The Daily Liturgia

The Fall of a King and the Wisdom of the Messiah


Listen Later

Join us for a thought-provoking episode of the "Locusts and Wild Honey Daily Reflections" podcast, where we delve into the complexities of mental and spiritual health through the lens of scripture. This Saturday, November 25, 2023, we explore themes of humility, gratitude, and the pursuit of eternal wisdom.

We begin with a reflective homily inspired by the day's readings. What if King Antiochus hadn't recognized his greed? We ponder the transformative power of humility and contrition, as depicted in 1 Maccabees 6. In Psalm 9, we consider the choice between resentment and gratitude. How does gratitude shape our spiritual journey? And in Luke 20, Jesus’ teachings about resurrection prompt us to question: What if we lived only for this world?

Our "Five Questions" segment invites listeners to engage with these stories in a personal way. How do our desires influence our moral compass? What role does gratitude play in our lives? How does the promise of resurrection influence our daily actions?

For more in-depth exploration, visit our companion readings at Locusts and Wild Honey and join our community discussions on our Facebook page.

This episode aims not just to inform but to inspire and guide our listeners toward a path of self-improvement, emphasizing the importance of mental and spiritual wellness. Through the prism of ancient stories, we find modern-day relevance and wisdom.

Join us in this journey of faith and self-discovery, and remember to explore more resources on our website, Locusts and Wild Honey.
