Deacon Mike here! Greetings in Christ the Lord. I podcast readings from the saints and other things that strike me as inspiration for living in Christ. I hope these episodes help to shape your heart. The pic highlights the notion that I am a martial artist but most of all a disciple of Jesus. Picture courtesy of www.hthaostudio.com.

    Reading Teresa of Avila Mansions DMP 003

    St. Teresa of Avila, a doctor of the church, has a lot to say about prayer. She was a very clear teacher and based her ideas about prayer and spirituality upon her own life. Her witness of the way God activates supernatural virtues in us, of the way He seeks to reside within us, is outstanding. A good place to start is The Way of Perfection: tinyurl.com/5d6y2hyu

    Reading St. Augustine DMP 001

    Off and on, we'll return to St. Augustine. My readings will come from the 2nd edition translation by Frank Sheed, from Hackett Publishing, used with their kind permission. I highly recommend the Sheed translation. Others don't have the "feel" of Augustine's poetry, in my experience. Of course, YMMV. A highly recommended source that shows off the Doctor of Grace in his variety as a bishop would be: https://www.amazon.com/Augustine-His-Words-William-Harmless/dp/0813217431
