Faithfulness, Fruitfulness, and Fear | 33rd Sunday in Ordinary Time Year A | Ep 65

Lee Benson sits down with Fr. Jonathan Torres to discuss and comment on the readings for the 33rd Sunday in Ordinary Time Year A. This episode discusses three types of fear, human, servile, and fear of the Lord; what it means to bear fruit; the soul as archetypally feminine; the differences between children of light and darkness; the faithful, good, useful servant versus the wicked, lazy, useless servant; the symbolism and meaning of the Parable of the Talents.

But first, the Sacred and the Profane: Saint Albert the Great and insomnia.
