First, sorry about the audio - I was trying a new setup, and apparently, I need to make some improvements.

In this episode, we touch on how the Church set up Scripture for the purposes of the Mass and how the Church has provided a means for us to get the most out of Scripture, "God's love letters to us."

Lectio Divina (Lectio, Meditatio, Oratio, and Contemplatio) are covered, as well as a brief lesson in Salvation History and typology.

Join us, you won't regret it!

CAVEAT: We cover some adult themes in this episode - nothing explicit or graphic - but it may raise questions among your children that you may or may not be ready to address with them yet, as it pertains to marriage. If you have younger children, please listen to this without them before deciding whether or not it is appropriate for them at their age.

Exodus - Journey toward Apocalypse, Part 3 of 3. This is now available on the podcast, as well as our new YouTube Channel - https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCgEdy5XmRP-sFB2OABpX9gA. Join us for Episode 16 of the podcast. In this episode, we tie everything together from the last 2 episodes, and we see that worship is woven throughout Scipture, that Marriage serves as the bookends of the Bible, and that the Book of Revelation IS the Mass. This is an audio presentation of the Final segment of the 3-part series conducted at the Sacred Heart Church in Norfolk, NE, on the 10th of April 2017.

We tackle some of the most pressing questions that Catholics have today - How should I dress for church? How do I keep from being bored in mass? If this stuff is so important, why haven't I ever heard it before? Join us and find out!
