This week in readings might be the week people get ticked off. Marriage is a touchy subject in the life of the Church right now. We look at these important readings and talk about them in the light of the culture vs the light of Christ and what He wants from us. We have the job of cleaning up the mess that following the culture has made. The job is one of suffering and patience, all addressed in this weeks readings.

Each week we look at the readings and discuss what they mean from our perspective in our culture and in the time and culture they were written. In this episode we look at the story that brought about the elders gaining the portion of the Spirit given to Moses, how the overabundance of things can lead to rot and death in your spiritual life, and try to figure out if Greed plays a role in all the readings this week or if Alanna is just poetically stretching the definition.

This week we look at the readings in light of the scandal rocking the church and discuss what they mean from our perspective in our culture and in the time and culture they are written in. In this episode we look at the persecutions of those who follow Christ and the depravity that comes from despair and irreverence. Peace that Christ can give to cultivate around you while others are cultivating war. The response to the second revelation of His Passion, humility and the call to greatness. In the end a heightened refocus on the children of Christ.

This week on Liturgy Live we discuss the readings for the 24th Sunday in Ordinary Time. We go over topics including the Spiritual Liberation of Israel from the readings of Isaiah. What does it look like to have a working faith? The witness Jesus expects of us once the knowledge that he is Christ is understood. If you would like to join in the conversation LIVE we record this podcast on the Catholic Link English Facebook page on Mondays at 3pm EST!
