Dad Talk - Fifteenth Sunday of Ordinary Time (Cycle C)

Dad Talk guide to the Sunday Mass readings

In today’s reading from Deuteronomy, Moses says “Just Do It.”®  Do what?  Jesus explains with the parable of the Good Samaritan; but to a 1st Century Jew, the parable is even more meaningful than it might appear to our modern eyes.  Learn all about it—and about Paul’s beautiful passage in his letter to the Colossians—in today’s Dad Talk. 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!
