Description

As we journey alongside Bishop Jacques Bossuet through the reflective season of Lent, today's meditation brings us face-to-face with the essence of our faith—the Great Commandment. Imagine the entirety of Christian moral teaching distilled into two profound precepts: to love God wholeheartedly and to love our neighbor as ourselves. Bishop Bossuet's insights illuminate how these commands encapsulate the Decalogue and breathe life into the Scriptures, offering a beacon to guide us through the intricacies of both faith and daily life.Join us in contemplating the simplicity and depth of Jesus' teachings that Bishop Bossuet so eloquently unpacks. This dialogue invites us to internalize the dual precept of love that should inform every thought and action, casting fresh light on the familiar passages and encouraging a transformation from within. Let's allow this powerful episode to act as a spiritual compass, directing our Lenten walk and enriching our relationship with the Divine and those around us in a profound and practical way.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!”
