S11 Episode 37 – Tree of tales
In this episode, the dogs talk about Connor's participation in the National Eucharistic Revival (1:15), Rob shares a recent decision to change his approach to campus ministry (14:04), and Mike closes with a Tolkien inspired discussion on living in freedom (20:50). Quotes: “The way the Eucharistic faith will be revitalized is not through us being really smart or eloquent, but by putting our own oxygen masks on first: praying Holy Hours in front of the Blessed Sacrament, devotion to the celebration of the Mass, Eucharistic reverence, and care of the poor.” (Connor, 9:55) "Humility is freedom.” (Connor, 12:58) “We committed to two things for next year: We’re going to live the sabbath in a biblical way and everything that we do has to be done with excellence, that’s it.” (Rob, 15:55) “I don’t want to have attachments to my own agendas, but actually discover things as I go, which means I need to have the freedom to follow where life unfolds.” (Mike, 20:57) "Whose voice is that, because it’s not God’s.” (Rob, 24:30) Media Mentions: National Eucharistic RevivalMark 6The Simpsons (1989- present)Tree of Tales: Tolkien, Literature, and Theology (Eds.
