Dad Talk - First Sunday of Lent (Cycle A)
Dad Talk guide to the Sunday Mass readings
This Sunday's readings contain the entire history of our fallen nature, from Original Sin in the Garden of Eden, to the resulting concupiscence passed to each generation, to our redemption in Christ's death and resurrection. We'll examine the connections between these readings—and the incredible symbolism of what was going on in the Garden—in this week's Dad Talk. As we enter into Lent, PLEASE share with a friend, and God bless! Dad

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!
