Dad Talk - Fifth Sunday of Ordinary Time (Cycle C)
Dad Talk guide to the Sunday Mass readings
Lots of questions from today’s readings. What’s the significance of Isaiah’s “lips” being unclean? Why did Paul mention the resurrected Jesus appearing to so many people? Where is the Lake of Gennesaret that Luke mentions in his Gospel? And why are we hearing a second reading about the resurrectionbeforethe Lent and Easter season? We'll answer those questions and more in today’s Dad Talk.

About Podcast
Seeking to understand more about the Sunday Mass readings, I started reading Bible commentaries after Mass several years ago, then giving a 15-minute talk to our children about the context of the readings (history, geography, etc.) and their relationship to each other. We called these "Dad Talks." Over time, we started to share them with others. To dive even deeper, I recommend acquiring your own copy of my source materials: Brant Pitre & John Bergsma's "A Catholic Introduction to the Bible," the Catholic Commentary on Sacred Scripture set, and various books mentioned in the Talks. God bless!
