Description

Embark on a spiritual odyssey this Lenten season as we absorb the timeless wisdom of Bishop Jacques-Bénigne Bossuet. Through his profound reflections, we'll explore the depths of prayer, confronting the ways in which the Lord's Prayer, "Our Father," can reshape our understanding of divine adoption and God's boundless love. Prepare to be stirred by Tuesday's meditation on the Father's infinite affection and what it truly means to be His child, enveloped in a relationship of paternal tenderness and guided by the Holy Spirit.This week, we traverse the landscape of Bossuet's sermons, allowing his words to illuminate our path to a closer connection with the divine. As you settle in with us, expect to be moved by the powerful recognition of our filial cry to "Abba, Father" in times of need, and how this invocation is a testament to our intrinsic bond with the Creator. Let the spirit of sonship resonate within as we confront our earthly struggles and the temptations that steer us away from our spiritual journey. Join us as we pause, reflect, and renew our hearts in this most sacred time.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!”
