On this episode, we discuss the precious gifts Jesus Christ instituted in The Church as instruments of grace, namely the sacraments. We hope this episode gives you all a general idea of what the sacraments are and why they are important to the Christian life. Also, Sam gives us an inside scoop (pun totally intended) into his life by sharing an embarrassing experience he once had with an ex-girlfriend. Enjoy!

On this episode, we discuss some of the implications that the possible existence of extraterrestrial life has for the Christian faith. Although this may seem like an odd topic to discuss, it is very relevant. With some of the most recent inexplicable sightings and an official note from the Pentagon on this topic, and in it stating that they will publish a file on UFO sightings in June, we found it particularly important to address what this means for the people of both reason and faith.

On this episode, we discuss the existence of evil and its manifestation in the world. We also talk about how God and evil can exist at the same time. But, this question is difficult to approach. On the one hand, evil is mysterious because it is sub-rational, therefore, not completely definable. Furthermore, evil is properly considered "non-being" because it is a lack of existence rather than an existent thing. Yet, on the other hand, we see it everywhere, it is seemingly more prominent than goodness. How did it come about? What is it? Why does it exist!? This episode dives into the depths of this topic's inquiry.

On this episode, we take on something new, namely a commentary on popular culture. We give an analogical, philosophical, and literary analysis of the lyrics and videography of Chance The Rapper's new song "The Heart and The Tongue". Interesting fact, Chance The Rapper directed and produced this song and its music video by himself. Indeed, an inspiring artistic challenge. Enjoy!

Does a philosopher from 2,500 years ago have anything relevant to say pertaining to the topic of happiness? What in the world is the greek notion of "Eudamonia" (happiness) anyways? No? What about a theologian from 800 years ago? Still no? On this episode, we give a glimpse into what the Church's understanding of this innate desire is and how it is properly practiced.
