Rich Thoughts episodes

  • #532 - 15th Sunday in OT (B)

    10 min
  • #530 - 14th Wednesday in OT (I)
    Trying to make sense of dropping into chapter 6 of the 9+ chapter saga of Joseph. After a lot of exposition, we explore the benefits of being truthful. (St. John XXIII Parish, Knoxville, TN)
    5 min
  • #529 - 14th Tuesday in OT (I)
    The theologically ambiguous -- and therefore, theologically rich -- story of Jacob's wrestling with an unknown stranger. How does this inform our own existential struggles? (St. John XXIII Parish, Knoxville, TN)

  • #524 - 10th Thursday in OT (I) / Barnabas
    Is anger really a sin? Or is it about not admitting our own part in creating problems? Perhaps St. Barnabas -- the mentor and champion of St. Paul -- can help us pray through our interpersonal conflicts! (St. John XXIII Parish, Knoxville, TN)
    6 min
  • #523 - Corpus Christi (B)
    To understand our readings today (Exodus 24:3-8; Hebrews 9:11-15; Mark 14:22-26) -- and how they relate to the Eucharist -- we explore the Jewish beliefs about blood and Yom Kippur. (St. John XXIII Parish, Knoxville, TN)
