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? Yet, Jesus Christ challenges and obliges the Church to teach all of the nations…so…Timecode:0:00 - Introduction4:00 - Our Guest8:20 - What is The Church?19:30 - The Symbols of The Church 23:15 - The Organization of The Church29:45 - Membership of The Church41:00 - Is Christ in the World?44:00 - Is The World Evil?58:00 - The Importance of Dialogue1:09:54 - True Dialogue1:17:50 - Final Notes From GuestSupport the show

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...Timecode:0:00 - Easter Experiences6:00 - Why pray this way?10:00 - What is The Liturgy?16:30 - A Liturgical Vision18:30 - Rituals Order Existence26:00 - The Source of the Liturgy31:00 - The Liturgy and The Tradition35:30 - An Existential Treasure38:30 - Active Participation46:00 - The Beauty of The Repetition51:45 - Sacred Garb56:00 - The Eschatological DimensionSources:- Eschatology, Christology, and Liturgy by Thomas Rausch- The Spirit of the Liturgy by Joseph Ratzinger- The Catechism of the Catholic Church- The Forgotten Language by Fr.

In recent times, we have experienced two major films: 1) Dune: Part Two and 2) 'Cabrini’ by Angel Studios. Timothee Chalamat, Zendaya Coleman, John Lithgow, Cristiana Dell'Anna all showed up and showed out. And, while these two films are wildly different, they were similar in that they were promoted to be revolutionary films. Were they? Did they set a new standard for movies? Regarding Cabrini, did it set a new standard for movies about saints? Or, was it a “flop”, a film that, as criticized, promoted feminist propaganda?In this episode, we uncover the significance behind Cabrini - a captivating film with profound insights. To do this, we reflect on some of its quotes, characters, and artistic brilliance. We hope that our insights, in the end, bring you to an appreciation for good cinema, St. Cabrini, and, above all, Jesus Christ.
