WOM5 – The Penitential Rite – The Way of Mystery with Deacon James Keating – Discerning Hearts Podcast

Summary: <br> Episode 5 – The Penitential Rite<br> The penitential rite of the mass, while not the pivotal point, it is one of the most important points of the mass, and key in our moral conversion…it’s about the crucifixion to sin, meeting evil with love.<br> Deacon James Keating, Ph.D., the director of Theological Formation for the Institute for Priestly Formation, located at Creighton University, in Omaha.<br> The Vatican II documents remind us that the spiritual journey is not made in a vacuum.  God has chosen to save us, not individually, but as The People of God. The Eucharist must help Christians to make their choices by discerning out of Christ’s paschal mystery. For this process to take place, however, Christians must first understand how the Eucharist puts them in touch with Christ’s passion, death, and resurrection, and what concrete implications being in touch with this mystery has for their daily lives.<br> <a href="https://www.discerninghearts.com/catholic-podcasts/the-way-of-mystery-the-eucharist-and-moral-living/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Check out more episodes at “The Way of Mystery” Discerning Heart podcast page</a><br> <br>
