The Twenty Three Podcast

In this week’s edition of the 23 Podcast, Fr. Jeff and Parker unpack what Fr. Herb used to call “breakfast on the beach," and Fr. Jeff refers to as “the first fish fry in history.” Either way, it’s a compelling Gospel passage that should lead all of us to contemplation and prayer.

This, of course, leads to a wormhole of nonsense, where Parker actually finds a brewery named after his Confirmation Saint, which prompts him to encourage Fr. Jeff to conduct a live recording of the 23 Podcast at this brewery on-location.

If that alone doesn’t interest you, this weekend’s Gospel for Divine Mercy Sunday is also read and unpacked, as well as a look at upcoming Parish events. Listen now for 23 minutes of fun and faith!
