S3E6 - The first discovery on the journey with St. Joan of Arc

What this episode covers

St. Joan turned my glasses around so I could see road signs. In the previous episode, we arrived at the moment when Joan of Arc became the center of my intentionality. Her importance to my life became branded in my soul. It was a “divine glance” of grace. In this episode we move forward with her along the Trail of the Dogmatic Creed - the trail of understanding but not knowing what we understand. St. Thérèse remains at our side, and the “Thérèsian effect” of understanding but not knowing becomes a phenomenological journey guarded on each side of the trail by the metaphysics and magisterium of the Church in its public revelation. We cross over from descriptive phenomenology to a more metaphysical attentiveness to Truth, Beauty, and Goodness. Edith Stein introduces us to the combined world of metaphysics and phenomenology through The Science of the Cross. Joan turns my glasses around so I can see the signs on the pathway. We cross with St. Joan and St. Thérèse over to a world of Augustinian Platonic order.
