from Ave Maria in the Afternoon Full Hours · host Dr. Marcus Peter
Segment 1: Jesus Answers the Problem of SinToday’s readings are connected by Jesus’ covenant promise. The blood of Jesus ultimately answers the problem of our Sin. In the First Reading, Paul lays the foundation for God’s plan, which culminates with the bringing forth of Jesus as the promised savior. Marcus has more.Segment 2: Giving Everything to GodThe average United States Catholic probably consumes more political commentary and social media content than scripture, sacred music, or other spiritually edifying material. Christ didn’t climb the mountain of Calvary to receive a convenient weekend slot between our preferred political pundits or our favorite TV shows. Christ didn’t give his life so that you and I can identify primarily with political and social tribalism. We are called to something higher. Marcus has more.Segment 3: Navigating our Cultural RapidsLabels of “Nazi” have become a comma in discourse and vulgarity is now a sign of transparency. Invading church services is now heralded as civil rights agitation and any critique of radical Islam is suppressed as a phobia. Is there any hope? Dr Charlie Self joins us. This is a public episode.
