Episode 114: Year C – 3rd Sunday of Ordinary Time
In today’s episode, we focus on six details in the readings for this upcoming 3rd Sunday of Ordinary Time, Year C. The first detail is the whole of the first reading, taken from Nehemiah 8:2-4a, 5-6, and 8-10. It’s not necessarily a detail that comes up in apologetical discussions.

Episode 112: Year C – The Baptism of the Lord
This upcoming Sunday is The Baptism of the Lord. And the Gospel reading for this feast during Year C is Luke’s account of the event, taken from Luke 3:15-16, 21-22. There are several things that we could focus on.

#111 Epiphany of the Lord: Revisiting Key Themes and Exploring the Magi and Christ’s Birth Date - Karlo Broussard
Episode 111: Year C – The Epiphany of the Lord
