Introduction

The Sunday Catholic Word is the only podcast to look at the Sunday Mass readings from an apologetics perspective. In this episode, we're going to focus on a total of five details that come from the three readings for this upcoming 17th Sunday of Ordinary Time, year A. One detail comes from the first reading, which is taken from 1 Kings, chapter 3, verse 5 and verses 7 through 12. The relevant topic there is the divinity of Jesus. Two details in the second reading relate to the problem of evil and the mystery of predestination.
