On October 21, 2020, Fr. Eric gave a live-streamed talk to the Catholic Mom’s Group at St. Leo’s in Brooklin, Ontario about the subject of how to pray with the Bible. Fr. Eric reviewed various practical tips with regards to how to read the Bible, engage in fruitful meditation, and enter a proper spirit of contemplation.

The structure of Fr. Eric’s talk was based on an outline from a book entitled Fire of Mercy, Heart of the Word: Meditations on the Gospel According to Matthew (Vol. 1) by Erasmo Leiva-Merikakis (San Francisco: Ignatius Press, 1996). 

Other works cited include Inside the Bible: An Introduction to Each Book of the Bible (San Francisco: Ignatius Press, 1998) by Kenneth Baker; and Catholic Bible Dictionary (New York: Doubleday Religion, 2009) by Scott Hahn.
