Too Sweet: Hozier | The Call of Perfection
This is not Hozier's "Take me to church", but it is another one of his recent hits titled: Too Sweet. This song is catchy, poetic, and, admittedly, intense.
The protagonist in the story of this song expresses a tension he finds in himself brought about by his lifestyle and the lifestyle and persona of his beloved.
Why? Why this tension? Tune in to find out!

The Church and The World | Dr. Grzegorz Ignatik
In this episode, Logos discusses the nature of The Christian Church and its relationship to the world. It describes the Church’s salvific truths as well as affirms the need for the Church, if it is to fulfill Christ's command to teach the nations, to enter and recognize the world as something fundamentally good.
Is the world evil? Does the world have anything to offer The Church?
Maybe, the best way for The Church to avoid confusion, sin, and struggle is for Her to fall into Herself and build a society that only includes Her members?

Logical Worship | The Liturgical Nature of Man
In this episode, we dive into the need for the liturgy and rituals. St. Paul talks about humanity needing to enter into "logical worship"...what is he talking about?
Wait, isn't the Catholic Church just a cult? Those vestments, those middle aged men called "priests", the kneeling and standing, the funky smelling smoke, the weird repetitive prayers all smack of a weird cult; therefore, its pointless.
But, is that so? Why do worship God in this way? Isn't the importance of the Christian life to "have a personal relationship with Jesus Christ?"
Well...let's talk about that...

Logos Hits Different
Logos podcast has been a profound experience in my faith journey. As a former Protestant now Catholic, the insightful and deep discussions from Max and Joey resonate with me on a spiritual level. They have a gift for making Catholic teachings relatable and meaningful, especially for someone like me, navigating faith in married life.
Each episode is more than just a conversation; it's a deep dive into spirituality, actually leaving me with lasting insights and provoking me to think and learn more independently. This podcast is a true gem for anyone seeking to deepen their understanding and experience of Catholicism.
If these guys are our future priests, the Church’s future is…
In this podcast, seminarians Max and Joey respond to the call to evangelize the culture with good humor and devotion. It’s apparent that they’re men of prayer, and also of courage - unafraid to engage the various realities facing most ordinary Catholics living in the middle of the world today. If they’re a sign of what we’ll have in the next generation of priests, the Church’s future is bright...and funny.
