    Redemptive Suffering (Part 2)

    This week, Jake and Bob continue their conversation on redemptive suffering. They reflect on the Song of the Suffering Servant from Isaiah 53 and how Jesus redeems suffering itself.

    Back to the Basics

    This week, Jake and Bob go back to the basics of healing. They reflect on the idea that it is not what happens to us that harms our souls, but rather our response. Jake and Bob also discuss the problem of evil done to another, the challenges that come with accepting the reality of what happened, and the role of pain in the healing process. 

     

    Key Points:

    • There is a difference between blame and responsibility. It is important to hold abusers accountable while also recognizing our personal role in the healing process
    • Our souls are harmed in our response to a trauma but that does not mean we are responsible for the trauma itself
    • Grace and divine assistance are necessary for acknowledging the reality of what happened and experiencing healing
    • Healing is the process of being restored to our original God-given glory. It involves encountering God as the source of our healing and developing a right relationship with Him
    • Healing is not just the removal of pain, but the freedom to will the good and the capacity to live in accordance with our true nature

    Friends of the Bridegroom w/ Fr. John Burns and Sr. Miriam James Heidland

    This week, Jake and Bob are joined by Fr. John Burns and Sr. Miriam James Heidland to talk about their ministry called Friends of the Bridegroom. Their ministry seeks to renew the Church through the healing, renewal, and expansion of women’s religious life in America. They also discuss the nuptial meaning of every vocation, the unique beauty women bring to the Church, and how in every state of life, we are all called to live for another.

     

    Key Points:

    • Priests and religious play a vital and unique role in the health and healing of the Church
    • A Church without religious sisters is like a family without a mother
    • No matter our state of life, we are not meant to be living for ourselves. Our hearts are made to be lived for another
