Connecting the phenomenon of St. Joan of Arc to its mystical meaning.

In this episode I expand on what I mean by “walking the Trail of the Dogmatic Creed” with St. Joan of Arc and St. Thérèse. From the previous episode, we now understand the characteristics of clarity of mind, agility of thought, and purity of heart. Pushing onward we seek to know St. Joan and St. Thérèse “as they know each other in Heaven” by imbuing ourselves in their life stories. As we do, self-evident truths become apparent; we now can compare our horizon of meaning with what we perceive is St. Joan of Arc’s horizon. Using the influence of St. Edith Stein’s phenomenology, we build a bridge of understanding between the natural phenomenon of St. Joan and its mystical meaning.
