  • Have you ever undergone a period of exile in your life? In the Old Testament, the people of Israel were taken into exile, with some tribes becoming entirely assimilated into other nations. Is this sense of exile something we can relate to today? Do we occasionally find ourselves lost in the surrounding culture? Sister Alicia Torres joins Jeff Cavins to discuss the Exile time period in the Old Testament and contemporary forms of exile, such as fractured relationships, addiction, and a loss of faith.

    This is REAL, coming from a Catholic long struggling with addiction, and making progress...these are the people we need to reach out to...

    I am a Catholic priest. Nowadays, children may seem to live in a much better world than before, but in reality, I realize that it is not the case. The impact of media and the surrounding environment prevents children from growing up healthy, and this reality is deeply distressing. Nevertheless, I express my respect to everyone working to ensure that children grow up in a healthy way.

    [27:19] “We must lean on Jesus and on the treasures of our faith.”
    “From mortal they become immortal, from perishable, imperishable; from fleeting, eternal; in a word, from human beings they become gods...O munificence of the Lord most rich!...How great are the gifts of unutterable treasures!” ~St. Gregory of Nyssa
    Thank you, Jeff Cavins and Sr. Alicia Torres. God bless! 😀

    Gosh I needed to see this. My children were raised going to Mass and serving as altar servers and in music ministry. I pray every day that they return to the church. May God bless you both. Thank you.

    God bless you both and much love to Sr. Alicia. I got to meet her years ago briefly and she just radiated Christ to me and I look up to her for how she gives of her gifts freely to God (in service to the poor). We can learn so much from her witness.

    I loved this episode and her faith is such an inspiration! She sees Christ is these broken souls and is unabashedly and unapologetically speaking truth to these people with love. God bless you sister and your favorite scriptures are mine and I too am Peter. This episode resonated so powerfully with me! We are truly living in an exodus period.

    I agree…it is exposure to distort. When my son said a term that I had not taught him, that is the internet that did that. He is homeschooled, so I am relatively aware of what is in his vocabulary.

    i have been enjoying these talks and this one is no different, and i also concur Christ would return as a man, but what was Adam's first form like? AFTER the taking of the rib (and maybe more), we have the idea of Male & Female... So, what might Adam's body have been like, prior to his... 'operation' (he WAS knocked out for it and woke up adjusted)? 😊

    Speaking of Psalms, check out Psalms 137:9 "Blessed the one who seizes your children and smashes them against the rocks" ~ Yeah, that is horrible advice from the Bible.

    • @kool2buzz
      @kool2buzz 8 місяців тому +2

      Please understand it in the right context. Read the verse before 137:9
      8 O daughter of Babylon, who art to be destroyed; happy shall he be, that rewardeth thee as thou hast served us.
      Psalm 137:8
      Psalmist is pleading to God to remember His covenant with the people, bring justice by defeating all enemies. ( babies = nations. )

    Jesus said to 'HATE' your family. / (Luke 14:26 ~ Jesus speaking) “If anyone comes to me and does not HATE father and mother, wife and children, brothers and sisters-yes, even their own life-such a person cannot be my disciple"

    Why would you grift Health Insurance when the Bible 'Guarantees' complete healing at no charge? James 5:14-15 / Mark 16:16-18.
