December 16, 2020 - The "O Antiphons" of Advent

As the Advent season wraps up, it's time for the "O Antiphons." On this episode, hear Bishop talk about these poetic prayers used as Christmas approaches. Each one begins with a different title for the Messiah, and each one proclaims the coming of Christ as the fulfillment of Old Testatment prophecies. As an added bonus, Bishop gives us a sneak peek into the new translation of the "O Antiphons" which are closer to the original Latin. Listener-submitted questions: Is the "no room at the inn" an historical truth or a metaphor? Gold, frankincense, myrrh, drum solo...what would you have taken as a gift for baby Jesus? What's your favorite Advent hymn? Favorite Christmas carol? What's the best Christmas gift you have ever received? What's the best gift you've given? —— Truth in Charity is brought to you in part by Notre Dame Federal Credit Union. —— Live: www.redeemerradio.com Follow us on social media: www.Facebook.com/RedeemerRadio www.Twitter.com/RedeemerRadio www.Instagram.com/IRedeemerRadio Submit your question(s): Call / Text (Holy Cross College text line) – 260-436-9598 Online – www.RedeemerRadio.com/AskBishop E-mail – [email protected] Subscribe to the Podcast: iTunes | Google Play | SoundCloud | RSS
