Metaphysics and phenomenology with St. Joan of Arc and St. Mary Magdalene.

We begin this episode with St. Mary Magdalene on the shores of Provence. How did we get here? And why did St. Joan of Arc lead us here? I discuss the meaning of the “divine glance” (St. Thérèse) or “unreflective certainty” (St. Edith Stein) in my experiential encounter with St. Joan of Arc in 2008. Importantly, we integrate into the model two important philosophical elements - metaphysics and phenomenology. We come to understand the meaning of “France” and Mary Magdalene’s spiritual role in living the Our Father. “Thy kingdom come; Thy will be done, on earth as it is in Heaven.”
