Church has written out a preference for male altar servers. Today Father discusses this topic in tremendous depth. One the baseline teachings required to understand the topic is why the Church only ordains men into the priesthood.  Following those teachings, Father also discusses the importance of women in the church. A central teaching that develops is the relationship between the clergy and the priest during the mass.

There has been a perception that serving during the mass as a lector, alter server, Eucharistic minister, or cantor makes you “extra Catholic”. Today, Father discusses this conversation to discuss whether it is true or not. He also teaches about the Eucharist in the second portion of the episode.

As we progress through life we are called to emulate Jesus. One of the most important things that Jesus did that we often fail to is to pray. We devote this entire episode to teachings Jesus gave us on prayer as well as the positive outcomes we receive.

We begin by discussing the challenges of the faith that are placed upon us by Jesus. Father describes why he chose this path after a living a godless childhood. How much of the Faith is part of our individual identity? We discuss the need to resist selfishness, as selfishness is a key variable that holds us back from walking the path of Christ. God is love, and love by definition cannot be selfish. Father calls us to renew our mind and outlooks of life. Walking the path of Jesus does not end just love shall not end. 

Please note at times the audio gets choppy, the connection had a couple of weak moments.
