Episodes
We do not claim to be a podcast with all the answers but to be open to having difficult conversations and explore the nuances of Truth and grow in our opinions. We discuss what does it look like to be fed by the Holy Spirit, how do we interact in holiness with the world, and the question of dehumanization in our culture. Please share or contact us, we would love to hear from you!
What makes a "Good Christian" or a "Good Catholic"? Can there really be such a thing? How do we approach others or even ourselves when mistakes are made? Can we even take credit for being good? These points made by Pope Francis and C.S. Lewis are discussed in today's episode!

What does the phrase "meet them where they are at" actually mean? What dangers await us as we try to preserve our own cultures or try to control how the Gospel looks in others? We discuss these issues and more in this episode where we dive deep into using a few good examples of how we should not build a wall to prevent sinners from joining the Church while not just ignoring sin at the sacrifice of being inclusive. Join us...
What is the difference between 'Joy' and 'Happiness'? How does our perception of what is fair change our spiritual life?

We embark on a new phase in this season. We will be teaching on how to worship, specifically the Roman Catholic Rite. However we will be following the ancient flow of Christian liturgy and this will be applicable for many Christians.
In today's episode we discuss the principles needed to start: clearing out the clutter in our hearts and minds, baptismal promises, reverence, and how that looks in a healthy Church.
Have you ever thought about your finances in the light of God's wisdom? We discuss the advice on self care and care of our friends and neighbors in Wisdom of Ben Sira chapter 14.

Fair warning, this is a heavy podcast. We talk about being hurt by the Church, and the people in it. We talk about handling the breakdown of our ideas. We talk about sex, and those in leadership roles who are obsessed with it and morality around it. We talk about authority. Most importantly, we affirm that we love Jesus, His Church, though we have been hurt by it. It takes a great deal of maturity to allow the false ideas attached...
John 14:20 - "On that day you will realize that I am in the Father and you are in me and I in you." Ever wonder what this looks like and what effect that has on the world?
Apologies for the short episode this week, with the Mission: Flint, we were a little tired. Please take some time to pray for those who were on the retreat that the fruits continue to grow in their lives!
Looking for rest? It's hard to get it and when we do, it almost never feels like it's enough. We discuss why that might be and what we can do to receive rest. We discuss what Jesus might have experienced in His humanity in this regard as well, and try to use that as a roadmap.
