Canto 4: I discuss the opening lines of the Canto that describe Dante's physical experience of the supernatural world. We dig into the citizens of the 'rim' of Hell or Limbo where the "good people" go that's neither punishment or paradise. I discuss the issue of babies in hell and what the NT teaches about the subject. We end on the subject of the ancient world and the place of the 4 cardinal virtues and the 3 theological virtues of the the Christian tradition.

The Sad Souls that we encounter just pass the Gates of Hell are those who were neither Rebels or Faithful. We live in an era where indecision is the preferred decision, the mushy middle. In this Canto Dante faces the gates of Hell, the boatman of the river Acheron and the Bad Seed of Adam.

Everyone who is called to some kind of adventure, challenge, change or new endeavor will wrestle with courage. Many come to this point and talk themselves out of following through on their vision, obedience or dream.  Fear and anxieties can steal from us the new season God has for us. Trust in Heaven's Help is critical in the journey of faith.

LeeElla and I share our story about the challenges and opportunities discovered in parenting prodigal children. With the recent surrender of our eldest son to Jesus, we thought we would share our side of that decade plus journey. We hope to encourage friends and families who are working through these difficult chapters of life and see that God can do great things in us all, though it all.
