- Episode 3: Where Do We Get Our Energy to Persevere in Our Voyage into the Spiritual Deep? (June 21, 2017)Episode 3: Where do we get the energy to persevere in our voyage into the spiritual deep? In this reflection, Fr. Henchey shows how baptism changes our essential character, bringing us new life and making us more open to the grace that will transform us as we ever so gradually work to become more Christ-like during our pilgrimage here on earth." June 21, 2017.59 min
- Episode 2: Four Old Testament heroes: Abraham, Moses, David and Jeremiah (June 14, 201Episode 2: In this reflection, Fr. Henchey will tell us about four Old Testament heroes: Abraham, Moses, David and Jeremiah, all of whom God called "out into the deep" from their so-called comfort zones to great heights of spiritual growth. In that sense, they all prefigure the great St. Peter himself and their stories enhance our own understanding of how we, too, might travel further "out into the deep," in our own spiritual journeys.

- Episode 1: Why Peter, the Most Ordinary of Men, Can be a Model for Us on our Own Journeys of Faith (June 7, 2017)Episode 1: In this inaugural episode, Fr. Henchey and Lisa show us why Peter, the most ordinary of men, can be a model for us on our own journeys of faith. In hope and in trust and despite his many weakness and failings, Peter never gave up on his willingness to move beyond his “comfort zone” and into the spiritual depths, as he gradually conformed himself to the model of Christ.

About Duc in Altum
From the publisher's feed
Luke’s Gospel tells the story of the fisherman, Simon Peter, who had fished all night in familiar waters, but had caught nothing. Christ commands him, “Duc in Altum,” that is, “push out into the deep…
and lower your nets for a catch.” Although skeptical, Peter does just as Jesus commands. Out in the deep, he catches so many fish that his nets begin to tear and his boat is in danger of sinking. Peter's astonishment is overwhelming. Christ reassures him, "Do not be afraid; from now on you will be catching men."
Peter was an ordinary man called to an extraordinary mission and who grew, by fits and starts, ever greater in the spiritual life by his ever-hopeful trust in the Lord.
Each week, and in the style of a directed retreat, Fr. Joseph Henchey and Lisa Fortini-Campbell will delve into a different dimension of Peter's growth in faith, connecting it to the vast treasure chest of Scripture and the Magisterium to show how we, too, can move further out into the deep as we follow Christ in the path of the fisherman, our first Pope.
