October 10, 2024 The Role of Good Works in Salvation
Episode 99: Year B – 28th Sunday of Ordinary Time
In this episode, we focus solely on the Gospel reading for this upcoming 28th Sunday of Ordinary Time, Year B, which, at least the long version, is Mark 10:17-30. There’s no major detail that requires an in-depth study. However, there are several details that have some relation to apologetics, even if only in a cursory way. The related topics are the divinity of Jesus, God as the source of our goodness, the causal role good works play for our final salvation, the gratuitous nature of the gift of salvation, and the radical teaching of Jesus concerning wealth and getting to heaven.

October 03, 2024 Is Jesus Lower than the Angels?
Episode 98: Year B – 27th Sunday of Ordinary Time
In this episode, we look at three details in the readings for this upcoming 27th Sunday of Ordinary Time, Year B. Two of the three come from the second reading, which is taken from Hebrews 2:9-11. Both details pertain to the topic of Jesus’ divinity. If Jesus is God, so it’s asked, how can he be “lower than the angels” and “made perfect”? The third detail comes from the Gospel reading, taken from Mark 10:2-12 and it has to do with the topic of divorce and remarriage
