Episode notes
Julian of Norwich's Showings
- Julian of Norwich, a 14th-century mystic, had near-death visions during the bubonic plague.
- These 16 'showings' of Jesus, as she called them, inspired her influential book, 'Revelations of Divine Love'.
All Shall Be Well
- Julian of Norwich's famous quote, "All shall be well," speaks of ultimate restoration (apokatastasis).
- This isn't mere comfort but an eschatological hope of all things being made well in the end.
Peter's Return to Fishing
- After Jesus' resurrection, Peter, uncertain of his future after denying Jesus, goes fishing.
- Six other disciples join him, and they fish all night but catch nothing.
