Today Father Dave and Rick continue the discussion on Lent, starting with an explanation on the season and why we have it.  Then they continue with a great discussion, including:

  • Why we need to "take the time"
  • The idea behind fasting and the discipline that goes with it
  • Almsgiving
  • How Lent is a great time for spiritual development and moderating and controlling impulses that can detract us

Enjoy!

We'd also like to introduce you to a new affiliate partner to our show, a fun company called Sock Religious, a division of Catholic Concepts.

  • Need a pair of socks with St. Teresa on them? Done.
  • A tongue-in-cheek sticker of the Last Supper? Check.
  • While a portion of your purchase goes to support the production of Casting the Net, it's also a fun way to promote and support Catholicism through various products.
