Podcasting

Apple is launching a new ad campaign to promote its podcast. The move comes in the wake of an ongoing lawsuit between Apple andEpic.

But more brilliant to O'Savior is the one approaching. Before the star proclaimed to the Magi, now the Father shows you to the world. So in a homily that a priest gave here at the monastery recently, he was talking about this about what happens at the Feast of the Nativity versus what happens in the in the Feast of Theophany. And he says, he said, you know, at the Feast of the Nativity. We're invited into the Holy family. We're invited into the participation of this family of Mary and Joseph and Jesus and that's this beautiful invitation.

I just I love the fervor with which the Lord speaks in these in these words that that have been prayerfully written. And I love this theme of light.
