Description

Make Lent of 2024 edifying with daily meditations for Lent from the famous French orator, Bishop Jacques-Benigne Bossuet.Embark on a serene exploration of the soul as we uncover the essence of detachment in our third Lenten meditation. Drawing wisdom from Bishop Jacques Bossuet's profound work, we delve into the call for a radical detachment from the temporal world, aligning ourselves with St. Philip and the Apostles' teachings. In this episode, I guide you through understanding how seeing the Father can satisfy our intrinsic yearning for completeness, offering solace and fulfillment beyond the fleeting allure of material possessions and societal accolades.As we journey deeper into this sacred season, we emphasize the transformative practice of detachment, a theme that not only resonates during Lent but serves as a pivotal element in nurturing one's spiritual life. With Bishop Bossuet's insights illuminating our path, we are reminded of the importance of letting go—today, over this weekend, and throughout our Lenten journey.Support the show********************************************************https://www.avoidingbabylon.comLocals Community: https://avoidingbabylon.locals.comRSS Feed for Podcast Apps: https://feeds.buzzsprout.com/1987412.rssSpiritusTV: https://spiritustv.com/@avoidingbabylonRumble: https://rumble.com/c/c-1626455Odysee: https://odysee.com/@AvoidingBabylon

Avoiding Babylon was started during the height of the COVID-19 pandemic. During these difficult and dark days, when most of us were isolated from family, friends, our parishes, and even the Sacraments themselves, this channel was started as a statement of standing against the tyrannical mandates that many of us were living under. Since those early days, this channel has morphed into an amazing community of friends…no…more than friends…Christian brothers and sisters…who have grown in joy and charity. As we see it, our job here at Avoiding Babylon is to remind ourselves and those who enjoy the channel that being Catholic is a joyful and exciting experience. We seek true Catholic fraternity and eutrapelia with other Catholics who, like us, are doing their best to live out their vocation with the help of God’s Grace.  Above all, we try to bring humor and joy to the craziness of this fallen world, for as Hillaire Belloc has famously said:“Wherever the Catholic sun doth shine,There’s always laughter and good red wine.At least I’ve always found it so.Benedicamus Domino!”
