137 When is it ok to Jump Over A Church Pew?

from The Storydram · host Chris Kostelc and Kory LaCroix

A moment of humor turns into a moment of charity in this week’s episode. Kory tells the story of accidentally sending a fake episode title (“Signs Your Hemorrhoids Might Be Infected”) to a very normal listener… and how that led into a deeper reflection on crossing thresholds, sacred space, and what happens when life interrupts liturgy.Chris and Kory talk about jumping over pews, fainting parishioners, young parents in the narthex, and why sometimes the right thing to do in church looks nothing like what we think we “should” be doing. What do we do when prayer gets interrupted, when penances get inconvenient, or when the sacred feels messy?This honest, funny, and surprisingly pastoral conversation reminds us: charity always comes first, God shows up in the interruptions, and how Mass can still be worship even when it looks nothing like normal.
