Put Out Into the Deep | #1511

from Pilgrim Priest Hosted by Fr. Joel Sember

Ordinary Time, 5th Sunday (C) Peter looks good on the surface; he has a good life and a successful career and he's not interested in what Jesus is offering. But underneath, Peter is not so good. He feels like he is failing at fishing and failing at life. Even deeper down, though, Peter is Very Good. He is loved by God and he hasn't ruined God's plans for his life. Jesus invites Peter to "put out into the deep." He is not only calling him to go fishing, but also inviting Peter to move below the surface, through the layer of "not good", into that place of "Very Good". Many couples look like they are good. But underneath, things are not so good. For national marriage week, consider ways that you can move together through the layer of "not so good" into the deeper place that is Very Good. (9 Feb 2025) Going Deeper: How is Jesus inviting you personally to "put out into the deep?" What would it look like to go deeper into your own heart with Jesus? What would it look like to go deeper into your marriage or other relationships?

War Priest Fr. George Hill, Alex Braszko A podcast for Orthodox Christian Warriors serving in the military and as first responders, past, present, and future. Married With Benefits™ FamilyLife Podcast Network We got married because we thought we’d be better together rather than apart. So why is it so easy to feel isolated from your life-long partner? Host, author, and fellow married pilgrim, Brian Goins, tackles the relational pitfalls, from the trivial to the tragic, that move couples towards isolation rather than experiencing the real benefits that come from saying “I do.” St. Josemaria Institute Podcast St. Josemaria Institute Tune in to the St. Josemaria Institute Podcast to fuel your prayer and conversation with God. On our weekly podcast we share meditations given by priests who, in the spirit of St. Josemaria Escriva, offer points for reflection to guide you in your personal prayer and help you grow closer to God. The meditations are typically under 30 minutes so that you can take advantage of them during your time of prayer, commute, walk, lunch, or any time you want to listen to something good. The St. Josemaria Institute was established in 2006 in the United States to promote the life and teachings of St. Josemaria, priest and founder of Opus Dei, through prayer, devotions, digital and social media, and special programs and initiatives. Father Bill W. Father Bill W. I’m an Episcopal (Anglican) priest in recovery from alcoholism since 1972. I've spent my career in addiction treatment focused on 12-Step spirituality and exploring the pioneer history of AA. In discovering the lost 11th Step practice of Two Way Prayer, my program underwent a life-changing transformation. As Bill Wilson said, “ something was lost from AA when we stopped emphasizing the morning meditation." My mission now is helping people in 12-Step Fellowships explore a deeper understanding of spiritual practice and how it connects us to the "Great Reality" within. -Fr. Bill W.
