October 27 St. Augustine's "Confessions:" Book Thirteen, Chapter Twenty-Three
Welcome, Catholic Pilgrims. Thank you for pushing play today. I may, I may, get on a soap box today. Hopefully, I can keep it cool. But, we will be talking about judgment today. Can we as humans judge? Anything? At all? We'll talk.

October 26 St. Augustine's "Confessions:" Book Thirteen, Chapter Twenty-Two
Hello, Catholic Pilgrims. What St. Augustine talks about today is something that I take to heart. I once was a Christian who lived according to my own will. I did not have a remaking of my mind. That changed and while I don't live the Christian life perfectly, I do understand that I must strive to live differently than what the world models for me.

We will be reading from Book Thirteen, Chapter Twenty-Two on page 331.

October 22 St. Augustine's "Confessions:" Book Thirteen, Chapter Eighteen
Welcome, Catholic Pilgrims. Do you know what your spiritual gifts are? I think mine is reading out loud. Just kidding. God gives each of us gifts and, if I've learned anything in the spiritual life, it's that you will always want the gift that you don't have.
