We have arrived at the “nugget day” or In Brief section for the paragraphs examining the nature of the Father in the Trinity. Fr. Mike reiterates some of the “nuggets” of wisdom from these past few days. He emphasizes the importance of how Baptism allows us to share in the life of the Holy Trinity. We conclude this section with a reflection on this profound call to share in the glory of the Trinity even though it exists “in the obscurity of faith.” Today’s readings are Catechism paragraphs 261-267.
This episode has been found to be in conformity with the Catechism by the Institute on the Catechism, under the Subcommittee on the Catechism, USCCB.

Segment 2: The Monroe Doctrine’s Lasting Legacy (2 segments)
In his ideas regarding American foreign policy, President James Monroe echoed both Washington and Jefferson, yet he had to worry about things neither of them did. His policy needed to follow the diplomatic thought of the previous administrations while also adapting to quickly changing circumstances and intentions. We look at how his thought affects political thought to this day with Brad Birzer.
It’s Look Back Friday! Instead of taking calls, Dr. Ray spends Friday’s revisiting previously aired conversations from “The Doctor Is In” in order to expand on his answers and the topics addressed.
