To most, the Incarnation is so familiar that we have lost touch with what a scandal the manger would have been in its time.
In this Advent and Christmas episode, Matt Fradd welcomes Biblical scholar, Dr. Scott Hahn, to examine prophetic texts of the Old Testament that lay the ground for the arrival of the Christ child, covenants that prepared the way, and the earth shattering reality of God becoming an embryo.
Together they uncover the layers and depth of the Christmas scriptures and God's plan for you, while exploring typology, the significance of Mary's role in salvation history, and the meaning of the manger.

Spoke too little about Revelation
Ha! "The prayer before the Hail Mary" is spot on and made me laugh. My husband and I are converts from Southern Baptist/Pentacostal backgrounds and I remember the first time praying the rosary hiding in my bed. Thanks for sharing your story, it resonates with our own on multiple points, I especially appreciated the "stages of conversion" because that terror phase is hard to explain sometimes. And thanks Matt Frad for all you do! You were the 1st Catholic podcast I listened to. :)
this is a phenomenal episode
Thanks for this episode. I love Joseph Pearce. It was an awesome interview.

did anyone elses audio cut out at 01.15.05?
lol... sacrifice is real, ya? the answer is yes. but in the words of Maxwell Smart, when confronted with questions like this: "and loving it!" Today, was my grandsons first communion...my heart was bursting with pride to see the man, my son has become, in raising a good child, children in fact, and the same for my daughter and her two girls... so many blessings. so yes, marriage does all those things, but I'd not change a thing.
This podcast seems to continually slide from actual theological content to intensely conservative Christian opining. There are problematic issues with the social Media episode. I will state one of the issues here. The reference on women’s decline in happiness fails to site the actual study. A quick search will produce these statistics, where one can easily discover that ‘feminism’ is NOT the cause for that decline but rather that there are now more reference points to consider.

minute 20 got clearer
I really enjoy listening to Fr Malachy. I didn’t know he was back from Nicaragua. This was great. Thanks for bringing him, Matt.
Interesting discussion. The straw man about Luther was pretty cringe, though.
The irony of the Synod of Synods asking for less hierarchy.
EDS is no joke
This is supposed to be a mainstream catholic podcast...sometimes they deal with interesting topics and interview a writer or a theologian but mostly the show is all about criticising anything that doesn't conform to the narrow viewpoint of the host and most of his guests. The usual white, male, right wing, homophobic stuff disguised in religious zeal. All signifiers but no signified. But this episode is a revelation. This particular brand of bigotry presented as piety is taken to a whole new level. Both the guest and the host dismiss university education and academics ( they really show their true, dark age colours...of course, education gets in the way of indoctrination). The host makes it clear that according to his narrow limited world view, women are for marrying and making good wifes. The guest quotes Bin Laden and goes on to say he would rather his son joined the Taliban than live as an atheist. He follows this with several homophobic remarks. The host comments on how happy he
but I suppose one must be grateful for small mercies: Pearce is no longer a neo nazi, just a Brexiteer.
brexit was not a step in the right direction. it was and is a disaster.
Green Tomatoes! 🤣
I believe that sometimes God calls us to grieve for those who need it, who can't grieve for themselves yet. Your grief for her pain and destruction is doing spiritual good.
