C&SI - Meditating on Advent with Fr Frank Duhig - 15 Dec 2024 (S05 E03)

On this weeks podcast, we are joined by Fr Frank Duhig who gives us a reflection on Advent looking at the call of the season to turn back to God echoing the message of St John the Baptist. We are reminded that Advent is a penitential season where we are reminded that Jesus came to save sinners and that the spiritual life is a response to the invitation of Christ and is a total gift of God.  The premier example of this response is Mary, the Advent saint par excellence. Mary's response at the Annunciation is an example of how we need to understand our response to the role of Mystery and our ability to ponder these things in our hearts. We have our regular run through the upcoming liturgical odds and ends for the week including the saints of the week in part one with our weekly prayer space.We have our reflection on the Sunday gospel (Luke 3:10-18) where Fr Frank helps us to reflect on the challenge of John the Baptist for his listeners but also for us as we hear again Johns questions and responses.Text us at +353 874668950 or email at [email protected]
