S1E72 - The 2nd Commandment: "Jesus Christ!" ... Expletive or Beginning of Prayer?

Update: 2023-08-28

Description

Today, we read CCC, 2110 - 2167 and discuss the Second Commandment: "You shall not take the name of the Lord your God in vain." The name of God - and the name of every person - is an icon of the greater reality... The name of God, the name of Jesus Christ, points to an all-holy being, and, so, to say the name cavalierly - or disrespectfully - is to degrade the being, the person, whom that name represents. On the other hand, to speak lovingly and admiringly of God is to love and admire God Himself.
