and what scripture has to say about her. We cover Genesis, Revelation,  1 Kings, and The Gospel of John to see what scripture has to say about Mary. Also, we take a look at some early church fathers and Catholic Saints to see what they have to say: John of Damascus, Augustine, and Thomas Aquinas. 

Don't know if I mentioned this in the Podcast but Theotokos = Mother of God (literal translation = Birth Giver of God). Which is important in John of Damascus' quote.

Just  for warning I do mess up a couple of quotes, I mention this in the beginning, but I just want to make sure that there that some of these miss quoting of scripture do not scandalize you.

God Bless!

New Series! I am starting a new series on Thomas' Aquinas' Commentary on the Gospel of John and this is the first episode! 

This episode goes over the the first part of Aquinas' Prologue, and in the prologue, we start to come to understand contemplation as the Angelic Doctor sees it. Aquinas breaks down John's contemplation into 3 parts as to its height, its fullness, and its perfection. 

This episode cover the height of John's contemplation, which is further broken down into 4 parts, a height of Authority, a height of Eternity, a height of Nobility, and a height of Incomprehensibility.

In this episode, we take a look at what St. Augustine has to say about the prayer of St. Paul, and also what are the implications of God's responses to our prayer. Also, less on topic, I got a new microphone, and it sounds great!
