Advent is a time of preparation, something Luke Farinholt (brother of Austin Farinholt) and Anthony Ferguson are in the middle of with their vocation. Our guest, Luke, is engaged to be married in only a few short weeks, while Anthony is counting down the days until his ordination. Join Austin, Anthony and Luke as they discuss how Advent happens in our lives and how to enter into it and not just look forward to it being over.

What are some distinctions between private prayer and communal prayer? Jesus asks us to go into a private room to pray, but He also gave us the Liturgy of the Eucharist which is prayed together. Join Tina, Austin and Tim Bransford on a fund discussion about praying by ourselves with the Holy Trinity and praying with a group of people, particularly through the liturgy. 

Sean Forrest - speaker, coach, musician and missionary - joins Austin and Ken to talk about what it means to "enter in" to the encounter with others and spread the Gospel. When will God comfort us? When we get uncomfortable. Sean shares about his experiences being a missionary in his day-to-day life and also in his work in Haiti.

How can I be a good person when I've done x, y or z?  If we have done something bad, does that make us a bad person? No, but the fact that we can feel that way leads us to recognize that perhaps we desire a deeper sense of wholeness.

Father John David, Tina and Ken discuss this important topic and what it means to be whole, perfect, and to have integrity.

Halloween, All Saints Day and All Souls Day. What could be a more fitting topic than death? That's what we thought! Fr. Nick Redmond leads us through how we approach death, why we pray for the dead, and the importance of keeping death on our mind.

Deacon Dave Reaves, business owner and now a newly ordained deacon, shares with Ken and Austin some of his experience and thoughts on how to bring Jesus to the workplace. From visible signs to using particular charisms given to us at baptism, we can evangelize our colleagues, clients and all those with whom we work.

Why do I need to make reparation for the sins of someone else? In order to understand this question, we need to first dissect what it means to be the Body of Christ, and then we can understand why we would make acts of reparation.

Austin, Ken and Tina talk about the flesh and the spirit, and how they are in battle with one another. Using St. Paul's verse in the letter to the Corinthians discussing how he does what he does not want, and does not do what he wants to do. Our carnal nature is in battle with our spiritual nature. They open this topic up and discuss how we get so easily distracted (by cake) from our desire for Jesus.
