Callers choose the topics during Open Forum, peppering our guests with questions on every aspect of Catholic life and faith, the moral life, and even philosophical topics that touch on general religious belief.
Questions Covered:
- 10:24 - I have been Catholic for 4 years and wouldn’t be Catholic without you. Does Mary have any relation to the Eucharist, earning her a Eucharistic title?
- 20:57 – Are we meant to tithe a straight percentage? How much does debt play into the tithing amount?
- 33:50 - The early Church Fathers seem to teach that Genesis should be taken literally, but it seems like Genesis 1 and 2 contradict each other. Can you help me to sort this out?
- 39:02 – Considering Ephesians 2:8-9, is it true that you need to take communion to have eternal life? Aren’t we saved by grace alone?
- 48:14 - Are the letters and books not included in the Bible still worth reading?

St. Thomas Aquinas on Praying without Ceasing
About our drink:
Lagavulin Offerman Edition is an Islay Single Malt Scotch Whisky aged for 11 years inspired by Hollywood celebrity Nick Offerman from the hit TV show Parks & Recreation. “I have traveled the world and sampled many attempts at pleasing nectars, but it is solely this distillation of Islay; a tiny, charismatic Scottish isle, that has claimed my palate.” – Nick Offerman
About our gear:
Legacy Icons is proud to offer our own selection of the best incenses we have found from around the world. Whether for use at home or in church, these are sure to augment your prayers as they “arise like incense” before God.
About our topic:
7 conditions for authentic prayer: Complete, humble, continual, devout, vigilant, insistent, and loving.
Forms of continual prayer:
1. One who does not neglect the times they should be praying – prays always.
2. Pray constantly means to pray continuously. Everything we do comes from desire. If we desire what is good, namely God’s will, then our works can become a form of prayer.
3. Giving of Alms. A cause of continual prayer. For the person who receives the alms, prays for you, even when you are asleep.
