Dad Talk - Solemnity of the Most Holy Trinity (Cycle A)

Dad Talk - Thirteenth Sunday in Ordinary Time (Cycle A)

This Sunday's Gospel reading includes one of Jesus's most difficult challenges to his apostles - and to us: "Whoever loves father or mother more than me is not worthy of me, and whoever loves son or daughter more than me is not worthy of me; and whoever does not take up his cross and follow after me is not worthy of me." Does Jesus really mean all this? We'll dig into that answer in today's Dad Talk. Please share with a friend, and God bless! Dad

Dad Talk - Twelfth Sunday in Ordinary Time (Cycle A)

It can be difficult to speak the truth about God and human flourishing in today's hostile culture. But it's not any more difficult than it was for the apostles or the Old Testament prophets. In this week's Sunday readings, Jeremiah and Jesus have some advice for how we should go about doing that. We'll discuss their wisdom in this week's Dad Talk. Please share with a friend, and God bless! Dad

Dad Talk - Eleventh Sunday in Ordinary Time (Cycle A)

Dad Talk - The Solemnity of the Most Holy Body and Blood of Christ (Cycle A)

Jesus's true presence - body, blood, soul, and divinity - in the Eucharist is one of the Catholic Church's distinctive doctrines, the source and summit of our faith. And though the mystery of the Eucharist is revealed in the Bible beginning in Genesis and continuing all the way to the Book of Revelation, the readings for this Sunday's Solemnity are key pieces of the puzzle. We'll dive deeply into these readings because it's so important to understand that our lives are united with God's when we receive the Eucharist in faith. PLEASE share this Dad Talk episode with a friend, especially one who struggles accepting that Jesus is truly present in the Eucharist. God bless! Dad
