Astonishing Strength: The Role of the Christian Prince - Fr. James Schumacher | Ep. 148

Church and State: how should they interact with each other? A question that has begged the attention of the world for centuries. We know that some separation is good, but what does good harmony look like? Fr. Schumacher uncovers many of the principles to understand this question properly, and shows many examples of the harmonious interaction between Church and State and also the tragic consequences in the absence of harmony. We hope you enjoy this episode; it's always a pleasure to have Fr. Schumacher join us.   Green Dragon: Get in touch with a comment or reach us at...

The Unmoved Mover: The Harmony of Faith and Science - Dr. Daniel Shields | Ep. 147

We are delighted to have Dr. Daniel Shields join us for this episode of the Green Dragon Podcast. Our conversation with Dr. Shields is about one of the arguments for God's existence, referred to as the Unmoved Mover argument. Dr. Shields shares with us how the reasoning for God's existence is logical both in natural reason and with the discoveries in science. It's truly fascinating hearing how to understand God's existence and how it fits with the world God created. We hope you enjoy this conversation, and we are excited for the next time to have Dr. Shields on the podcast.   Resources: - Dr. Shields: https://wyomingcatholic.edu/person/daniel-shields/   References: - Thomas Kuhn: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thomas_Kuhn   Green Dragon: Get in touch with a comment or reach us at...

The Voice You Believe is Your Own: Flip the Script - Elizabeth Rensch | Ep. 146

We speak from our beliefs, whether those beliefs are true or false. Since every action we make is based on a belief of some kind, we need to act from truth instead of a lie. Today, Elizabeth Rensch joins us on the podcast to discuss how to have better mindsets and beliefs about ourselves that are true and lead to a better life. It was a pleasure having Elizabeth join us, and we hope to have her on again soon.   Resources: - Mother Mary Francis: https://ignatius.com/authors/mother-mary-francis-p-c-c/   Green Dragon: Get in touch with a comment or reach us at...

Walking with Others in Their Call to Adventure - Ian Smith | Ep. 145

We're thrilled to introduce you to Ian Smith. He is a professional outdoor instructor for the National Outdoor Leadership School, referred to as NOLS. His journey in becoming an instructor was an unexpected turning point when he decided to attend a 4 month course in Chile before attending law school. This NOLS course showed him how much he loved the outdoors and decided to take a new path where he can offer others life-changing adventures. We hope you enjoy our conversation with Ian as we also explore many of his other interests and a deeper insight on what it's like to be an instructor as others find their way in the great outdoors.

You Give Your Time to What You Love: What Are You Available For? - Fr. Albert Santiago | Ep. 144

We are very happy to welcome Fr. Albert to the podcast. Fr. Albert is a native of the Phillipines and came to America in his service as a priest. We talk about what life looks like as a priest and how that looks serving in a foreign country. Then, we discuss finding one's vocation in life: a topic that Fr. Albert shares some great wisdom on. Our conversation ends on asking the question of what are we available for? This simple question shows what we truly love in life, and is a powerful perspective to see how we should better use our time in this life.   Green Dragon: Get in touch with a comment or reach us at...
