Luke 23 : 26-46

Guest: Solo Mio

Jesus, remember me when you enter your kingly power.

Amen, I say to you, this day you will be with me in Paradise.

The sun's light failed.

He breathed His last.

 

There are so many evocative words within the passage today. Let the Holy Spirit drive you.  

John 8: 1-11

Guest- Tony Ramirez

Our parish MC joins us this week as we discuss the woman caught in adultery, Jesus' patient response, and what that could mean in our lives.  

What is Jesus telling you through this Gospel today?

4th Sunday of Lent

Luke 15: 1-3, 11-32

Psalm 34

Guest- Jenna

It's the parable of the Prodigal!

In this reading, more than any other reading, I need to emphasize the importance of putting yourself into the reading and becoming one of the characters.  

To allow you to deepen your experience, stop and describe what you are feeling, hearing, seeing, smelling, touching.  

Then let the Holy Spirit unfold the reading in your mind and pay careful attention to what the Lord shows you in this time.

Fourth Sunday of Lent

Luke 15:1-3, 11-32

Guest- Jenna H.

heavy with meaning- we discuss Luke's Prodigal Son parable.

halfway through lent!  

Everyone lean on the Holy Spirit and finish the race!

Guest- KT

3rd Sunday of Lent

Luke 13:1-9

Fig trees, Shakespeare, and neices!  OH MY!

This was such an odd Lectio.  We didn't start out by inviting the Holy Spirit in and boy, did I feel it!  Don't worry, we figured it out about halfway through and the Blessed HS fixed the problem for us!

Join two Elizabeth's as we do Lectio Divina of Matthew 1:16, 18-21, 24

My new church friend, Elizabeth, thankfully didn't think I was too much of a freak when I invited her to be a guest this week!

Hopefully I didn't scare her off!  She's really fun and very open to the Holy Spirit's movements.

A big thing I took away from her insightful sharing was God calling us to embrace our sins.  Our failures often tell more about who we are than our successes.  They also can bring us closer to Him- which is always a good thing!

First Sunday of Lent

Luke 4:1-13

Psalm 91

This episode is short, sweet, and solo.  I don't have a guest for this one.  I'm not even in the studio for this one.  I'm in a van, down-by-the-river, doing Lectio.

When I say down-by-the-river, I mean, in the parking lot of my son's ninja warrior class.  And I recorded the episode here to show you that Lectio travels well.  Not only is Lectio for Everyone (my new shortened mission statement) it can be done anywhere!  

So I am in my van.  But am I not also in the desert with Jesus, witnessing the many tests of His temptation?

Video Divina for the little kids- Jesus' temptation in the desert

Matthew 6:1-6, 16-18

Psalm 51 the Penetential Psalm

Guest- Sue

Sue comes to the podcast as a fellow coffee drinker.  She is a catholic homeschooler as well.

We talk important things like sushi, ramen, and the radical interior search that this Gospel is calling us towards.

8th week of Ordinary Time

Luke 6:39-45

Psalm 92

Guest: Izzy 

good trees = good fruit

bad trees = bad fruit

check your fruit to see how your tree is doing.  

 

My sister's daughter, Gianna, joins Frankie and me- we discuss the rather hefty passage of Luke 6:27-38, in which is held "the Golden Rule"- amongst others.

Gianna has trouble with "turn the other cheek"

I have trouble with "give to whoever begs"

Frankie has trouble with "love your enemies and do good to them"
