Dad Talk - Seventh Sunday in Ordinary Time (Cycle C)
Dad Talk guide to the Sunday Mass readings
David steals a spear from Saul only to give it back again. Jesus explains how we’ll all be “measured.” And Paul’s letter says we shall bear the image of Jesus, the “last Adam.” What could these diverse readings possibly have to do with each other? We’ll put all the pieces together – and share a bonus story about Grandpa Bob – 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!
