The Nature of Penance
Logos Podcast
What is penance, really? Is it just giving up chocolate for Lent — or is it something much deeper? In this episode of the Logos Podcast, Father Max and Father Joseph unpack the true meaning of penance: not just as a Lenten practice, but as a virtue, a sacrament, and a lifelong conversion of heart. Drawing from St. Thomas Aquinas, St. John Paul II, and the rich Catholic tradition, they explore metanoia, the Sacrament of Confession, satisfaction for sins, fasting, mortification, and the powerful difference between active and passive penance.
