I'm recording this on Dec. 31, 2022 at 11pm. My last episode was recorded in July. That's a bit of a gap. So, I share my New Year's Resolution to be more disciplined in recording episodes. I also talk about what the topics may include.

Up until now, each episode of Season 3: Seeking God’s Face, appeared on a random schedule.  I look forward to talking with you more often in 2023. So, until we meet again, be safe, be happy, be well, and God bless.

In this episode I talk about a subject that I have tried hard to avoid. However, with the reversal of Roe v. Wade I felt like I wanted to say something. I have framed the topic around Jesus' parable of the Good Samaritan.

Season three is all about how I began to live out my faith as a Catholic Christian, learning the various devotions and embracing teachings that were foreign to my Protestant and Evangelical past.

For a year or so, I was part of a 5 member men's group. On our last meeting, one of the members commented that Jesus committed suicide. That was the second time I had heard that comment. So, I decided to address this in this episode.

The volume on the original recording for this episode was way too low. So, I remixed it. Much better. 

What is liturgy? Coming from an Episcopalian/Baptist/Evangelical/Charismatic background, I was unfamiliar with Sacred Liturgy (commonly called "Mass"). I talk about RCIA, the Liturgy of the Word, being dismissed half way through Mass, and my process of being able to fully participate in the Liturgy with the rest of the church.

In Part 2 I talk about my own musings about Time, St. Augustine of Hippo's thoughts on time, and St. Thomas Aquinas' thoughts on the Eucharistic Sacrifice. I use the Catechism of the Catholic Church to talk about time, and look at some Bible passages that talk about how the sacrifice of Christ on the Cross at Calvary can be timeless. I hope I provide food for thought.

In this episode, I explore what it meant that the Eucharist is a sacrifice, how sacrifice is portrayed in the Bible (both Old and New Testaments), and what sacrifice means for worship. In part two, I will look at how the sacrifice during the Mass isn't a different sacrifice from the sacrifice of Jesus on the cross.

In this episode I talk about seeking God's face in the Eucharist. What does it mean to say the Christ is really present in the consecrated bread and wine?

My introduction to the Eucharist. The word eucharist comes from the Greek eucharistia meaning "thanksgiving". A fitting topic to publish on Thanksgiving Day. The title of this episode comes from the Bread of Life Discourse found in the Gospel of St. John chapter 6.
