In this Sunday's gospel reading, John the Baptist tells us that we must produce good fruit.  Speaking to the pharisees, he says that "Even now the ax is lying at the root of the trees; every tree therefore that does not bear good fruit is cut down and thrown into the fire."  This warning applies to us even now - perhaps especially now.

Those of us who are fortunate enough to live in a modern first-world country are so blessed.  We have lives of comfort and convenience that are unmatched in all of history.  Yet, even in the midst of our comfort, we must be vigilant.  Our Lord promises us that we will be judged by our fruit.  Yet, how are we to know what our fruit is?

I think it's important to step back and really identify what the true impact of our choices are.  In this episode, I attempt to help you identify what your fruits are, and what the results of your choices really mean.  Next episode I'll discuss how to improve those fruits.
