One life out of billions. Who cares? I guess I do. I thought about writing a book. I like to write but I get bored. So, perhaps telling my story will be easier. I hope the journey means something. Welcome to my life.

    Am I A Christian?

    This is the last episode. It is the culmination of years. I end up with defining how I see myself as a follower of Jesus. I have lots of gratitude for David Paterson, without whom I may never had attempted this podcast. And to Dave Edwards, who provided the original artwork. And, of course, to you - the listener, and to all who played a part in my life.

    Season 4 Episode 7 Being and Becoming

    This was one of my most difficult episodes to complete. The subject of Non-Dualism and Christianity has been on my mind for years, but I never really thought deeply about it. This is my attempt to do so.

    Season 4 Episode 6: The Jesus Prayer

    As I got closer to returning to Christianity, I discovered The Jesus Prayer, and began praying it. It has become a natural part of my life. In this episode I share a little of its history, what writers on prayer have said about it, and how I practice it today. As promised here is the link to the documentary on the Jesus Prayer I talked about. Mysteries of the Jesus Prayer

    The Catechist

    A big part of my life for the last 18 years or so is being a catechist, walking along with those seeking to become Catholic Christians. In this episode I share my journey from my mother's father, through my mother, some personal experiences, and finally getting formal training, and then the years of discovery on what it means to be a catechist.

    On Liturgical Mindfulness

    The Sacred Liturgy of the Mass engages us body, soul, and spirit. In order to remain focused I came up with a system I call Liturgical Mindfulness. In this episode I also read from an essay I wrote about three questions I have regarding what we do in the Mass. I've done my best to come up with some answers. I hope you find this interesting.

    Consecrating the World

    Last time I shared about what it meant to be a priest in Christ through baptism in the context of the Liturgy of the Mass. In this episode, I look at what it means to be a priest in Christ through baptism in the context of the world. Moving from the common priesthood to the cosmic priesthood.

    Doing the World the Way the World Was Meant to Be Done

    Today I talk about the Common or Baptismal Priesthood. What is it, and how does it relate to the Levitical Priesthood of the Old Covenant. I end up talking about the purpose of the priesthood and the liturgy.

    What Happens During the Liturgy Anyway?

    After a 3 year hiatus, it is time to finish this podcast. In this episode we journey from when I was received into the Roman Catholic Church, the various ministries I was led into, and how my relationship to the Liturgy of the Mass changed.
